At Leif Rogers, MD, injectable treatments are approached with the same clinical rigor found throughout the rest of our practice. Every plan is developed under physician oversight, so the product, dose, and placement you receive are chosen deliberately.

Why Choose Leif Rogers, MD?
Leif Rogers, MD, FACS, is a board-certified plastic surgeon, and that surgical foundation shapes our clinical team's approach to every injection. Treatments are planned with a detailed understanding of facial and body anatomy and delivered by trained injectors under physician supervision. We favor products with strong clinical backing over whatever happens to be trending, and we're candid when a treatment isn't the right fit for your goals.
Injectable Services We Offer

Asclera
Asclera is an injectable sclerosant used to treat small to medium-sized spider veins and reticular veins, most often in the legs. The solution irritates the vein's lining, causing it to collapse and fade from view over the following weeks as your body reabsorbs it.

Bellafill
Bellafill is a long-lasting dermal filler built on a collagen base suspended with tiny PMMA microspheres, which remain in place to provide ongoing structural support. It's frequently used for moderate to severe smile lines and for acne scarring, offering results that extend well beyond typical hyaluronic acid fillers.

Belotero
Belotero is a hyaluronic acid filler formulated to integrate smoothly into thinner, more delicate skin. Its cohesive gel is well suited for fine lines, particularly around the mouth and under the eyes, where a lighter, more flexible filler helps avoid a stiff or overfilled appearance.

BOTOX
Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines, most commonly across the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. Results typically appear within days and soften the repeated muscle movement that deepens these lines over time.

Dysport
Dysport works similarly to Botox, temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. Some patients notice a slightly faster onset with Dysport, and its formulation may spread a bit more broadly, which can suit larger treatment areas like the forehead.

Juvederm Ultra Plus XC
Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is a firmer hyaluronic acid filler designed for deeper folds and more pronounced volume loss, including nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Its density provides added structural lift in areas that need more support than a softer filler can offer.

Juvederm Ultra XC
Juvederm Ultra XC is a versatile hyaluronic acid filler used to add fullness to the lips and smooth moderate lines around the mouth. Its balanced consistency allows for natural movement and expression while still delivering noticeable, immediate volume.

Juvederm Volbella XC
Juvederm Volbella XC is formulated specifically for subtle lip enhancement and the fine vertical lines that can form above the upper lip. Its softer gel produces gentle, natural-looking volume, making it a common choice for patients seeking a first, understated result.

Juvederm Vollure XC
Juvederm Vollure XC is designed to smooth moderate to severe nasolabial folds and marionette lines while maintaining flexibility for natural facial movement. It's built to last longer than many other Juvederm formulations, reducing the frequency of touch-up appointments.

Juvederm Voluma
Juvederm Voluma is engineered to restore volume in the cheeks, addressing the flattening and sagging that often accompany age-related fat loss. Its thicker consistency provides structural lift deep beneath the skin, helping re-establish contour without altering the overlying skin texture.

Kybella
Kybella is an injectable treatment containing a naturally occurring molecule that breaks down fat cells beneath the chin. Once destroyed, those cells can no longer store fat, making Kybella a non-surgical option for patients bothered by submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin.

Radiesse
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite filler that adds volume immediately while also stimulating the body's own collagen production over time. It's often used on the hands and in deeper facial folds, where its thicker consistency provides lasting structural support.

Renuva Adipose Matrix
Renuva is an injectable matrix derived from processed donor fat tissue, designed to serve as a scaffold that encourages the body to generate its own new fat cells. It's used to restore volume in areas affected by aging or prior fat loss, including the face and hands.

Restylane
Restylane is a hyaluronic acid filler family offering options tailored to different areas and depths, from fine lines to deeper folds and lip enhancement. Its range of formulations allows our team to match a specific product to the texture and support each treatment area requires.
Injectables Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which injectable is right for me?
The right product depends on the area, the depth of the concern, and how long you'd like results to last. Our team will assess your anatomy during a private consultation at either our Beverly Hills or Pasadena location before recommending a specific treatment.
Do injectables hurt?
Most patients describe a brief pinch or pressure rather than significant pain. Many products, including several Juvederm formulations, already contain a numbing agent, and we can apply topical numbing beforehand for added comfort.
How long do the results last?
This varies widely by product and treatment area. Neuromodulators like Botox and Dysport typically last three to four months, while hyaluronic acid fillers can last six months to over a year, and biostimulatory or fat-based treatments may offer longer-term results.
Is there downtime after injectable treatments?
Most patients return to normal activities the same day, though mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site is common for a few days afterward. We'll walk you through what to expect based on your specific treatment.
Do you offer injectables at both the Beverly Hills and Pasadena locations?
Yes. Most of our injectable treatments are available at both locations. Our team will confirm product availability and help you schedule your visit at whichever office works best for you.
