Fillers
Over time, our skin naturally loses volume and elasticity. Sun damage and repetitive muscle movement are just a few factors that lead to wrinkles. Dermal fillers are an excellent tool to replenish lost volume and restore the skin to its youthful appearance.
Dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a replica of a naturally occurring molecule in the body. HA is known for its ability to hold one thousand times its weight in water, resulting in deep hydration. Dermal fillers restore lost volume, define facial contours, and improve visible signs of aging.
Botox® is a neurotoxic protein produced by the naturally occurring bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. Botox® injections are a safe and effective way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By relaxing the muscles that cause these unwanted lines, Botox® can give you a more youthful look. With just one treatment, you’ll see a noticeable difference in the smoothness and texture of your skin
Dysport® is a botulinum toxin that temporarily relaxes your facial muscles, giving you a smoother, more youthful appearance. It specifically treats moderate to severe frown lines between your eyebrows by reducing the muscle activity that causes them. Just one injection into each of the 5 points between and above your eyebrows will temporarily prevent contractions and give you a more relaxed and refreshed look. Dysport® is an easy, convenient way to reduce the signs of aging and help you feel more confident about your appearance.
Jeuveau® is an FDA approved prescription injectable that uses purified botulinum toxin to temporarily relax the small muscle groups that cause frown lines and wrinkles. It is used in adults for a short period of time (temporary) to help with moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines). Treatment is short with no downtime.
Xeomin® is a uniquely purified anti-wrinkle injection (without unnecessary proteins*) for frown lines. It is an FDA approved prescription medicine that is injected into muscles to temporarily improve the look of wrinkles in areas including eyebrows, forehead, and around the eyes. Xeomin is a safe and effective treatment option that can provide noticeable results almost immediately to within 3-4 days.
At LJ Aesthetics, our skilled injectors uses neurotoxins in a variety of ways. Our neurotoxin services include
Treatment of the upper face using neuromodulators such as Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, and Xeomin to provide a naturally rested and refreshed look.

Using neurmodulators such as Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, and Xeomin you can treat the masseter muscles and create a facial slimming effect along with treating symptoms of TMJ. In some cases, Kybella will also be recommended to further create an oval or heart shaped lower face.
Neurotoxins are injected into areas of the face, scalp, and neck to help relieve muscular tension, resulting in a decrease of headaches and migraines.
Neurotoxins can be injected into areas of the shoulders, upper back, and neck to help relieve muscular tension resulting in a decrease of shoulder/neck tension and a slimmer appearance to the shoulder line and neck.
Excessive sweating, otherwise known as Hyperhidrosis, can be managed by using neuromodulators such as Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, or Xeomin injected into the armpits, palms of hands, and soles of feet to minimize sweat gland activity.
Horizontal lines in the neck often caused by looking downward at today’s latest technology, can be treated with neuromodulators to minimize the appearance of these lines which can bring back a more youthful appearance to the neck.

What concerns does Sculptra treat and where can it be injected?
Sculptra stimulates collagen production to improve the appearance of smile lines, temples, and cheeks. It increases volume and tightens the skin.
Sculptra can be injected into the knees, elbows, or abdomen to improve the texture and tone of loose skin.
The chest is one of the most challenging areas to address when it comes to aging. Sculptra can stimulate collagen production to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the décolleté.
Sculptra can be injected into the buttocks to stimulate collagen production, leading to a more rounded and lifted appearance.
Strategic injections of Sculptra can be made into the legs, thighs, flanks, and arms to minimize the appearance of cellulite. Smoother and tighter skin will be revealed as the structure of skin proteins is redistributed.
NOTE: Sculptra results can last between two to three years. You’ll first see results three to four months post-treament. Schedule your appointment with LJ Aesthetics to see if Sculptra is the right treatment option for you!

Remove, Rebuild, & Replenish with TriHex Technology®
ALASTIN Skincare® formulates products with TriHex Technology®, a proprietary blend of active peptides and botanicals specifically engineered to work with the skin to help clear out old collagen and elastin proteins that have been damaged by sun exposure and aging while supporting the skin’s natural ability to produce new collagen and elastin.1
1. Remove
TriHex Technology includes Tripeptide-1 and Hexapeptide-12 that support the REMOVAL of aged collagen and elastin to help jump-start the skin’s natural rejuvenation process. Collagen and elastin break down and clump together due to photodamage and aging, which can slow down the production of new, healthy collagen and elastin in the deepdermal structure of the skin.

FAQ's
LJ Aesthetics carries Restylane, Juvéderm, Reveness, and Radiasse dermal fillers. Each product line is different and rests at various price points. During your consultation, you can discuss your preferred filler and learn more about the products we use and endorse at LJ Aesthetics.
Fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance found in the body, and are used to eliminate wrinkles, add volume and hydration to lips, and replace volume loss. Fillers also raise scar depressions and soften the appearance of deep wrinkles.
Dermal fillers are made of a soft and gel-like substance with a hyaluronic acid base. Dermal filler injections plump the skin and provide deep hydration. The results are semi-permanent and last six to twelve months. The body will naturally break down the filler and metabolize it over time. We use fillers to:
- Smooth lines around the nose and mouth (marionette lines, smile lines, and parentheses).
- Restore lost volume to the cheeks and temples.
- Soften vertical lip lines.
- Plump and hydrate the lips.
- Smooth chin creases.
- Improve symmetry in facial features
During your filler appointment, we will discuss the appropriate treatment options for your goals. If you are a good candidate for dermal filler, the injection may occur the same day. The treatment area will be cleaned, and you will receive a topical anesthetic to numb the area before injection. Your injector will administer the dermal filler into the treatment area with a needle or cannula. Most patients note that filler injections feel similar to a pinch. The pain dissipates quickly but is commonly followed by swelling, light bruising, and tenderness at the treatment site.
The results are immediate. You can even ask for a handheld mirror to watch as your injector administers the dermal filler under the skin! Swelling will occur within minutes and mask the final results for up to two weeks. After two weeks, the effects of your treatment will settle into place. Maintenance appointments are required every six to twelve months to maintain the results of your filler injections.
