Anti Aging Injections?
Hey guys,
Please dont judge me for being curious. I am very young and dont need these injections but I have a huge passion for anti aging dermatology. I was wondering if such a thing existed. I am aware of injectable fillers like Restylane and Collagen. I am also aware of other injections like Botox and Juvederm. But I was wondering if there is vitamins or something like retinols you could inject in the skin to promote ageless, healthy, young skin. For example is their like an injectable moisturizer to penetrate more layers of the skin or is their injectable anti aging ingredients that wouldnt paralyze the muscle or plump the skin but just aid healthy skin. Thanks 
Hi Charley,
Curiosity is what makes you smarter. People you judge you are the ones that do not want you to know more. Kudos for you to your curiosity.
In the cosmetic industry, the term "anti-aging" is misleading. There are literally hundreds of products with such claim and NONE of them accomplish just that. This also applies for pricey procedures you get at the dermatology’s or plastic surgeon’s practice. Why? If a serum, or lotion, or cream (or anything other word) that claims "anti-aging", then anyone who uses it will not age anymore. But that is absolutely not true, you are aging, nonetheless. You can do a great deal to with with extrinsic aging, but not so much with intrinsic aging. Bottom line: without the daily use of broad-spectrum suns protection, any anti-aging product you will be in vain.
Vitamins are not injectable or none that I know of. Vitamins in a well-formulated and stable packaging be effective in absorbing into your skin. There are a lot of failures in the cosmetic industry because their "special potions" and whatnot are not in stable packaging. For example, L-ascorbic acid and Retinol are both unstable under light and air, that is why these ingredients must be packaged in containers that minimize or completely block air and light. Products in airless pump are good example.
You cannot inject moisturizer into skin. The ingredients of moisturizer works best on the top layer to keep you moist and soft.
The only "anti-aging" injectable that can paralyze the muscle is Botox and Dysport. Dysport is a newcomer. Botox has the longest profile of safety and efficacy. The effect of Botox or Dysport do not last forever even if you use it for years. Not so anti-aging after all right? Everything in reality you need to understand needs maintenance one way or another.

No . All of Los Angeles would be using it . Every other thing i know of is topical . If you hadnt listed all those, those would be the ones I would have told you . Other than those , not yet .
Yes, there exists some anti-aging injections. The National Enquirer claims Madonna has been getting regular anti-aging injection in LA, which is a new alternative to traditional botox.
