Dermal Fillers

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers (Injectables) are natural or synthetic materials that are injected into the skin to create a firmer, more youthful appearance. As we age, our skin gradually loses collagen and fat, producing lines, wrinkles, and sagginess in the epidermis. Dermal fillers help plump the skin, making it look fuller and healthier.

Juvederm

Juvederm is a hyaluronic based filler that is twice as concentrated as Restylane. It is easy to inject resulting in a smoother distribution and even skin surface.

Sculptra

Sculptra is the first facial injectable that gives you subtle results over time. It helps correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles, and folds,** that appear with aging by replacing lost collagen. Giving you a more natural-looking appearance, without giving you away. A full treatment of Sculptra Aesthetic, an average of three injection sessions over a few months, can last up to two years.*

* Individual results and treatment sessions may vary.
** Safety and effectiveness of Sculptra Aesthetic have not been evaluated in areas other than nasolabial wrinkles and folds in clinical trials.

Fat Transfer

This type of filler comes directly from your own body, so there is no chance of rejection. Fat Transfer (also known as fat grafting, fat transplantation, or fat injection) involves suctioning small amounts of fat, usually from the abdomen or flanks, processing it in a centrifuge to separate the fat from other substances, and then injecting the fat into the face for the desired effect. This is done in a minor surgical procedure, in the office operating room with local anesthesia. Longevity varies from several months to forever, and depends greatly on the surgeon’s skill, the location of the injections, the amount of movement in that area, and your own body’s response.
