Botox, Dysport & Daxxify (Neuromodulators)
-
Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Daxxify) are a cosmetic treatment that works by blocking nerve signals — which temporarily causes muscles to relax. This results in the reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Neuromodulators are a safe and effective way to achieve a more youthful appearance.

Redness and swelling can be expected immediately after the injections and should resolve within 15-30 min after the treatment. Bruising may occur with any injectables.
You should not schedule your appointment within two weeks of any vaccines or illnesses (COVID-19/flu) or any dental/medical procedures.
-
Most patients start to see results within 3-5 days, but it will take up to 2 weeks to see the full effects of neuromodulators. Results last 3-4 months for Botox and Dysport and 4-6 months with Daxxify. (This can vary depending on area/dosage and patient.)
Ideally, schedule this treatment 4 weeks prior to any special events to allow for the best results and a touch-up if necessary.
Dermal Fillers
-
Facial/Dermal Fillers are designed to restore volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial features to give you a more youthful appearance. Fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a natural occurring substance in your body.

The frequency of HA filler treatments depends on the area treated, the type of filler used, and individual metabolism. Generally, fillers will last 6-18 months.
We will develop a personalized treatment plan expertly customized to your individual needs and goals. Multiple treatments and visits may be required to reach desired outcome.
Sculptra
-
Sculptra is an injectable that stimulates collagen production. After the age of 20, we lose approximately 1% of our collagen every year. Sculptra works by stimulating long-term collagen production. Sculptra’s main ingredient, Poly-L-lactic Acid (PLLA), is a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic substance.
The collagen stimulation from Sculptra helps to restore facial volume, reduce wrinkles and folds, and provides long-lasting and natural results. As the collagen rebuilds, it improves skin thickness, firmness, and elasticity, leaving a more youthful appearance.

Radiesse
-
Hyperdilute Radiesse works by stimulating natural collagen and elastin production, improving skin quality, texture and firmness, and reduces crepiness and skin laxity.
Radiesse is a filler made up of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHa). When diluted with saline and lidocaine, it creates a smoother, thinner, consistency that can be injected more evenly into the skin for biostimulation rather than volumizing.

While you may experience swelling or bruising, these side effects resolve within a few days to a week. You can resume your normal activities but avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours after.
-
This is usually done in 2-3 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart to achieve desired results. The results develop over 2-3 months and last 12-18 months. Regular maintenance treatments help keep the skin looking firm, hydrated and youthful looking.
At Northshore Aesthetic Physician we will develop a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and goals.
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
-
PRF, or platelet rich fibrin, stimulates the body’s natural healing response and promotes tissue regeneration. PRF has high concentrations of platelets, growth factors, and white blood cells, which release healing properties gradually for long lasting benefits.
-
Undereye rejuvenation
Hair restoration
Combination with microneedling
-

-
PRF is a natural and effective option for patients looking for regenerative treatments. PRF works best with multiple sessions (usually 3) for long-term collagen stimulation and hair regrowth.
After the initial series of treatments, maintenance treatment is recommended every 6-12 months.
Kybella
-
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that targets and treats submental fat, commonly known as “double chin.” When Kybella is injected, it destroys fat cells, resulting in a more defined jawline and profile. The fat cells do not regenerate, so Kybella provides long-lasting results. To reach your desired outcome, Kybella often requires 2-4 treatments, but results are long-lasting.

MicroTox®
Instant Skin Tightening
-
Developed exclusively at InjectAbility® Institute MicroTox® describes an innovative use for muscle relaxers such as Botox® or Dysport®, that accelerates the effects, producing an instant tightening and lifting result.
When injecting muscle relaxants using this technique, the muscles respond immediately with a skin retraction which is similar to a ‘shrink wrap’ effect. The skin will subsequently appear to be tighter and more compressed which allows fine lines to dissipate. No more waiting 3-7 days for your Botox® to take effect! You will walk out of the office with a smoother, tighter lift to your face or neck.

Theratox®
Instant Relief of Myofascial Pain
-
Taught exclusively through the InjectAbility® Institute, our TheraTox method works therapeutically throughout the body. For pain purposes, TheraTox uses small amounts of FDA-approved neuromodulators such as Botox®, and pairs them with our trademarked technique that combines identification of localized trigger spots, hydration to the area, and therapeutic dry needling. The analgesic effects offer instant relief from pain via the mediation of pain receptors, as well as a decrease in inflammation in the area. Botox has been used for years as a pain mediator and works through blocking calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which causes inflammation and pain in the nerves. Pain-relieving effects can last months to years. Additionally, if lifestyle habits change that caused the initial pain, then that pain can be alleviated permanently.
Botox can also be used in other therapeutic ways using the TheraTox method. For example, to reduce the effects of allergic rhinitis (chronic runny nose) or chronic nasal congestion. Another transformative use for TheraTox is the prevention of scar formation right after injury or surgery, or the reduction of the visibility of scars even years after the scar formed.

This simple injectable procedure addresses multiple areas of concern for the nose. From humps to bumps, texture to bulbs, to droopy tips, and slimming of the nostrils; NasalTox® uses small amounts of FDA approved neuromodulators such as Botox®, or Dysport® and places them in specific areas to smooth out the nasal skin envelope.

SkinPen Microneedling
-
Looking for a non-surgical way to refresh your complexion? SkinPen™ Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that may support your skin’s natural repair process. This treatment is commonly used to improve the appearance of texture, tone, and clarity—with little to no downtime.
-
SkinPen™ is a microneedling device designed to create tiny microchannels in the skin’s surface. These controlled micro-injuries may trigger your body’s natural healing response, helping to stimulate collagen and elastin production. The treatment is often explored to support the appearance of:
Acne scars
Fine lines and wrinkles
Enlarged pores
Uneven skin tone or texture
Dark spots or melasma
Stretch marks or other skin imperfections
This treatment is considered safe for a wide range of skin types and may be performed on areas such as the face, neck, hands, and décolletage.
-
SkinPen microneedling involves three key phases:
Phase I: Inflammation
The device creates microchannels that may activate the body’s natural response to begin the healing process.
Phase II: Proliferation
New skin cells and supportive structures begin to form as part of the repair cycle.
Phase III: Remodeling
As the skin continues to renew, the outer texture and tone may gradually improve, revealing a more refined appearance over time.
-
Before Treatment: A topical numbing cream may be applied to enhance comfort.
During Treatment: The SkinPen device is gently moved across the skin to create controlled micro-injuries.
After Treatment: You may experience mild redness or tenderness, which often resolves within 24–48 hours.
Each session typically takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the area treated. A series of 3 or more treatments spaced approximately 4 weeks apart is often recommended for optimal results.
