The last few years have seen an explosion in the technology of injectable treatments.  These products are safe ways of filling wrinkles without surgery.  They improve hollows that occur with aging, as well as augment cheeks, raise eyebrows and fill in dark circles.  Discover which treatments are right for you by calling us for your personal consultation.

 Restylane is natural, safe filler lasting approximately 5-7 months.  It is typically used to fill wrinkles such as those from the nose to the corner of the mouth, surrounding the lips, and in the dark circles under the eye.

 Perlane is a longer lasting version of Restylane that is intended for volume filing along with correcting deeper lines and folds, and is expected to last 6-12 months.

 Juvaderm Ultra/Ultra Plus is the latest member of the hyaluronic acid family that provides a smooth and durable result. Recently approved in the United States, Juvederm has had extensive experience throughout Europe.

 Sculptra is a product composed of poly-l-lactic acid, and absorbable material that has been used for many years.  As the product degrades, a collagen response results in fullness in the treated area.  This takes weeks to months to see the full effect of the product.  Sculptra became FDA-approved for the treatment of hollowing or thinning of the face secondary to medical illness.

Artefill is a product that combines polymethyl methacylan and collagen.  As the collagen is absorbed it is replaced with a person’s own collagen and is thought to be permanent.  It usually takes 2-3 treatments for this benefit.

 Radiesse is a filler composed of calcium hydroxyappetite, a natural, long-lasting product that can augment the cheeks, fill in deep wrinkles and slightly upturn the corners of the mouth in aging patients.
