Injectables
The Two Most Common Types of Injectables
Neurotoxins
Neurotoxins are wrinkle relaxers that work by reducing muscle activity in the treatment areas, which allows the skin to lie flat. This is a popular solution for lines around the eyes, between the eyebrows, in the forehead, and around the lips. With repeated injections, wrinkles may appear less severe as the muscles shrink from lack of use. BOTOX was the first treatment of its kind approved for cosmetic use and remains popular today.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers create a more youthful appearance by filling in deeper wrinkles and folds, giving a non-invasive lift to sagging skin. The filler itself is a soft, gel-like substance that is injected under the skin in a non-surgical procedure. Among the most popular dermal fillers are those like JUVÉDERM, which uses hyaluronic acids, a naturally occurring substance found in our skin that keeps it hydrated and provides volume.

We Offer BOTOX and JUVÉDERM A Solution for Wrinkles
BOTOX Injections
BOTOX is a refined neurotoxin that stops muscle contractions in the area where it is injected. By stopping the contractions, the skin around your eyes or lips can relax so wrinkles smooth out. You'll start noticing the benefits within 48 hours, and your results should last between three and six months.
Areas where BOTOX is typically used:
- Lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Crow's feet at the corners of the eyes
- Forehead wrinkles
- Bunny lines at the sides of the nose
- Lipstick lines around the mouth
- Marionette lines at the sides of the mouth and chin
- Chin dimpling
JUVÉDERM Dermal Fillers
JUVÉDERM fillers offer non-surgical rejuvenation by restoring youthful volume to your face. JUVÉDERM contains hyaluronic acid, a substance that contributes to skin elasticity and moisture retention and is also found naturally in the human body. By injecting the filler just under the skin, Dr. Hermann is able to add volume and lift sagging skin for a smoother, younger-looking face. JUVÉDERM is effective on:
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Vertical lip lines
- Thinning lips
Dr. Hermann also offers JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC, a thicker filler formulation that was created to give cheeks more volume. Once injected, it creates a higher, more defined cheek. Its special formulation allows it to last longer than many other fillers.
"Dr. Hermann and his team are excellent! He is very down to earth and has a great bedside manner. He and his nurse Morgan we're both very accessible after surgery when I had questions or concerns. Everyone in the office was very caring and kind. I am extremely pleased with my results. If I had it all to do over again, I'd pick Dr. Hermann and his team." Shannon Carreon, 5-Star Review
