Your New Jersey Injectable Options

Many people experience changes to their appearance due to the natural aging process, including volume loss, skin laxity, and fat accumulation. Dr. Brys can help address these changes with injectables, rejuvenating the skin and revitalizing your appearance.

Injectable treatments typically use biocompatible substances like hyaluronic acid, deoxycholic acid, and poly-L-lactic acid, making them safe and appropriate for most patients. With minimal downtime or discomfort, injectable treatments deliver immediate or gradual effects that offer non-surgical results that can last for 3 months to 2 years, depending on the treatment type and individual response.

Revance RHA fillers have multiple formulas to address unique facial concerns.

  • RHA 1—Redensity Superfine filler designed to address the delicate lines around your lips.

Sculptra

Sculptra® is a poly-L-lactic acid injectable that stimulates collagen generation over several months. It creates gradual and natural-looking results while delivering results that last 2 years or more. With a unique formula, Sculptra® helps the body regenerate its own lost facial volume to improve deep wrinkles and folds.

Kybella

FDA-approved Kybella® is a minimally invasive treatment for moderate to severe submental fat. Injectable Kybella® uses deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally made by the body, to contour the chin, jawline, and neck. Kybella® is injected into the submental fat beneath the chin to eliminate the fat cells, which are processed through the body’s waste system. By reducing the appearance of a double chin, Kybella® helps improve facial symmetry, proportions, and confidence.

Kybella® delivers long-lasting results gradually. Typically, patients reach their desired results in 3 to 5 treatments scheduled 4 to 6 weeks apart.

How Soon Will I See My Parsippany, New Jersey Injectable Results?

Each person will experience unique results from injectable treatments. Many factors can impact the longevity of your results, including your response, the product used, the area treated, skin health, and age.

Kybella® delivers long-lasting results after 3 to 5 sessions scheduled 4 to 6 weeks apart. However, many patients begin noticing results earlier. Results from Dysport can be seen as soon as 72 hours after injection, while Botox may take 1 week to take effect. Full results are seen 2 weeks after injection.
