At Fortier Gynecology, injectable aesthetic treatments are approached with the same medical precision, care, and respect that define our gynecology practice. Injectables are not about changing how you look—they are about enhancing your natural features, restoring balance, and helping you look refreshed while still looking like yourself. All treatments are performed in a safe, professional, medical setting.
We proudly offer injectable services for both women and men and take a conservative, personalized approach to aesthetic care. Every treatment begins with a thoughtful consultation to understand your goals, facial anatomy, and expectations. Our philosophy is simple: subtle, natural results that align with your features and lifestyle.
Botox Treatments
Botox is one of the most trusted and widely used injectable treatments for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements. Common treatment areas include the forehead, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet around the eyes. Botox works by relaxing targeted muscles, allowing the skin to appear smoother and more refreshed.
At Fortier Gynecology, Botox treatments are carefully customized for each patient. Facial anatomy, muscle strength, and desired results are all considered to ensure balanced, natural outcomes. Our goal is to soften lines without creating a frozen or overdone appearance.
Botox can also be used preventatively, helping to slow the development of deeper wrinkles over time. Many patients choose Botox not only to improve existing lines, but also to maintain a youthful, rested appearance as they age. Treatments are quick, require little to no downtime, and are easily incorporated into a busy schedule.
Results from Botox typically begin to appear within several days, with full effects visible within two weeks. Results generally last three to four months, and regular maintenance treatments can help sustain smooth, consistent results.
Dermal Filler Treatments
Dermal fillers are used to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours, and smooth deeper lines and folds. As we age, natural collagen and volume decrease, which can lead to hollowing, sagging, and changes in facial shape. Fillers help replenish volume while maintaining a natural, youthful appearance.
Common treatment areas include the cheeks, lips, jawline, chin, and nasolabial folds. At Fortier Gynecology, filler treatments are performed with precision and restraint, focusing on facial balance rather than overcorrection. Every treatment plan is customized based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Fillers can also improve skin hydration and texture while enhancing definition. Whether the goal is subtle lip enhancement, cheek restoration, or facial contouring, we prioritize natural-looking results that complement your features rather than overpower them.
Results from dermal fillers are visible immediately, with continued improvement as swelling resolves. Depending on the type of filler used and the treatment area, results can last anywhere from several months to over a year. Follow-up care ensures optimal, long-lasting outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
Botox relaxes muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles such as forehead lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers restore volume and structure to areas affected by aging or volume loss, such as the cheeks, lips, and jawline. Many patients benefit from a combination of both treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
How long do injectable treatments last?
Botox typically lasts three to four months, while dermal fillers can last anywhere from six months to over a year depending on the product used and treatment area. Individual results vary, and maintenance treatments help sustain results over time.
Is there downtime after Botox or filler treatments?
Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment. Mild redness, swelling, or bruising may occur, particularly with fillers, but usually resolves within a few days. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to minimize side effects.
Are injectable treatments safe?
When administered by trained medical professionals in a clinical setting, injectable treatments are safe and effective. At Fortier Gynecology, all treatments are performed with careful attention to anatomy, dosing, and patient safety, and every patient receives a thorough consultation beforehand.
Will my results look natural?
Yes. Our approach emphasizes subtle enhancement and facial balance. The goal is for you to look refreshed and well-rested—not overdone. Treatments are tailored to your features and adjusted conservatively to maintain a natural appearance.
