What Are Injectables?

In the realm of aesthetic medicine, injectables comprise of any non-surgical treatments that are executed in the form of an injection for the purpose of rejuvenation. Neurotoxins and fillers are two of the most common types of injectable procedures. Neurotoxins weaken target muscles by blocking the release of a neurotransmitter that stimulates the muscles and ultimately soften wrinkle lines caused by muscle movement, particularly in the upper third of the face. The treatment effect of neurotoxins is realized within one to weeks after the procedure and lasts up to 3 months on average. Common neurotoxin brand names include Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®. Filler injections are intended to restore volume as well as to fill in wrinkle lines or deeper folds in the face. Hyaluronic acid is the most common type of material found in fillers. Depending on the type of product used and the area of the face treated, the treatment effect of fillers ranges from 6 months to 2 years. Common filler brand names include Juvederm®, Restylane®, Radiesse®, and Belotero®. Each injectable procedure is uniquely designed and executed by Dr. Ho according to the anatomic findings and surgical goals of the individual patient.

Dr. Ho’s approach to Injectable Procedures

As a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Ho specializes exclusively in aesthetic and reconstructive procedures of the head and neck region. She possesses dedicated training and extensive experience in injectable procedures from one of the top facial plastic surgery fellowship programs in the country under mentor Dr. Steven Dayan, a world-renowned leading authority in injectable procedures. Dr. Ho is regionally known for her signature non-surgical procedures in facial contouring and jawline contouring and attracts patients from all over Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York to Philadelphia and Wayne for treatment. Dr. Ho dedicates ample time and effort to establish realistic goals for every patient. Her treatment philosophy is centered on producing results that are natural and conservative. Dr. Ho often performs injectables in a stepwise fashion across a series of visits to avoid overtreatment and obtains pre and post-treatment photographs throughout the process to allow for objective comparison. Every patient leaves her office refreshed and confident without the rest of the world knowing what was done. Dr. Ho pursues a cannula technique for filler injections as this technique minimizes the risks of bruising and swelling as well as vascular compromise. Dr. Ho understands the pain tolerance of every patient is different and incorporates topical and local anesthesia techniques into her injectable procedures to ensure each patient is as comfortable as possible. She also maintains an excellent hygienic protocol to avoid infection as well.

This beautiful female patient came to me for a facial contouring consultation, interested in non-surgical options to achieve a more V-shaped facial appearance. We pursued two syringes of filler to her cheeks and chin and Botox to her masseters to create a beautiful and natural as well as snatched result.

FAQ’s

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Injectable Procedures compared to aesthetic surgery?

Injectable procedures are an appealing non-surgical treatment option as they are less invasive and involve less risks and downtime compared to surgery. In contrast to filler injections, surgery typically yields more permanent results and may be considered advantageous from a long-term cost benefit analysis when compared against repeated injectable treatments. Dr. Ho is experienced in both non-surgical and surgical methods for facial rejuvenation and will discuss with each patient the best treatment options that meet their aesthetic concerns and goals.

What is the cost of Injectables?

The price of Botox/neurotoxin is $15/unit, and the price of fillers starts at $700-800/syringe.

It can be scary to find a new doctor but I am very happy I have trusted Dr. Ho to work on me. She is friendly, never pushy, always explains thoroughly and answers any questions. She does beautiful work and I keep coming back to her. I highly recommend to meet with her.

Dr. Ho and her team are excellent! My new spot for injections and facials. I won’t trust anyone else with my botox or filler needs. I was nervous that cheek and under-eye filler would change my face but instead it contoured my appearance and I love it.

Thanks for all you do Dr. Ho and team! My skin is glowing )

Dr. Ho and her team are excellent! I was worried about cheek and under-eye filler and Dr. Ho did a phenomenal job. The facials I have been receiving are also amazing and tailored to my specific skin needs. I won’t be going anywhere else for skincare, botox and filler needs. Thanks for all you do!

I saw Dr. Ho for a consult and WOW! Dr. Ho and her assistant Kelly are amazing. Dr. Ho made me feel like all of my questions and concerns were valid. She talked to me about different solutions for my budget and how I can get exactly what I’m looking for. I’ve seen a few doctors before and I always got the sense that I was “taking too much of their time” by asking so many questions. This was not the case with Dr. Ho and Kelly, who were SO patient with me and made me feel heard and reassured that I was in the right place. On top of that, the injectable procedure that Dr. Ho performed on me was done flawlessly. She is very talented, careful and cognizant. She’s also very honest with what to expect with results. I will 100% be going back for other procedures in the future and cannot recommend her enough. Her work is beautiful and natural.

I decided to take the leap and get lip injections for the first time and found myself to be overwhelmed with the plethora of providers in the Philadelphia area who perform injections. After much research and perusing Dr. Ho’s website (which is great and full of helpful info!), I knew I had to see her for my procedure. I am beyond satisfied with not only my results, but my whole experience. Dr. Ho is so thorough, truly listens to your concerns, answers your every question, and explains everything in detail, making sure you know what to expect from start to finish. I never felt rushed or coerced (which I have with other surrounding providers, sadly). I truly believe she has your best interest at heart. I was so happy with my lip experience that I came back two weeks later for masseter muscle Botox. I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Ho and would not let anyone else touch my face. My lips are actually perfect and better than I even imagined! If you want exceptional results from a board-certified plastic surgeon, go see Dr. Ho. I’m so glad I did!

I went to Dr. Ho primarily for botox to the masseters for facial contouring but also received lip filler and chin filler. I was so pleased to find an Asian facial plastic surgeon close by me that really understood what I hoped to achieve. She listens to what your perceived flaws are and makes recommendations but doesn’t push procedures. Her injection technique is very experienced and downtime is minimal. No bruising! She counsels her patients well about the rationale for different filler types, anticipated benefits, and side effects. I’m very pleased with my results! I look like a better and more natural version of myself and no one would be able to guess that I’ve anything done without specifically being told –all of which is reflective of Dr. Ho’s philosophy. I highly recommend her, particularly for the more niche procedure of botox injection to the masseter for jawline contouring (and TMJ pain!)

Dr. Ho and Hanna were amazing!! The procedure was painless and Hanna even would warn me before the more “pinchy” areas (but I didn’t feel much at all). I received both Botox and filler and have a natural result, I love it so much! They also walked through everything they were doing beforehand to explain the process, which was comforting and eased any nerves. Plus, the office is beautiful and super clean. I would highly recommend!
