Dermal Fillers
Over time, the aging process leads to the loss of bone, collagen and elastin causing wrinkles, skin laxity, and poor skin tone and texture. Dermal filler can be used to replace this volume, create facial contours, or smooth fine lines. Essentially filler “fills.” Filler can last months to years depending on the product, your general health and personal factors.
Filler is can be injected into many places in the body, including lips, cheeks, jawline, jowls, chin, temples, fine lines, hands, and even ear lobes!
Multiple treatments or syringes over several visits may be required to achieve your desired aesthetic. Attaining your aesthetic goal can be performed in a series over months to years. Ideally, skin laxity, tone and texture should be addressed before adding dermal filler. This can be accomplished with microneedling, chemical peels, laser or other treatments alone or in combination.
Hyperdilute Radiesse is a biostimulatory treatment using diluted Radiesse, a calcium based dermal filler, to replace volume and stimulate the body’s ability to make collagen and elastin. Gradually, this skin rejuvenation treatment leads to more youthful skin appearance.
Platelet rich plasma or fibrin, while not a hyaluronic acid or calcium based filler so to speak, is a substance full of growth factors. These substances are derived from drawing your blood and using a centrifuge to separate the components. This can be injected to increase the production of collagen and elastin to help bring about refreshed skin.
