Ultrasound-guided injections are an advanced and highly precise technique in which injections are placed using real-time ultrasound. This allows us to see exactly where blood vessels, nerves, fillers and other structures are located. At Xavier Clinics we use ultrasound-guided injections to safety, precision and predictability to significantly increase the number of cosmetic treatments.
This technique is mainly used for complex or risky areas, corrections and medical indications.

With ultrasound-guided injections, the doctor uses an ultrasound device to to look under the skin during treatment. This makes it possible to:
-
To locate blood vessels and nerves
-
To make existing fillers visible
