What are injectables?

Injectables is a blanket term for medications that are administered with a needle. After the medication enters your bloodstream, it goes to work, minimizing wrinkles, boosting your metabolism, or providing nutrients for your body.

What are the different types of injectables?

Centeno Health offers several types of injectables, including:

Cosmetic injectables

Cosmetic injectables like Botox and Jeuveau treat dynamic wrinkles, caused by repetitive facial movements, like frowning and smiling. These neuromodulators block nerve signals from reaching specific muscles in your face, making your skin look smoother, tighter, and younger. 

Lipotropic injectables

Lipotropic injectables are dietary supplements that aid in weight loss. Centeno Health offers several types of lipotropic injections, including vitamin B12, inositol, and choline. These injections improve your liver function and may boost your metabolism to help you shed fat quicker than you can with diet and exercise alone.

Semaglutide injectables

Centeno Health offers medical weight loss with semaglutide (Ozempic®), an injectable that suppresses your appetite, regulates your blood sugar, and helps you lose weight quickly. Your provider tailors each dose to your personal needs, ensuring lasting and positive results.

Vitamin injections

Vitamin injections address nutritional deficiencies. They can also increase your energy levels and encourage optimal health. 

What type of injectables will benefit me?

To determine the type of injectables that will most benefit you, your Centeno Health provider reviews your medical records, completes a physical exam, and may order blood work. After gathering the necessary information, they develop a personalized treatment plan.

For example, if you have forehead wrinkles or frown lines, you might benefit from Botox or Jeuveau. If you’re trying to lose weight and keep it off, your provider might prescribe semaglutide and lipotropic injections.

Do injectables occur during an in-house visit?

Centeno Health offers injectables through house calls, so as long as you live in the Miami metropolitan area, you don’t have to leave home or even work to get cosmetic, weight loss, or health-boosting injections. Your provider coming to you is part of the concierge medicine program Centeno Health offers. 

Are injectables safe?

Injectables are safe and usually well-tolerated. After treatment, it’s normal to have mild swelling, bruising, or redness at each injection site, but these symptoms should improve within a day or two.
