Neurotoxins and Neuromodulators: Your Path to Youthful Skin
Understanding Neurotoxins and Neuromodulators
At Aesthetically Oriented, we specialize in advanced anti-aging treatments using neurotoxins and neuromodulators. These innovative products, including Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin, have revolutionized the field of cosmetic dermatology by providing effective, non-surgical solutions for wrinkle reduction and facial rejuvenation.
How They Work
Neurotoxins and neuromodulators work by temporarily blocking nerve signals to specific muscles, reducing their activity. This relaxation of targeted facial muscles leads to a smoothing of wrinkles and fine lines, resulting in a more youthful appearance. The effects are most noticeable in areas with dynamic wrinkles, such as:
- Forehead lines
- Crow's feet around the eyes
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
Our Products
We offer three leading neurotoxin treatments:
- Botox: The most well-known brand, with a long history of safe and effective use.
- Dysport: Known for its quick onset and natural-looking results.
- Xeomin: A highly purified formula that may be ideal for those who have developed resistance to other neurotoxins.
Each product has unique characteristics, and our expert practitioners will help determine the best option for your individual needs.

Dermal Fillers and Biostimulators
What Are They?
Dermal fillers and injectables are prescription gel substances designed to rejuvenate and enhance facial features. When injected into targeted areas, these innovative products work to smooth wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging. Beyond their immediate volumizing effects, they also stimulate collagen production and improve the elasticity of aging skin. This makes them an ideal choice for both men and women who are looking to correct minor skin imperfections and achieve a more youthful appearance without resorting to invasive surgeries that require extensive downtime or recovery periods.
Benefits
Dermal fillers and injectables offer a range of benefits for those seeking to enhance their facial aesthetics. Primarily, they allow for subtle yet impactful changes to your face by reducing the appearance of wrinkles, lines, folds, and other imperfections. The result is a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance that looks natural and refreshed. One of the key advantages of these treatments is their non-invasive nature, involving little to no discomfort during quick, outpatient appointments. Unlike surgical procedures, there's no downtime or recovery period required, allowing you to return to your normal activities immediately after treatment. Perhaps most appealing is the immediacy of results, which often continue to improve over time as the products work with your body's natural processes.

Types of Fillers
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps keep skin hydrated and volumized. HA fillers are the most common type of dermal filler.
- Restylane: A brand of HA filler known for its versatility. It's used for various areas including lips, cheeks, and reducing wrinkles.
- RHA Collection: This is a newer line of HA fillers designed to move more naturally with facial expressions.
- Revanesse Versa: Another HA filler brand, known for producing less swelling than some other options.
- Juvederm: A popular brand of HA filler, with several products designed for different areas of the face.
Bio-Stimulator Injectables
These work differently from HA fillers. Instead of just adding volume, they stimulate your body's own collagen production.
- Sculptra Aesthetic: Made from poly-L-lactic acid, it gradually replaces lost collagen, providing a more subtle, long-term improvement.
Calcium-Based Fillers
These fillers contain calcium-based microspheres suspended in a gel.
- Radiesse: Initially provides immediate volume, then stimulates natural collagen production for longer-lasting results.
Fat Transfer Injections
This involves using the patient's own fat, typically harvested from areas like the abdomen or thighs, then injected into areas needing volume.
- Plasma-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Injections: This is an advanced form of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. It uses the patient's own blood components to stimulate healing and rejuvenation.
Post-Treatment Expectations
- Return to normal activities immediately
- Slight swelling or redness may occur
- Any side effects typically resolve within 1-2 days
Lip Fillers and Augmentation: Enhance Your Natural Beauty
Understanding Lip Fillers and Augmentation
At Aesthetically Oriented, we offer advanced lip enhancement treatments using state-of-the-art dermal fillers. These non-surgical procedures are designed to add volume, improve shape, and enhance the overall appearance of your lips, helping you achieve a more youthful and attractive look.
How Lip Fillers Work
Lip fillers are injectable treatments that work by adding volume beneath the skin's surface. Most modern lip fillers are made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body. When injected, these fillers:
- Add volume and plumpness to the lips
- Improve lip shape and symmetry
- Smooth out fine lines around the mouth
- Enhance the border of the lips (vermilion border)
- Provide hydration to the lip tissue
Our Products
We offer a range of premium lip filler products, including:
- Juvéderm: Known for its smooth consistency and long-lasting results.
