Our facial cosmetic specialists use the following injectable fillers:

• Hyaluronic acid fillers (including Restylane & Juvederm Ultra Plus)
• Radiesse
• Sculptra
• Silikon 1000 

Hyaluronic acid fillers (Restylane & Restylane Silk, Restylane Lyft, Juvederm Ultra & Ultra Plus, Juvederm Voluma, Belotero)  

These are the most commonly used fillers in the US. Hyaluronic fillers are similar to a naturally occurring hyaluronic acid that’s found in the connective tissues of your skin. These compounds bind water. Because of this, they are good at restoring volume in the skin and softening lines and wrinkles.

These products are safe and effective to use and can last up to two years (Voluma). 

Radiesse

Radiesse is a composite type filler that is made up of small spheres and a smooth gel. Cosmetic professionals use Radiesse to augment (or plump up) the cheeks, nasolabial folds, and most recently for the skin on the hands. Radiesse is a safe and effective filler that can last up to two years. 

For some patients, radiesse injections can stimulate the body's own production of collagen. This can lengthen downtime needed between follow-up injections.

Sculptra

Sculptra is a filler that works best to fight overall facial volume loss—or loss of fullness in your face. It stimulates skin cells to produce more collagen over time, resulting in a more full, natural, youthful facial appearance. Sculptra can also help correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds that appear with aging.

It will take several months to see full results of Sculptra. Patients typically require multiple injection sessions. The results of Sculptra are long lasting and patients may see benefits for more than 24 months.

Silikon 1000

Silikon is a medical-grade silicone solution and is a permanent filler. This treatment is inexpensive and best to treat many scars at once so patients don’t need repeated treatments over time. Most patients need a series of injections (usually four to five). Injections are spaced six to eight weeks apart from each other.

Silikon triggers your skin to produce collagen, which slowly fills in volume loss or scars. We use a micro-droplet technique, meaning we use very small volumes of silicon at each injection site. This helps prevent the product from moving to different areas in your skin. It also reduces nodule formation.

Most common side effects include bruising and mild swelling at the treatment sites.
