JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is the first and only hyaluronic acid (HA) filler FDA-approved to instantly add volume to the cheek area. It gives you a subtle lift, restoring the contour of your cheeks and creating a more youthful profile.
Results from JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC are instantaneous and generally last anywhere from 18 months to 2 years.
How It Works
One of our highly experienced injectors will place JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC under the skin using a fine needle to augment, or fill, the soft tissue of the dermis, the dense inner layer of skin beneath the epidermis. This adds volume and diminishes wrinkles and folds. The injection process takes only about 15 minutes.
Who It’s Right For
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC injectable gel is great for:
- Nonsurgical cheek augmentation
- Nonsurgical chin augmentation
- Filling in deep lines and folds
Restylane®
Restylane is an injectable HA gel. By replenishing your skin’s supply of hyaluronic acid, it revitalizes and plumps up its surface, instantly diminishing the appearance of lines and giving a softer look.
How It Works
Once injected into the dermis, Restylane gel enhances your skin’s own stores of hyaluronic acid, directly adding volume to either soften the signs of aging or enhance your features. The procedure is quick, usually taking less than 30 minutes. The benefits can be seen immediately.
Who It’s Right For
Restylane treatments:
- Smooth out facial lines such as marionette lines and nasolabial folds
- Create fuller lips
- Shape facial contours, such as the cheeks and chin
Restylane® Lyft
Restylane Lyft is a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that is specifically formulated to act like your body’s own hyaluronic acid, adding volume and fullness to the skin.
How It Works
Restylane Lyft differs from Restylane primarily in the size of the particles and the depth of the required injection. Restylane Lyft, used for deeper wrinkles, has larger particles that are injected deeper into the skin than Restylane.
Who It’s Right For
Restylane Lift is FDA-approved for the correction of moderate to severe facial folds and wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds.
Sculptra® Aesthetic
Sculptra Aesthetic is an FDA-approved injectable that helps gradually replace lost collagen, an underlying cause of facial aging, for results that can last more than 2 years.* Sculptra Aesthetic works subtly and gradually over time to give you a more youthful-looking appearance.
How It Works
Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, Sculptra Aesthetic stimulates your skin’s own natural collagen production to help restore its inner structure and increase facial volume that has been lost to aging.
Who It’s Right For
Sculptra Aesthetic is intended for use in people with healthy immune systems as a one-time treatment regimen of up to 4 injection sessions that are scheduled about 3 weeks apart.
*Individual results and treatment sessions may vary.
Before, During, and After Dermal Fillers
What To Expect Before Dermal Fillers
Before your dermal filler treatment, we take the time to understand your unique concerns and answer any questions you may have. Our compassionate and skilled practitioners are dedicated to not only meeting your expectations but helping you feel confident in enhancing your natural beauty.
Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals. Using years of experience and a variety of advanced dermal filler options, we’ll provide expert recommendations to deliver stunning, natural-looking results that align with your vision.
What To Expect During Dermal Fillers
We’ll begin by cleansing the treatment area with specialized solutions. To maximize comfort, we’ll gently numb the area. Using a fine needle, our skilled practitioners will precisely inject the dermal fillers, ensuring accurate placement to achieve your desired results.
What To Expect After Dermal Fillers
You’ll likely experience minimal swelling or redness, which subsides within a few days. There’s little to no downtime, so you can enjoy your refreshed, youthful appearance the same day.
Frequently Asked Questions of Dermal Fillers
What is recovery like after dermal fillers?
The recovery process is minimal, which is part of what makes dermal fillers so popular. After your appointment, you may have some bruising or swelling that lasts for about a week. You can cover this up with some gentle makeup application so you don’t miss out on your usual routine. Some people even have dermal fillers injected during their lunch break.
What’s the difference between fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic?
Dermal fillers smooth away wrinkles by replacing lost volume beneath the skin. They work well for folds, creases, or areas that need a little volume boost. BOTOX, Dysport®, and DAXXIFY® relax specific muscles to address wrinkles caused by repeated contractions. Crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines are popular treatment areas. Many people choose to combine both BOTOX and dermal fillers to achieve their best results.
Can I reverse my fillers?
Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved at any time with an injection of a product called Hylenex. This enzyme dissolves the fillers within 24 to 48 hours.
Can dermal fillers improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles?
Yes! Dermal fillers are designed to restore lost volume, smooth fine lines, and wrinkles, and enhance specific areas of the face for a natural, youthful appearance.
How do I choose the right dermal filler for my needs?
Our expert practitioners are here to guide you through a personalized consultation, helping you choose the ideal dermal filler to achieve your goals—whether it’s reducing wrinkles, enhancing your lips, or lifting your cheeks. With our expertise and your vision, we’re committed to creating tailored treatment plans that perfectly align with your desired outcomes.
Are there any side effects or risks with dermal fillers?
While dermal fillers are a safe and noninvasive option for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, some mild side effects can occur after treatment. These may include slight redness or mild bruising around the injection area, which typically resolve quickly.
How soon will I see results from dermal fillers?
Most patients notice results immediately after treatment. Full results become more apparent as swelling reduces, delivering quick and visible improvements.
Can dermal fillers be reversed if needed?
Yes! Hyaluronic acid fillers like JUVÉDERM and Restylane® can be dissolved with a simple injection of Hylenex if necessary, although non-HA fillers like Sculptra®, made from poly-L-lactic acid are not reversible. Sculptra® works as a bio-stimulatory filler, encouraging your body to naturally produce collagen. This collagen is gradually absorbed by the body over a period of 18 to 24 months.
