Cosmetic Fillers
We use cosmetic fillers to rejuvenate facial skin by smoothing out everything from small wrinkles caused by smiling, wrinkles between the eyebrows, as well as correcting deep furrows and sagging cheekbones. Fillers are also used to correct hollowness around the eyes, and add fullness to thin lips. If your face is disproportionate, that can be improved, too.
Fillers can be used to restore fullness to the face that has lost fullness with age, creating more prominent cheekbones or a more angled jawline.
Fillers are also used to enhance the appearance of upper and lower lips. We have also used fillers to treat acne, chicken pox, and other deep scars.
Before and After...
What do the Fillers Contain?
We use the filler Restylane® (see description below). Restylane® is made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally creates volume when injected into the skin. It involves no foreign substances. Restylane® lasts approximately four to six months.
* Restylane is a new form of injectable filler that provides advantages over fat and collagen injections. Restylane is a non-animal, biodegradable gel based on hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a substance found in most of our bodies as it provides volume and fullness to the skin. Restylane has been proven to last longer than fat and collagen injections. It maintains its shape using the body's own moisture. What results is a longer-lasting, youthful facial appearance.
