Cosmetic Injectables in Toronto 

Over the last decade and a half, more and more people have opted for cosmetic injections. Both men and women have decided on “injectable” skin treatments for cosmetic concerns of all types. However, despite the popularity and the endless marketing, there is still ambiguity that surrounds the various treatments and procedures. What’s most important for consumers is to get well informed and educated before any treatment, and to stay away from preconceived ideas about short-term results, and long-term outcomes.

For those considering “injectable” skin treatments, it’s not the right time to price shop. There are no deals or bargains when it comes to professional treatment, At IGBeauty Studio, the skin care team comprises a certified medical injector, and fully licensed skin care experts. The clinic is at the forefront of new technology, and offers the finest quality products from around the world. Every client is in the most capable hands.

BOTOX® (Botulinum Toxin)

BOTOX®, which is naturally occurring as Botulinum Toxin, is a prescription medicine used to relax facial muscles, in an effort to neutralize frown lines and crow’s feet. In general, the treatment takes between a week and two to show any effect, and the results will last up to 4 months. BOTOX® has a way of gently relaxing the facial muscles that have folded, creased, and wrinkled over the years. The treatment itself involves a tiny quantity of BOTOX® being injected into a wrinkle or fold, using a micro-needle. The whole procedure takes some 10 minutes, and within a week or so, skin lines, creases and wrinkles are reduced. Botox is also used for treating excessive sweating.

Dermal Fillers

As we all progress in age, the skin’s natural collagen and elastin decreases gradually. This results in the skin losing much of its “fullness”, causing wrinkles and folds to be more prominent. Dermal fillers are designed to smooth out those wrinkles and folds, plump up the lips, and even improve the appearance of existing scars. Dermal fillers are often naturally derived (hyaluronic acid) and are injected directly into the skin. Dependent on the treatment, the effects are quite long lasting – from six months to years. Unlike other skin procedures, dermal fillers may well require a follow-up injection within the duration of a year.  

Teosyal Redensity I

Teosyal Redensity I is an exclusive formula that contains hyaluronic acid, along with other vitamins and minerals. The treatment is designed to restore the skin’s hydration, luminosity, and tone. Post treatment, visible results are evident right after the first injection. Teosyal Redensity I is simple and effective – it’s a treatment protocol that requires three sessions, at three-week intervals. Treatments specifically target areas of dull complexion and dehydrated skin, and are effective on the face, neck, and hands. Here again, a professional approach is highly recommended, in order to ensure optimum safety and quality results.

Teosyal Redensity II 

This dermal filler is used specifically in the “tear trough” area of the face (under the eyes). The treatment addresses fine lines, deep hollows, and dark circles right under the eyes. With antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, Teosyal Redensity II delivers long lasting results. The procedure is virtually painless, and allows the patient to resume regular routine immediately. In most cases, the effects can last for almost a year. These injections are effortless, with very little discomfort, and with a treatment time of between 15 and 45 minutes. For the right candidate, and under professional supervision, results are practically instant.

Platelet Rich Plasma

Platelet Rich Plasma, sometimes referred to as PRP, is a specialized treatment where a patient’s platelets are injected into the skin. Being rich in “growth factors”, the platelets serve to repair the skin and prevent the obvious signs of aging. Essentially, a PRP injection causes some skin wounding, activating platelets that repair the tissue in the “wounded” area. This treatment gives the skin a natural radiance and glow. It’s particularly effective for patients with acne scarring, because it helps the skin by activating natural healing responses. For patients who prefer a more natural approach to dermal fillers, PRP is the ideal.

Mesotherapy Treatment

Mesotherapy is a non-surgical, cosmetic procedure that delivers medications, plant extracts, and vitamins into different layers of skin. The injections typically involve fine needles, although there are also needle-free options available. While Mesotherapy is designed to reduce cellulite and dissolve fat, this treatment is also effective in treating fine lines and skin wrinkles (as well as stretch marks). Depending on the area of the body that is being treated, a so-called “treatment cycle” might entail 4 clinic visits, or as many as 10 clinic visits. Supervision and oversight must be in a professional skin care environment.
