Used to add volume and fullness to depleted areas of the face, injectables offer exciting treatment alternatives to those who prefer not to have surgery.
Our skin’s collagen and elastin production decreases as we age, leading to wrinkles and fine lines. At The Skin Retreat in Little Rock, AR, we offer neuromodulators and dermal fillers to address these signs of aging. Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, and Restylane temporarily relax the muscles responsible for wrinkles, providing a smoother complexion. Dermal fillers, rich in hyaluronic acid, add volume to the skin, reducing deeper creases and folds for a refreshed youthful appearance. Our skilled injectors are dedicated to ensuring your treatments are safe, effective, and tailored to your aesthetic goals.
Neurotoxin injectables inhibit nerve impulses from reaching the facial muscles responsible for wrinkles and fine lines. When injected directly into these muscles, neuromodulators temporarily inhibit the nerve signals that control facial expressions like frowning and squinting. On the other hand, dermal fillers address facial volume loss by smoothing out lines and wrinkles, restoring elasticity, and adding plumpness to targeted areas of the face, enhancing overall aesthetics.
Neuromodulator injectables like Botox, Dysport, and Restylane are increasingly popular for reducing wrinkles and lines by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. These treatments enhance appearance and alleviate chronic migraines and excessive sweating. Dermal fillers offer numerous benefits including improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles and fine lines, restored volume, and non-surgical facial rejuvenation. They address dark under-eye circles, cheek augmentation, lip enhancement, non-surgical rhinoplasty, and chin augmentation. Additionally, fillers can provide a liquid facelift, brow elevation, earlobe repair, and acne scar treatment. Together, neuromodulators and fillers can help you achieve a youthful and rejuvenated look.
Combining injectables and dermal fillers with other treatments can significantly enhance skin rejuvenation. Pairing either with the Halo Laser can smooth the skin by triggering collagen and elastin production. This non-ablative laser creates tiny holes in the skin, prompting it to think it’s injured, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. Meanwhile, the Moxi Laser is a gentle option for younger patients seeking preventative care, revitalizing the skin with no downtime. Another great option is the Forever Young BBL by Sciton, which uses BroadBand Light for photorejuvenation, targeting the chromophore to achieve radiant, youthful-looking skin.
Injectables and dermal fillers are transformative solutions for those looking to combat the signs of aging without undergoing surgery. Neurotoxin injections, like Botox, weaken the muscles responsible for wrinkles and fine lines, offering a smoother and more youthful appearance. Remarkably, these injections have been shown to increase collagen in the skin by up to 167%, providing long-term anti-aging benefits. On the other hand, dermal fillers are designed to replace the volume lost with age, immediately plumping and smoothing out the skin. The treatment is quick, often completed in under an hour, with no downtime required.
Results from dermal fillers typically appear immediately, though some may take one to two days to fully manifest. However, neurotoxins generally need up to two weeks to achieve maximum effect.
Neurotoxin treatments, such as Botox, are primarily used for temporarily improving the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines in adults. Beyond their cosmetic applications, these injectables have a range of medical uses, including migraines by inhibiting specific neurotransmitter releases in the brain. Additionally, Neurotoxins can alleviate pain associated with temporomandibular joint disorder and treat hyperhidrosis, a condition characterized by excessive sweating.
Facial fillers, on the other hand, offer numerous enhancements to improve skin texture, providing a tighter, smoother, and rejuvenated look. They address frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and bitterness lines, and can add fullness to lips, cheeks, and chins. They also smooth wrinkles from aging, treat sunken eyes and acne scars, and enhance the appearance of aging hands and jawlines.
Before your procedure, we meticulously assess your individual concerns and address any questions you may have.

Together, we formulate a personalized plan that aligns with your unique needs, ensuring significant improvements. With our extensive experience and a variety of dermal filler and neurotoxin options, we provide expert recommendations for exceptional cosmetic results.
Before undergoing your dermal filler or neurotoxin procedure, it is advisable to avoid alcohol, anti-inflammatory medications (such as Ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, or Aleve), aspirin, and Vitamin E for up to a week. This precaution helps reduce the potential risk of post-treatment bruising.
Before your dermal filler and neurotoxin treatments, we will thoroughly discuss your desired outcomes to ensure a personalized approach. Depending on the specific treatment, we may apply a numbing cream to enhance your comfort.
Our highly skilled and certified injector will use a fine needle or cannula to administer the dermal fillers to the targeted areas. For neurotoxin treatments, a minute needle will be used to precisely inject the neurotoxin into the specified regions. This procedure is quick and virtually painless, typically taking only a few minutes to complete.
Neurotoxins like Botox generally take up to two weeks to reach their full effect and typically last around three to six months. While mild side effects such as redness or bruising can occur, they usually resolve within a few hours. On the other hand, the cosmetic improvements from dermal fillers are often visible immediately! Some fillers may take longer to show results, typically between 24 to 48 hours.

The only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler for dynamic wrinkles and folds
Dynamic wrinkles and folds appear in areas of the face that move repetitively. Your face is dynamic, making millions of movements and micro-movements every day. Movements like squinting, frowning, laughing, and talking create dynamic wrinkles and folds. These wrinkles and folds can be difficult to treat because dermal fillers may cause the area to appear stiff or unnatural when the face moves.

It is made to be more like your skin’s natural hyaluronic acid than other traditional fillers and is the first advancement in hyaluronic acid filler science in more than a decade.

Dermal fillers and injectable neurotoxins available in Little Rock are FDA-approved, ensuring their safety and effectiveness.
We take pride in ensuring the best aesthetic results for our clients. If, for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with the outcome of dermal fillers, the effects can be reversed. This is achieved by injecting a solution that dissolves the filler, reversing the changes. However, unlike dermal fillers, neurotoxins cannot be reversed. Patients must wait for the neurotoxin to naturally wear off, which typically takes 3 to 6 months.
Neurotoxins and dermal fillers generally come with minimal risks and side effects. After neurotoxin injections, you might experience minor and temporary bruising or tenderness at the injection site. While dermal fillers are safe and noninvasive, they can cause mild side effects like redness and light bruising; significant bruising is rare.
