Restylane

Restylane is a smart and easy way to add volume and smoothness to your skin. It is the world’s most widely used product based on hyaluronic acid for esthetic enhancement. It is long lasting, but not permanent. Restylane is safe, natural, long lasting, nonanimal, quick and easy. It restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

How long does it take?
The injection process takes only about 15 minutes and results area immediate. There is minimal recovery or downtime so you are able to get back to your daily life immediately after your treatment.

How long does it last?
Restylane is proven to deliver long-lasting results. Studies have shown that Restylane effects generally last for about six months. Restylane’s stabilization technology helps maintain the cosmetic effect until the injected material is nearly gone.

What makes Restylane different from other dermal fillers?
Unlike rooster-derived hyaluronic acid-based products, Restylane is free from animal proteins. This quality limits the risk of animal-based disease transmission or allergic reaction. Restylane contains trace amounts of gram-positive bacterial proteins and should not be used by patients with a history of allergies to such material.

Radiesse

What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is a safe, FDA-approved dermal filler that restores a natural, youthful look and lasts longer than the former leading filler. This convenient treatment fills and corrects smile lines, Nasolabial Folds and wrinkles around the nose and mouth. Radiesse is made of unique calcium-based microspheres suspended in a natural gel that is injected into the skin through a simple, safe and minimally invasive procedure.

How does Radiesse work?
Radiesse works with your body, below the skin’s surface. Tiny calcium-based microspheres form a “scaffold” to support and stimulate the growth of your own collagen. Over time, the calcium-based microspheres gradually break down and are safely and naturally absorbed by your body. Radiesse does more than just temporarily fill-in facial folds and wrinkles – it rebuilds your skin’s foundation and restores your youthful look, without the risks associated with a permanent implant.

How soon can I expect results? How long will they last?
The results are immediate. Radiesse typically lasts a year or more, longer than the former leading filler, saving you time and money. Since results may vary, be sure to discuss your expectations with your doctor.

Is Radiesse Safe?
Yes. Hundreds of thousands of patients have experienced Radiesse and more than 4,000 physicians worldwide have been trained to provide Radiesse treatments. Through years of clinical studies and independent research, Radiesse has proven to be safe and effective. With Radiesse, you get FDA-approved, safe, clinically tested reliability.

How is a Radiesse treatment performed?
Radiesse is injected into the skin through a simple, safe, convenient procedure. Radiesse treatments have no downtime, with most patients returning to normal activities soon after treatment.

How many treatments will I need?
Many patients will achieve their desired result after just one visit. Because Radiesse is a longer-term cosmetic enhancement, and to ensure your satisfaction, we may schedule a follow-up visit, where a touch-up treatment may be recommended.

Are there any side effects?
Normal, injection-related reactions, such as mild irritation, swelling, itching, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site may occur. These conditions typically resolve on their own.

Is Radiesse permanent?
No. Treatment results are long-lasting, but not permanent. The calcium-based microspheres gradually break down and are safely and naturally absorbed by your body so you will have none of the risks associated with a permanent implant

Juvederm

Juvederm is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid- a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. The gel is injected gently under the skin to instantly restore your skin’s volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your “smile lines” or nasolabial folds (the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).

How long does it last?
Juvederm can last up to a year, depending on the patient.

What makes Juvederm different from other dermal fillers?
Juvederm is a smooth-consistency HA gel. Other HA fillers have a more granular consistency.
