Botox, Dermal Fillers

AND PRP THERAPY

Cosmetic injectables like BOTOX and facial fillers like Juvederm are some of the most popular and transformative non-surgical procedures available today. Both of these treatments are injected beneath the skin’s surface, producing results that turn back the clock. BOTOX fights fine lines and wrinkles, while dermal fillers like Juvederm enhance the natural contours of the face and help with sagging, hollow skin. The results enhance your natural beauty, lead to a younger appearance, and produce a boost in beauty and confidence.

Not only are these injectable procedures quick and non-invasive, but they require no downtime and produce results almost immediately. Additionally, Botox has been proven to help treat migraines and reduce excessive sweating, making it both a cosmetic and a medical miracle.

At Panacea Aesthetics, we approach wellness holistically and are always looking for points where beauty and physical health intersect. We are excited to be a part of your journey, and we love empowering our Orange County patients.

What Does BOTOX Do?

BOTOX is most commonly used to reduce and treat wrinkles in the face. It smooths skin and restores a youthful appearance. It’s benefits can be applied to several other areas for other purposes, as well. In addition to the face, patients can also use BOTOX to treat or address the following issues:
  • Severe underarm sweating (hyperhidrosis)
  • Cervical dystonia, a neurological disorder that causes
    severe neck and shoulder muscle spasms
  • Uncontrolled blinking (blepharospasm)
  • Eyes that point in different directions (strabismus)
  • Chronic migraine
  • Overactive bladder

What Target Areas Does BOTOX Treat?

  • Frown lines
  • Forehead lines
  • Bunny lines – lines across the bridge of the nose
  • Crow’s feet – lines on the upper two thirds of the lateral eye
  • Mentalis dysfunction – ‘dents’ in the chin
  • Brow lift – creates a lifting effect of the brow

Botox

BOTOX is tried and true and has long been used by doctors to treat wrinkles and facial creases. There are countless benefits from BOTOX cosmetic injections, and a rested, youthful appearance through a non-surgical treatment lands at the top. Injections of highly diluted botulinum toxin have become one of the most common aesthetic procedures performed in the country, and BOTOX is a common favorite among our Orange County patients.

What’s the Science Behind BOTOX?

When we smile, frown, squint, or make other facial expressions, we are causing our facial muscles to contract. The constant contracting of these facial muscles over long periods of time is what creates wrinkles. A loss of skin elasticity with age also contributes to the lines and wrinkles we see on our faces. When BOTOX is administered to specific muscles, it works by blocking the nerve signals from activating muscle contractions. This muscle inactivation ultimately leads to the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. Treatment is quick, relatively comfortable, and can provide tremendous results.

How Long Does BOTOX Last?

BOTOX treatment does not provide permanent results and requires ongoing injections as the body breaks down the BOTOX over time. BOTOX typically lasts 3-4 months. Some candidates may experience a slightly shorter period of results, while others might see results carry for up to 6 months.

Can BOTOX Treat Migraines?

Although this isn’t as well-known, BOTOX injections are actually approved by the FDA to offset both migraine headaches and hyperhidrosis, a medical condition that causes excessive (and sometimes unpredictable) sweating.

How Much Does BOTOX Cost?

BOTOX usually starts at $12 per unit, with a standard forehead treatment usually requiring about 20 units. Each patient’s case will be different based on the need and amount of area to be treated, but sessions usually start around $300.

What Can Fillers Improve?

Panacea Aesthetics offers a range of injectable fillers that each have a specific use and function. Our most popularly used filler products are:

 

Juvederm

Corrects age-related volume loss in the face. It is also used for augmentation of the chin region to improve the chin profile.

Juvederm Vollure

Corrects moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds around the nose and cheeks.

Juvederm Volbella and Juvederm Ultra

This unique filler is specifically formulated to target the lips, both providing lip augmentation and the correction of perioral lines.

What’s the Procedure Like?

Dermal filler injection procedures are non-surgical and relatively simple. After consultation, our team will mark specific areas of the face with a marker in preparation. Some topical numbing cream may be applied before the needle is injected into your skin. Juvederm injections also contain a small amount of pain-reducing lidocaine to help minimize pain and discomfort during treatment.

Facial

FILLERS

Dermal fillers have become some of the most popular and effective treatments for signs of aging in the face. Our Orange County patients see dramatic results from these non-invasive injections, and like BOTOX, the treatments are safe, non-surgical, and can be done relatively quickly and with little to no downtime.

While BOTOX targets wrinkles and fine lines through one activation method, facial fillers work in a slightly different way. These gel-like substances are injected not to block nerves, but rather to firm and plump skin, providing volume to the face. They can plump and lift cheeks, chins, jawlines, and temples; they can fill out thin lips, and even restore volume to bony, thin hands. With Panacea Aesthetic’s artistic eye, results can be remarkable.

Although only temporary, facial fillers cost much less than a traditional face lift and can achieve similar results. Although individual outcomes will vary by patient, results from our line of Juvederm fillers usually last around 12 months, with some patients requiring minor touch ups at the 6-month mark.

At Panacea Aesthetics, we are proud to offer a range of fillers by Juvederm, including Juvederm Voluma, Juvederm Vollure, Juvederm Volbella, and Juvederm Ultra. Each of these injectables targets a specific area and offers a slightly different outcome. Men and women interested in dermal fillers visit our Newport Beach office from all over Orange County and the Los Angeles area, and we’d love to welcome you, too.

How Long Does It Take to See Juvederm Results?

Results should show immediately, providing instant gratification, but it usually takes another two weeks to see full results develop as the injected gels settle into the skin. During this two-week period, it will be possible for your health care provider to make small adjustments in the results before the gel fully integrates with tissues and sets into a lost-lasting position.

How Long Does Juvederm Last?

Although individual results will vary by patient, results from our line of Juvederm fillers usually last around 12 months, with some requiring minor touch ups at the 6-month mark.

How Much Does Juvederm Cost?

Juvederm treatments range from $750 to $1,200 per syringe, with the total cost depending on the area treated and total number of syringes needed to achieve your specific goals. Our team will work with you directly to customize a treatment plan to determine pricing specific to you. We also regularly offer special promotions and packages that will usually lower the price of these sessions. To stay looped in, sign up for our newsletter and other updates from our team.

How Does PRP Work?

Blood is drawn from the patient and then spun down in a machine to isolate platelets and other healing factors. It is then resuspended into a platelet-rich solution, which is then applied to the skin.

How Long Do PRP Injections Take?

Patients are usually in the office for about an hour and a half. Treatments can be repeated every four weeks if needed, and aside from bruising, patients should experience little to no negative side effects.

Do PRP Injections Hurt?

Generally speaking, PRP injections are not painful, although there can be some discomfort. Some topical numbing cream may be used at injection sites to minimize discomfort. For the vast majority of patients, there is little to no downtime necessary after receiving a PRP injection. You may feel a bit sore for two to three days, and you may be prescribed pain medication to ease your discomfort.

Platelet-Rich

PLASMA THERAPY

Another new technology in facial injectables is Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, which uses the patient’s own blood to restore and rejuvenate skin. PRP is a preparation of platelets in concentrated blood plasma with regenerative growth factors used to stimulate skin healing, collagen production, and other important proteins that support the skin.

How Much Does PRP Cost?

Like with BOTOX and fillers, PRP pricing will vary depending on the amount of injections desired. Adding injections into a microneedling procedure starts at just $200 above the microneedling procedure price point, while standalone injection treatments start at $600. These prices will change depending on your specific needs, so please contact us to determine what’s available or you.  

All of these facial injections have major benefits and achieve slightly different results, so please come visit us at our Orange County medical spa, and let us work directly with you to formulate a customized plan to help you restore your youth and feel confident in your skin.
