Botox & Dermal Fillers

Sound Plastic Surgery Seattle offers non-surgical injectable treatments including Botox and dermal fillers, administered by or under direct surgeon oversight at the University District practice. Neuromodulator injections address dynamic expression lines across the forehead, glabellar complex, and crow's feet. Dermal fillers restore volume to the cheeks, lips, and perioral area. Kybella injections for non-surgical reduction of submental fat are also available. Non-surgical treatments are available both as standalone appointments and as part of a surgical consultation visit.

Non-surgical injectable treatments at Sound Plastic Surgery Seattle are offered within a board-certified plastic surgery setting — providing patients the benefit of anatomical expertise and an understanding of how injectable results interact with the aging face and any planned or prior surgical work. Botox (botulinum toxin type A) neuromodulator injections address dynamic facial lines caused by repetitive muscle contraction. Primary treatment zones include the frontalis muscle for horizontal forehead lines, the glabellar corrugator and procerus muscles for frown lines between the brows (the eleven lines), and the lateral orbicularis oculi for crow's feet. Additional applications include the masseter muscles for jaw slimming and teeth-grinding relief, the brow depressors for a chemical brow lift effect, the platysmal bands of the neck for a Nefertiti lift, and the lip border for subtle lip eversion. Results typically last three to four months, with duration extending in some patients with regular treatment over time. Dermal fillers complement neuromodulators by restoring the volume loss and structural deflation that contributes to aged facial appearance. At the Seattle practice, hyaluronic acid fillers are used for cheek volumisation (Juvederm VOLUMA, Restylane Lyft), nasolabial fold and marionette line softening (Juvederm VOLURE, Defyne), and lip augmentation and definition (VOLBELLA, Restylane Kysse, Restylane Silk). The precise product selection is tailored to each zone — stiffer, more cohesive gels for structural support in the midface, softer and more flexible formulations for dynamic areas that move extensively with facial expression. Kybella (deoxycholic acid) provides non-surgical reduction of submental fat for patients seeking to address a double chin without liposuction; a series of two to four treatment sessions spaced at least four weeks apart produces progressive reduction of the fat pad through adipocyte cell lysis. All injectable treatments are administered in the context of a full facial assessment by the Seattle practice's clinical team, with surgeon oversight ensuring that the non-surgical treatment plan aligns with the patient's broader aesthetic goals — whether they are pursuing non-surgical maintenance or preparing for or recovering from a surgical procedure.
