Cosmetic Injectables
Natural Botox in Austin: Movement-Friendly Injectables
May 29, 2026Read More →
Quick Answer
At Banyan & Bamboo, every injectable treatment is administered by Brittany Cantu, AME — 21+ years of medical aesthetics experience, anatomy-based technique, and a strict philosophy of natural-looking results. Botox, Dysport, Daxxify, fillers, Sculptra, and full facial balancing, all on South Lamar.
Who Is This Treatment For?
Concern: Dynamic wrinkles (forehead, crow's feet, frown lines), volume loss in the cheeks or lips, jawline definition, neck banding, or a combination of concerns that require a comprehensive injectable plan.
Experience Level: Whether you are considering injectables for the first time or returning for a maintenance appointment, Brittany Cantu's approach is anatomy-first — results that look like you, not like work.
Approach: A single treatment addresses one concern. A facial balancing plan addresses the whole face in proportion — this is where the most natural, lasting results come from.
Medical Oversight: All injectable services are performed under the oversight of Dr. David L. Sneed, MD — board-certified physician and Medical Director at Banyan & Bamboo.

Injectable Treatments
Precision relaxation. Natural movement.
Botox and Dysport are neuromodulators that temporarily relax the muscles responsible for expression lines — forehead, frown lines, crow's feet, brow lift, lip flip, and more. Brittany Cantu's approach is anatomically precise and movement-preserving. You'll look refreshed, not frozen.
From $13/unit
Explore Botox + DysportCollagen-forward. Long-lasting volume.
Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) biostimulator that rebuilds your own collagen over time. Not a filler, but a foundation. Ideal for clients in their mid-30s and beyond experiencing gradual volume loss, hollowing, or skin laxity who want results that look natural and last. Results develop gradually over 3 to 6 months and last up to 2 years. For clients managing weight changes related to GLP-1 medications, Sculptra is often the most effective way to restore facial structure without overcorrecting. Brittany Cantu's collagen-forward approach means Sculptra is often the first recommendation for clients who want long-term structural improvement rather than immediate volume. Every Sculptra protocol at Banyan & Bamboo is paired with Ampra HA Collagen Building Serum, the same pharmaceutical-grade HA used in fillers, applied topically to compound results between visits.
From $900/vial
Explore SculptraStructural support. Instant results.
Hyaluronic acid fillers restore volume, define structure, and smooth deep folds. Brittany Cantu uses fillers for cheeks, lips, jawline, chin, and nasolabial folds — always with a conservative, natural-first philosophy. Results are immediate and last 9–18 months depending on the area and product. To extend and protect your investment, Brittany Cantu recommends Ampra™ HA Collagen Building Serum — formulated with the same pharmaceutical-grade HA as your filler, working topically to maintain volume and hydration between appointments.
From $850/syringe
Explore Dermal FillersFull-face harmony. Proportional beauty.
Facial balancing is a comprehensive approach to facial aesthetics — assessing the face as a whole and using a combination of neuromodulators and fillers to restore proportion, symmetry, and structural support. This is Brittany Cantu's specialty: treating the face as a system, not a series of isolated concerns.
Custom consultation
Explore Facial BalancingInjectable + mesotherapy. Regenerates the under-eye at a cellular level.
Light Eyes Ultra uses PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide), a regenerative compound derived from salmon DNA, to restore the delicate tissue around the orbital bone. Applied via micro-injections and mesotherapy, it reduces puffiness, upper and lower eyelid bags, dark circles, crepiness, fine lines, and hollowing that topical products cannot reach. Unlike hyaluronic acid filler for the under-eye, Light Eyes Ultra does not add volume. It regenerates the tissue itself, making it the appropriate treatment for clients whose primary concern is darkness, puffiness, crepiness, or early hollowing rather than significant volume loss. This is one of the most advanced and underutilized treatments in aesthetic medicine, and one of the most transformative. Consultation required.

"Such a great experience! My injector Brittany Cantu was incredible — so knowledgeable, gentle, and really listened to what I wanted. I felt completely comfortable the whole time, and the results are exactly what I was hoping for — natural and refreshed. I'll definitely be back!"

"The Med Spa itself is lovely and modern, and the front desk person was very friendly upon my arrival and got me checked in promptly. I was seen on time, and Brittany Cantu could not have been more awesome. She definitely has the demeanor and professionalism of a well-seasoned injector, and she took time to listen to my exact concerns about specific areas of my face. Before administering my Dysport, she recommended the most appropriate treatments for addressing the hollowing and circles under my eyes, and I will be following up on those suggestions in the near future. Her expert placement of Dysport for treating my forehead, glabella, and brows was complete in minutes, and I can state two weeks post-treatment that I am extremely pleased with the results."

"Had a wonderful experience with Britt. With so many years of experience with dysport/botox injections, she easily answered any questions I'd had from past injections & calmed any fears I may have had about undesired outcome. She was quick, yet precise and very friendly and relatable. I encourage any and all to request her!"

"Almost 2 years postpartum mama here in desperate need of some facial improvements. I read so many great reviews about Brittany and I indeed had a wonderful experience with her myself. She made me so comfortable to know exactly what I needed and she did it in a manner that was incredibly efficient. I'll be going back to her absolutely."
