Many injectables like Juvederm and Restylane provide instant improvements by filling in wrinkles and adding volume to the skin.
Treatments such as BOTOX® and Dysport® require no recovery time, allowing patients to continue with their day immediately.
While results vary, many injectables offer lasting effects: Kybella provides permanent results, while fillers can last over a year.
Injectables can address a wide range of issues you may face. For example, BOTOX® can be used for excessive multiple conditions.

Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. These effects typically resolve quickly and can be easily managed with minimal downtime.
The duration of the results depends on the type of injectable used. Some products, like BOTOX®, may require touch-ups every 3-4 months, while others, like Bellafill, can last up to 5 years or more.
Results from Kybella, which is used to reduce under-chin fat, can be seen as early as four to six weeks after treatment. Optimal outcomes usually require 2 to 4 sessions, depending on the amount of fat being treated and individual responses.
Both BOTOX® and Dysport® are types of botulinum toxin injections used to reduce facial wrinkles. The main difference lies in their formulation, which can cause Dysport® to spread to a wider area after injection, making it ideal for larger areas, while BOTOX® may be preferred for more precise targeting of wrinkles.

Dr. Doug Mest and the amazing staff at Pier Medical always make me feel like a beauty queen! No one is better with a needle than Dr. Mest, fast with a light accurate touch you barely feel any sting. Bruising can occur with some injections but he never leaves a mark on me.

Dr Mest is friendly and funny and most importantly, he really knows what he’s doing - an artist and a scientist. He’s always taken the time to answer my questions, and I ask a lot of questions. The people here are an amazing team, and it’s obvious that they care.
