What is Renuva?
Our team describes Renuva as a cosmetic injectable designed to add volume where needed by stimulating the growth of your own fat. It is injected by our experienced and trained providers to ensure natural-looking results and long-lasting changes.
What is Renuva made from?
Renuva is formulated with collagens, proteins, and growth factors that add volume where needed, just like your own fat. The injectable has a matrix that allows it to work as a scaffold to rebuild fat in the area where it is needed. It is an excellent alternative to traditional fat grafting as it doesn’t require additional procedures like liposuction to harvest one’s fat and transfer it where needed.
What are the benefits of Renuva injections?
Our team may recommend Renuva for patients for many reasons, including:
- Minimal downtime/recovery
- Long-lasting results
- Natural-looking improvements
- Immediate improvements
- Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin volume improvement
What is the cost of Renuva?
The overall cost varies depending on how much is needed to achieve the desired results. When you consult with our team, they can evaluate you, discuss your goals, and give you an idea of the approximate cost for injections.
What can I expect during my appointment?
Renuva appointments are fast and easy! We apply a topical numbing cream to the area where injections will be made, and our skilled aesthetician will administer the injections into the facial areas where volume loss has occurred. The results are immediate and will last longer than other types of dermal fillers and neuromodulator injections. Patients love the ability to rejuvenate their appearance without downtime or recovery associated with other alternative treatments, including surgical interventions.
Where else can Renuva injections be used?
Renuva can be used in various areas of the body and not just the face. Some other locations where patients might consider using this injectable include:
- Depressed scarring
- Hip dips
- Cellulite dimpling
- Hands
- Liposuction irregularities/imperfections

BEFORE AND AFTER
BOTOX®
- Produced by the clostridium botulinum bacteria responsible for relaxing the muscles.
- This substance weakens the muscles by suppressing the release of acetylcholine: the neurotransmitter responsible for triggering muscle contractions.
- Essentially, the botulinum toxins block the signals that would normally tell your muscles to contract.
- This mechanism laid the foundation for the development of the toxin as a therapeutic tool for facial spasm, blepharospasm and strabismus in the ’80s, and wrinkles and hyperhidrosis in the past few years.
- Most recently, it has been used to correct square jaw lines.
- Botox® is very safe, and it has been approved by the FDA.
How does Botox® work?
- Most wrinkles on the face are caused by muscles that are repeatedly over-contracted
during facial expressions. - Botox® injected into these muscles blocks acetylcholine, which induces muscle constriction, temporarily weakening the facial muscles in the area and relaxing the skin’s surface, thereby “removing the wrinkle”.
- Since Botox® removes wrinkles by paralyzing particular muscles associated with specific facial expressions, there are no complications.
- Patients usually begin seeing results within 2-3 days; however, to appreciate the full impact of the injections, it takes about a week.
- Generally, patients getting their first Botox® treatment will find effectiveness will last approximately 4 – 8 months.
- A check-up may be scheduled one week after procedure, if there is no discomfort.
Am I a good candidate for Botox®?
Botox® is an effective treatment for individuals with over-developed jaw muscles. You are a good candidate if you can feel hard muscles behind your jaws when you look in the mirror and clench your teeth. We can guarantee 100% that your lower face will become oval. If your jawbone is square, usually your jawbone will have to be surgically cut. But strong jaw muscles play a role in the square appearance, too. Hence, if you are too scared to pursue surgical treatment, Botox® may be your best option to considerably improve your facial appearance. The results are usually very satisfying with a single Botox® injection, and a follow-up injection after 3-6 months for long lasting effects.

XEOMIN®
XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) the purest neurotoxin in the world, for intramuscular use, is a prescription medication that is injected into facial muscles for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines (frown lines) in adult patients. XEOMIN® should be administered no more frequently than every three months.
FILLERS
- Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm Ultra XC, Juvederm Ultra Plus XC, Juvederm Volume  Radiesse, Bellatero, Sculptra.
- Fill in and plump up creased and sunken areas of the face, naturally restoring a smoother, more youthful-looking appearance
- The underlying tissues that keep our skin looking youthful and plumped up begin to break down with age, often leaving laugh lines or facial creases over the areas where this muscle movement occurs.
- Injectable fillers may be used in conjunction with Botox® to maximize wrinkle removal when Botox® alone cannot resolve the problem.
