Summer Glow-Up: How Fillers & Neurotoxins Bring the Heat

Summer is here, and you're ready to shine—but fine lines, sagging, or volume loss can temper your glow. Enter cosmetic injectables. At Sculpt Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery in McLean and Fairfax, our expert injectors use smooth-operating dermal fillers and expression-easing neurotoxins for refreshed, natural results that let your skin steal the show.

Neurotoxins: BOTOX®, Dysport & the Basics

Leaning into your expressiveness? We’ve got tools to help dial it down. BOTOX® and Dysport® are trusted neurotoxins that relax overactive facial muscles to soften dynamic lines—like crow’s feet, forehead creases, and the “11” lines between the brows.

  • BOTOX® is precise and ideal for smaller, controlled areas.
  • Dysport® diffuses more quickly, making it ideal for treating larger areas or for faster results.

Results typically appear within a few days and last around 3 to 4 months. Results may vary from person to person. Regular maintenance treatments help keep your look smooth and youthful.

Dermal Fillers: Your Summer Volume MVPs

Dermal fillers are all about restoring lost volume and enhancing your facial structure, think plump cheeks, fuller lips, and a more defined jawline. At Sculpt Aesthetics, we offer top fillers like JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, and the RHA® Collection, each matched to your aesthetic goals and facial anatomy.

Benefits of dermal fillers include:

  • Smoothing smile lines and marionette lines
  • Adding youthful volume to cheeks and lips
  • Improving skin texture and hydration
  • Stimulating collagen for long-term firmness and structure

Summer Scenarios: Which Injectable Is Right for You?

Not sure where to start? Here are a few common concerns and the ideal injectable solution to match:

  • Forehead lines or crow’s feet: A neurotoxin like BOTOX® or Dysport® can relax facial muscles and smooth the skin’s surface.
  • Flat or hollow cheeks: Dermal fillers can restore volume and lift for a more sculpted look.
  • Thin lips or fine lines around the mouth: Lip fillers such as JUVÉDERM® or Restylane® create soft, natural-looking plumpness.
  • Preventive care in your 20s or 30s: Baby BOTOX® uses subtle doses to help prevent wrinkles before they fully develop.
