Botox

Here at Balanced Health & Beauty we are no stranger to the evolution of Botox®. We have been researching its efficacy since it emerged and was brought to the market by Allergan. We demand that every Botox® treatment begin with a personal consultation that focuses on deep lines and wrinkles called “expression lines”. FDA approved Botox® relaxes the muscles and softens lines of the face.

Botox® reduces the appearance of:

forehead lines • crow’s feet • frown lines • smoker’s lines • chest and neck lines • bunny lines • marionette lines

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical procedure for temporarily smoothing moderate to severe glabellar lines – the vertical frown lines between the eyebrows that look like an “11″ – in adult women and men aged 18 to 65. BOTOX® Cosmetic relaxes the dominant facial muscles that cause the “11s” to form by blocking nerve impulses that trigger wrinkle-causing muscle contractions, creating a smoothed and improved appearance between the brows. Results can last up to four months and may vary with each patient.

BOTOX® Cosmetic possible side effects and risks

Botox and Dysport

These injections are used to temporarily improve the look of your moderate to severe frown lines without changing the look of your whole face. The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas.

Over time, the muscles above and between the eyebrows repeatedly contract and tighten, causing wrinkles. But, with just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and over the eyebrows, these products block the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines..

Vitamin B12 Injection

Vitamin B12 is essential for helping to form new, healthy cells in the body. It also boosts energy, helping to increase activity levels.

The vitamin cocktail included in the B12 and Lipotropic shots are compounds that enhance liver function and increase the flow of fats and bile from the liver and gallbladder. By definition, a lipotropic substance decreases the deposit or speeds up the removal of fat within the liver. The key amino acids used to make these shots are Choline, Methione, and Inositol. These lipotrophic agents prevent the accumulation of fats in the liver. A fatty liver can cause a sluggish liver function! They also detoxify amine, which increases metabolism.

At Balanced Health & Beauty, we provide these shots either ala carte or combined with our Vitamin C Oxygen Facial with B12 shot!

Juvederm

JUVÉDERM® XC is the smooth gel filler that your doctor uses to instantly smooth away wrinkles around your mouth and nose. With just one treatment, you’ll get smooth and natural-looking results that last up to a year.

JUVÉDERM® XC is manufactured using HYLACROSS™ technology, creating a smooth-consistency gel. It is infused with lidocaine to improve comfort during treatment. With JUVÉDERM® XC you get the smooth results you expect, with the improved comfort you want.

Everyone will notice, but no one will know.

Everyone’s skin ages differently and JUVÉDERM® XC may be used to rejuvenate multiple problem areas. From smile lines to vertical lip lines, you can smooth away unwanted wrinkles and restore natural contours.

Voluma XC

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC injectable gel is the first and only filler FDA-approved to instantly add volume to the cheek area. It gives you a subtle lift, helping to restore contour and a more youthful profile, for up to 2 years, in patients over the age of 21. It's different than JUVÉDERM® XC and works on a different area of the face. JUVÉDERM® XC smoothes out moderate to severe wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth, like parentheses. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC, however, adds volume to the cheek area.

Young, healthy-looking skin contains an abundance of a naturally hydrating substance called hyaluronic acid hyaluronic acid. But as you age, sunlight and other factors can reduce the amount of hyaluronic acid in your skin. The lack of hyaluronic acid causes your skin to lose structure and volume, creating unwanted facial wrinkles and folds - like those parentheses lines around your nose and mouth.

Using a dermal filler like JUVÉDERM® XC is a safe and effective way to replace the hyaluronic acid your skin has lost, bringing back its volume and smoothing away facial wrinkles and folds.

Restylane Lyft

Get UpLyfted

Natural-looking volume and definition for your cheeks.

Restylane® Lyft is now approved by the FDA for cheek augmentation and the correction of age-related midface contour deficiencies in patients over the age of 21. This is in addition to treating moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines

What Is
Restylane Lyft?

As we age and our faces lose volume, some of us begin to look for ways to regain more definition in our cheeks without surgery. Restylane Lyft, formerly known as Perlane-L®, is an injectable hyaluronic acid gel used to correct volume loss and treat wrinkles in the face.

Restylane Lyft is the first and only FDA-approved filler indicated to provide lift to cheeks and add volume to correct and smooth smile lines (nasolabial folds).

Restylane

Treat your moderate to severe wrinkles and folds and enhance your lips

How does Restylane work?

Restylane works immediately by adding volume to smooth away wrinkles. A clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid, Restylane is specifically formulated to act like your body's own hyaluronic acid, and eventually breaks down naturally.

About treatment volume

Treatment volume should be limited to 6.0 mL in wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds, and limited to 1.5 mL per lip (Restylane, Restylane-L and Restylane Silk only), as greater amounts significantly increase moderate and severe injection site reactions. If a volume of more than 3 mL total is needed to achieve optimal correction for lip enhancement, a follow-up treatment session is recommended.

Hair Loss PRP Treatment

Hair loss can occur in both men and women, and this procedure is designed with that in mind. PRP is equally effective as a way to counteract female pattern baldness as it is for our male patients. The best candidates for a PRP treatment are patients who have slight to moderate hair loss, who want to take charge and regain confidence in their look.

PRP is an acronym for “platelet-rich plasma.” This procedure involves three easy steps. First, blood is generally drawn from the arm. Next, the blood is processed into a centrifuge which separates it into three different layers: platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma, and red blood cells. The platelet-rich plasma is drawn from the separated blood, and the rest is not used. The PRP is then injected into your scalp and hair follicles.

The PRP procedure is given typically three times every four to six weeks.

The plasma injected during the PRP procedure works to heal your scalp fast around the hair follicles. Plasma that is platelet rich, releases growth factors and stimulates healing by increasing the number of reparative cells in the affected area of your body. Growth factors are natural substances made by the body to fight aging or other damage.
