Derma Fillers

As we age the number of collagen fibers decrease and the underlying tissues that keep our skin looking youthful and plump begins to lose its elasticity where wrinkles begin to form, smile lines form around the mouth and crows feet appear around the eyes.

Collagen

Collagen is a natural protein found in the human body. It helps to form our connective tissues and give our skin strength. When injected beneath the skin, these fillers plump up lines and wrinkles and add fullness to sunken areas of the face to give a smoother and more youthful appearance. Most often, collagen injections treat areas around the mouth like laugh lines and deep nasolabial creases.

Juvéderm

Juvéderm is one of the newest fillers on the market. Juvéderm™ provides a smooth, natural look and feel. Results are immediate with minimal recovery time and can last up to 12 months.

Restylane™

Restylane, created by Q-Med and FDA-approved in 2003, is a non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (NASHA) gel solution. Hyaluronic acid is a bioengineered, naturally occurring bacteria that is purified and then converted into a biodegradable gel form that's injected into treated areas.
