Juvederm Ultra Plus
Juvederm Ultra Plus is a thicker filler than Juvederm Ultra, ideal for erasing deeper folds and wrinkles like nasolabial folds and marionette lines. It offers more volume and is also used for rejuvenating volume loss in the hands, lasting up to a year.
Skinvive
Skinvive is a cosmetic treatment that typically involves the use of hyaluronic acid to improve skin texture, hydration, and overall appearance. It is often used to enhance skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment can provide a more youthful and radiant look by delivering moisture directly into the skin.
Kybella for Double Chins
The worrisome “double chin” – clinically called submental fullness – can appear for various reasons at any age, and some people are more prone to getting it. Surveys suggest that people find “submental fullness” as unpleasant as lines and wrinkles around and under their eyes.
KYBELLA works to mimic a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fatty (called deoxycholic acid). Once the fat cells are disabled, the fat doesn’t return. We recommend some planned downtime, because the treatment creates temporary swelling, with the amount gradually decreasing with subsequent treatments.
Glamour magazine reported that Khloe Kardashian is the new ambassador of Kybella’s ‘‘Live Chin Up’ campaign, which is designed to encourage women to not let things that bother them get in their way.”
RHA
The RHA® Collection of dermal fillers is specifically designed to provide natural-looking results while addressing dynamic wrinkles and folds. These advanced fillers are known for their longevity, with effects lasting up to 15 months in areas with dynamic movement and up to one year in areas like lipstick lines.
Dynamic Design:
- Facial Dynamics: The RHA® Collection caters to the dynamic nature of the face, which involves millions of movements daily, such as laughing and talking. These repetitive actions lead to the formation of dynamic wrinkles and folds.
- Movement Adaptation: Because these areas are highly mobile, treating them with fillers can be challenging. The RHA® Collection is crafted to ensure that the treated area maintains a natural appearance without becoming stiff or unnatural during facial movements.
Natural Formulation:
- Resembling Natural HA: The fillers are formulated to closely mimic the natural hyaluronic acid (HA) present in your skin. HA provides essential moisture, volume, and structural support, contributing to a smooth and refreshed appearance.
- Age-Related Decline: As we age, our skin’s natural HA production decreases, leading to the loss of moisture and volume. The RHA® Collection helps replenish this vital component to restore a youthful look.
Your provider will customize a treatment plan using the RHA® Collection to meet your specific goals, ensuring that the results enhance your natural beauty while accommodating the dynamic nature of your facial expressions.
Dysport
Dysport is an injectable treatment that is used to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) and other facial wrinkles. It contains botulinum toxin type A, which works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, leading to a temporary reduction in muscle activity. This helps to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines.
Here are some key points about Dysport:
-
Treatment Areas: While it is commonly used for frown lines, Dysport can also be used in other areas of the face, such as the forehead and around the eyes (crow’s feet).
-
Procedure: The treatment is relatively quick, often taking only 10 to 20 minutes. A healthcare provider will inject Dysport into the targeted muscles using a fine needle.
-
Results: Patients typically start to see results within a few days, with full effects visible within about two weeks. The results can last for three to six months, after which repeat treatments are usually needed to maintain the desired effect.
-
Side Effects: Common side effects may include swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection site. More serious side effects are rare but can occur.
Sculptra to Restore Facial Volume
Sculptra Aesthetic is an injectable that stimulates your body’s own natural collagen production and restores facial volume. Sculptra has been FDA approved in the U.S. and has been used worldwide since 1999. The aesthetic contains a synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, which is a biocompatible, biodegradable substance that is gradually and naturally absorbed by the body and commonly found in dissolvable stitches.
The ideal candidates for Sculptra are middle-aged women (50-60) who’ve lost volume in their face.
Catherine Zeta-Jones is an oft-promoted devotee of Sculptra. For the men, the alpha male of Hollywood – Brad Pitt – have been rumored to have had Sculptra to keep the naturally looking youthful appearance and facial volume.
Restylane Fillers
Dermal fillers are injection treatments used to diminish wrinkles, restore fullness, or make subtle changes.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps provide hydration, fullness, and elasticity. It diminishes as we age, causing skin to lose volume while increasing the chances for wrinkles and folds to appear.
Restylane dermal fillers use clear gel formulations of HA. As the original non-animal stabilized HA filler, Restylane was designed to be closest to the body’s own hyaluronic acid with minimal crosslinking, and was the first to be approved by the US FDA. The Restylane portfolio has now been used in over 65 million treatments worldwide.
Radiesse for Facial Rejuvenation
Radiesse stimulates new collagen growth beneath the surface of the skin for natural facial rejuvenation. It is made of non-allergenic substances that occur naturally in the human body. Radiesse uses a calcium-based formula that can help “volumize” your natural features, plumping and lifting cheeks, and even plumping sagging hands. In fact, Radiesse is the first-ever filler approved by the FDA to help rejuvenate hands.
Radiesse has many advantages, mostly in that it lasts longer than other dermal fillers. In addition to her well-touted personal beauty habits (like 12 glasses of water per day), Jennifer Anniston is a popular star who has benefitted from Radiesse treatments.
Bellafill to Treat Deep Lines and Scars
The first and only dermal filler FDA Approved to last 5 years. Want the best way to plump up areas of your face that may be lessened due to acne, aging or weight loss? Bellafill can fill in deep lines caused by loss of volume and gives an appearance of overall facial rejuvenation, and can remedy pitted scars or nasolabial folds to lift them to the level of the surrounding skin.
The FDA-approved Bellafill is a bovine filler (cow collagen) combined 80/20 with acrylic glass microspheres (called PMMA) that stay in your skin. After period of time the collagen is absorbed and the microspheres stay behind, which causes your body to produce collagen around them. Allure magazine called Bellafill an anti-aging game changer.
Please note: A skin test is required prior to treatment. People wiith allergies to beef collagen cannot use Bellafill.
