WHAT ARE DERMAL FILLERS?
Dermal fillers are used to add volume to the skin. Many wrinkles on the face, such as the “marionette lines” (lines from the nose to the corner of the mouth) are caused by a loss of volume in the skin over time. Dermal facial fillers are injected into the skin to replace the volume and soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
FOR HOW LONG DO DERMAL FILLERS LAST?
There are many different kinds of dermal fillers, and each tends to work well in some areas and not so well in others. These products can last anywhere from months to years. Working with Neaman Medi Spa will help identify the dermal fillers that are right or your face and produce the results you desire.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN BOTOX AND DERMAL FILLERS?
Botox and dermal fillers like, Sculptra are both injectable treatments. However, fillers differ in that they are used to fill in or plump up areas while Botox relaxes facial muscles. Fillers are used in soft tissue areas to restore the look of youthfulness by restoring volume as well as filling in folds and wrinkles. Botox is injected into the muscle and designed to relax the one causing the wrinkle to show.
IN WHAT AREAS OF THE FACE/BODY ARE FILLERS USED?
Aside from the face to help minimize the appearance of wrinkles and folds, fillers have a long-standing record of treating a variety of conditions including hands, décolleté, knees, feet, and more.
WHAT IS RESTYLANE?
Restylane is a widely used dermal filler made from hyaluronic acid. Restylane is a natural sugar that binds to the body’s natural store of water to enhance the skin by plumping it and smoothing it, to give it a youthful appearance. Wrinkles and creases around the lips as well as under and around the eyes are improved effectively with Restylane.
WHAT IS JUVEDERM?
Like Restylane, Juvederm is also made from hyaluronic acid and does all that Restylane does. However, there are two types of Juvederm: Juvederm Ultra, which is used for moderately deep facial wrinkles and to add volume to lips, while Juvederm XC is a more dense formula, used for much deeper facial folds.
WHAT IS SCULPTRA?
Sculptra is one of the longest lasting fillers, and it also stimulates collagen growth. It smoothes wrinkles and folds and is particularly good with the deep folds, such as the “marionette lines” running from the nose to the chin.
