Injectables in North Denver
The short answer
Injectables compares BOTOX, fillers, and facial fat transfer by the concern each treatment addresses. It may suit patients considering temporary muscle relaxation, added facial volume, or transfer of their own tissue. Patients across the Denver metro begin with an in-person evaluation before any plan is confirmed.
Thoughtful plastic surgery, planned around your goals.
Injectables in North Denver
Movement, volume, or both
Non-surgical treatment at 5280 Plastic Surgery® starts with a simple distinction. Lines that appear when you move are driven by muscle activity and are addressed with a wrinkle relaxer. Hollows and folds that are present when your face is at rest are usually a volume question and are addressed with filler, or with fat transfer where a larger change is wanted. Treating the wrong one is the most common reason people feel their injectable results did not do much.
Dr. John Samas, MD, FACS approaches injectables conservatively and in stages. Dosing can be added to at a follow-up visit, so a measured first treatment is easier to refine than an aggressive one. Where an injectable will not achieve what you are describing, we say so instead of treating anyway.
