Botox & Dermal Fillers

Westlake Dermatology's West University Houston clinic provides the full range of FDA-approved neuromodulators and hyaluronic acid fillers administered by board-certified dermatologists. Botox, Dysport, Daxxify, and Xeomin address dynamic forehead lines, glabellar creases, crow's feet, brow depression, masseters, and neck bands. The Juvederm and Restylane collections cover lip augmentation, mid-face and cheek volumising, nasolabial fold softening, tear trough correction, and chin and jaw contouring. Biostimulatory fillers including Sculptra and Radiesse are also available for collagen-stimulating volume restoration.

Injectable treatments at Westlake Dermatology West University Houston span the full spectrum of neurotoxin and filler products approved by the FDA, administered in a physician-led environment with board-certified dermatologists overseeing all aesthetic injection services. Neuromodulator therapy uses botulinum toxin type A to temporarily block acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction, relaxing the targeted facial muscles and reducing the appearance of dynamic expression lines. The clinic carries Botox Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA), the category's most established product with the longest safety record; Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA), which has a somewhat broader diffusion profile and is particularly useful for larger-surface treatment zones such as the forehead; Daxxify (daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm), the newest toxin with published clinical data supporting a longer duration of effect — approximately six months — compared to the standard three to four months of conventional toxins; and Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA), a purified formulation without accessory proteins. Standard treatment areas include the frontalis for horizontal forehead lines, the corrugator supercilii and procerus for the vertical '11' glabellar lines, the lateral orbicularis oculi for crow's feet, the depressor supercilii and orbicularis for a chemical brow lift, the masseters for non-surgical jawline slimming (bruxism treatment), the mentalis for chin dimpling, and the platysmal bands for neck rejuvenation. Dermal fillers at the clinic encompass the complete Juvederm family (Voluma, Vollure, Volbella, Kysse, Ultra Plus) and Galderma's Restylane range (Lyft, Defyne, Refyne, Silk), with product selection guided by the target tissue depth, anatomical zone, and desired outcome. Volumising fillers restore structural support to the malar eminences and mid-face; softer formulations provide natural lip enhancement and perioral line correction; under-eye tear trough injections address hollowness and infraorbital shadowing. Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid) and Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite) offer collagen-stimulating biostimulatory effects lasting eighteen to twenty-four months, providing gradual, diffuse volume restoration rather than immediate focal augmentation. All injectable appointments begin with a detailed facial analysis and treatment plan tailored to each patient's anatomy and goals.
