Restylane

Restylane is safe, effective, long-lasting dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that already exists in our bodies. Treatments are simple and convenient, offering almost instantaneous results. Lines and folds will appear softer and smoother and lip volume will be enhanced.
Restylane is FDA approved and does not require allergy skin testing before using. Restylane lasts about 6 months.

Perlane

A hyaluronic acid, which augments the body's natural supply that has become depleted with age. The injected Perlane fills up scars, lines and wrinkles on the face. Perlane is not a permanent product and is broken down in the body. At most, the wrinkle free face remains for about 6-8 months after injection of Perlane.

Radiesse

A dermal filler used in an array of treatments ideal for correcting the signs of aging or adding natural contours to the face. A standard setting cosmetic filler, it uses advanced, calcium-based microsphere technology to deliver soft, natural-looking results you can see immediately. Radiesse lasts 9-18 months.

How do I know if Hyaluronic acid is safe for me?

Prior to receiving some Hyaluronic acid treatments, patients are skin tested to determine if there is any sensitivity to the implant. The skin test, usually in the forearm, takes less than 5 minutes and ninety-seven percent (97%) of men and women tested can safely be treated with Hyaluronic acid implants.

How is the treatment administered?

Appointments average approximately 60 minutes, depending on the area to be treated. The implant is injected intradermally through a very small needle into the appropriate facial areas. The Hyaluronic acid contains a small amount of anesthetic making the procedure more comfortable, but like any other injection to the face, discomfort is relative to your facial sensitivity. Most patients return to normal activity immediately following the procedure. Ongoing series of customized treatments are as easy and convenient as the first one.

How long do dermal fillers last?

Hyaluronic acid is not permanent, but there is no down time after the treatment and no surgery. Hyaluronic acid is reabsorbed by the body. The rate at which it is reabsorbed varies in each patient. On average, Hyaluronic acid lasts 3-7 months.
