Dermal Fillers
Restylane®
Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds.
Cosmoplast/Cosmoderm®
Cosmoderm and Cosmoplast are collagen dermal (skin) fillers made from human collagen and injected just below the skin's surface to smooth wrinkles, fill in deep furrows and folds and restore the lip border. CosmoDerm can fill in the worry lines on your forehead and the frown lines between your eyebrows. CosmoPlast will add definition to your lip border and fill in those annoying vertical lip lines.
Juvéderm®
Juvéderm is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid—a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. It is injected under the skin to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your “smile lines” or “parentheses” (nasolabial folds—the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).
Radiesse®
Radiesse dermal filler is made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, and is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive procedure. RADIESSE dermal filler is the ideal choice for total facial contouring. It can restore a healthy, youthful appearance, enhance your existing features, help you defy age and gravity, and increase your confidence – all without invasive surgery or scarring.
ArteFill®
ArteFill is the first non-resorbable injectable filler for the correction of wrinkles known as smile lines. It contains 20% tiny round and smooth particles (PMMA microspheres) and 80% purified bovine collagen gel with 0.3% lidocaine, an anesthetic.
All temporary fillers are eventually absorbed by the body. That’s why they require frequent repeat injections. ArteFill is different. The body does not absorb the unique microspheres in ArteFill. These microspheres provide the permanent support your skin needs for long-lasting wrinkle correction. Now, with ArteFill, you can get the lasting wrinkle correction you want in just one or two treatments. Where the results of temporary fillers end, the long-lasting benefits of ArteFill continue.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is another filler for rejuvenating facial skin. Also known as the liquid facelift, it works by filling in lines and wrinkles and by stimulating the body to produce new collagen and underlying tissue. Results will create a fuller, more youthful appearance.
Sculptra is FDA-approved. It is an injectable form of poly-L-lactic acid, a biodegradable, biocompatible synthetic polymer from the alpha-hydroxy-acid family.
Sculptra restores fullness of the face, creating a more natural appearance and treats the deepest wrinkles, acne scarring, HIV lipoatrophy. Skin testing is not required prior to use. As with most injections, side effect, though minimal, could possibly occur. The most common are redness, swelling and bruising around the treated area.
