Skin Rejuvenation

Dermal Filler

Restoring youthful looking skin

Increase and Repair Collagen

Facial fillers “fill” skin that has lost tissue volume. fillers are made of natural ingredients such as calcium and hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is what human skin is made of in addition to collagen.

Dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 7 years depending on the type of filler, where it is placed and individual considerations such as extreme exercise.

Fillers effectively treat:

  • Lips

  • Jawline

  • Facial wrinkles

  • Vertical lip lines

  • Nasal labial folds (Smile lines)

  • Marionette lines (Wrinkles that occur between the corner of the mouth and the chin)

  • Cheeks

  • Tear-troughs (hollows under lower eyelids which cause dark circles)

  • hands

 FAQs

  • Numbing cream will be applied before the procedure, so that you won’t feel pain but you may feel a pinching sensation.

  • With proper technique and correct amount of dosage, it will not give you paralyzed look but more natural and youthful face.

  • Some facial fillers can last for 6 to 12 months, while others can last 2 to 7 years.

    it depends on the type of filler, where it is being placed, and individual consideration such as extreme exercise.

  • The frequency of facial filler treatments depends on the individual and the type of filler.

    your body naturally breaks down hyaluronic acid fillers, so you will need to get touch-ups to maintain the look.

  • Follow up visit and post-op care are very important to maintain the youthful look.

    Your provider will tailor your personal plan.

  • Overfilling the face will lead to an unnatural look and damage your skin elasticity.
    Too much filler not only make a young person look bizarre, it can also make you look older.

    Any remaining dosage will be saved in the “bank” for your next touch-up treatment.

  • After receiving filler injections, some patients have minor, temporary side effects where they were injected. You may have:
    Redness
    Swelling
    Tenderness
    Bruising (occasionally)

  • All four Anti-aging treatments can be combined to achieve the best result:

    1. Anti-aging injection (Botox®)

    2. Skin Rejuvenation (Filler)

    3. Skin Tightening (SkinTyte®)

    4. Facelift (MINT®)

    Botox® relaxes wrinkles but it does NOT fill the collagen and fat that we lose as we age. Thus, facial fillers are used under the eyes and in the lower half of the face.

    Skin Tightening uses thermal energy to heat subdermal tissues, stimulating collagen development.

    Facelift uses PDO Thread to lift up the saggy skin and introduce new collagen regeneration.

The Science

Facial fillers are great for saggy skin and hollowness, but what are they?

  • There are a variety of FDA approved fillers that are in use. In general, fillers are categorized by the substance they are made from.

    A note for your safety:

    Always makes sure that you are receiving FDA approved, brand name fillers, which are only available through a licensed physician.

    Hyaluronic Acid (HA)

    Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that is already found in your skin. It helps keep skin plump and hydrated. HA fillers are typically soft and gel-like. The results are temporary, lasting 6 to 12 months or longer before the body gradually and naturally absorbs the particles. Most HA fillers are infused with lidocaine to help minimize discomfort during and after treatment. FDA approved HA fillers include:

    Juvéderm products: Juvéderm XC, VOLUMA, VOLBELLA, VOLLURE

    Restylane products: Restylane, Restylane Silk, Restylane Lyft, Restylane Refyne, Restylane Defyne, Restylane Kysse, Restylane Contour

    Belotero Balance

    Revanesse Versa

    The RHA collection: RHA 2, RHA 3, and RHA 4

    Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA)

    Calcium hydroxylapatite is also a naturally occurring substance, found primarily in our bones. When used in a filler, the calcium particles are nearly microscopic and suspended in a smooth gel. The consistency of a CaHA filler is typically thicker than that of a hyaluronic acid filler and typically lasts longer as well, about 12 months for most patients. Calcium hydroxylapatite is also reported to help stimulate natural collagen production, and it is typically used for deeper lines and wrinkles. FDA approved CaHA fillers include Radiesse®.

    Poly-L-lactic Acid

    Poly-L-lactic acid is a biocompatible (meaning it is safe to use in the body), biodegradable synthetic substance. It has been used for many years in medical devices, such as dissolvable stitches. Poly-L-lactic acid products are technically classified as “collagen stimulators,” as their main mechanism to smooth fine lines is by helping your skin rebuild natural collagen—the filler gel itself dissipates a few days after treatment. Poly-L-lactic acid is typically used to treat deeper facial wrinkles, and results can last more than 2 years. FDA approved Poly-L-lactic acid fillers include Sculptra® Aesthetic.

    Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)

    Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is a synthetic, biocompatible substance that has been used in medicine for much of the last century. In dermal fillers, PMMA takes the form of a “microsphere” or tiny ball, that remains beneath the skin indefinitely to provide continued support. PMMA fillers will also contain collagen, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that provides structure and firmness. FDA approved PMMA fillers include Bellafill® (formerly known as Artefill).

    Autologous fat injections (facial fat grafting)

    Autologous fat injections are the only injectable filler treatment that requires surgery, but results can last for many years. Your own fat is harvested from another area (autologous means “from the same person”), typically using liposuction. The fat is then purified and injected into the face to help restore volume to the cheeks, temples, lower eyelids, or other areas. Fat injections require specialized training to perform safely and achieve great results, and should only be performed by an experienced, board-certified cosmetic surgeon.
