Wrinkle Fillers

There are all sorts of names for wrinkles and all sorts of reasons why we get them. But the bottom line is, even if we spent all those years laughing our heads off, we still don't want the visible proof of it on our faces. Wrinkle Fillers were created to smooth out those deeper wrinkles, especially ones created by sun damage and the aging process. Wrinkle Fillers add support and padding to the face for a younger more youthful appearance.
Wrinkle Fillers are injected underneath the skin — right underneath the wrinkle itself — and act as a physical support system for the skin. Wrinkle Fillers add foundation to the skin and collagen and hold up areas that have become indented.

How Do Wrinkle Fillers Work?

Wrinkle fillers are injected into your skin to push the wrinkle outward, making the skin fuller and the wrinkle less noticeable. The skin is supported and padded. Skin is smoother, creating a more youthful appearance. We offer several types of Wrinkle Fillers including Juvederm, Princess, Ellansé and Radiesse.

Ellansé

The first and the only dermal fillers which act as biostimulator of collagen with thre results lasting up to 2-3 years. Ellanse is made of Poly-caprolactone (PCl), is a well-known totally bioresorbable soft medical polymer. PCl is used in numerous CE-marked and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved commercial bloresorbable product applications for several decades world-wide and has demonstrated an excellent safety profile.

Juvederm and Princess

Both products are made of Hyaluronic acid, found naturally in your skin and other tissues. Hyaluronic acid are largely used and a great choise to creat fuller lips, fill wrinkls and lines like Naso-labial folds, jowls, 'Marionette' lines. HA treatments last 6 - 12 months. Regular 'Booster' treatments provide a longer lasting result.

Radiesse (formerly Radiance)

Radiesse is the injectable wrinkle filler used to fill deep wrinkles and lines. Radiesse is long-lasting; recent studies have shown that a single Radiesse treatment can last a year or longer. Radiesse is made of microscopic calcium crystals suspended in a gel, and it has already proven safe in several other medical applications. Unlike collagen, no skin testing is required and allergic reactions are uncommon. Results are visible immediately following the treatment and Radiesse is popular among patients because it contains no animal products, is very compatible with the body, and lasts much longer than other injectable fillers. Radiesse gives great results when used as cheek-bone enhancer, filler for the Naso-Labial folds and other areas that need volume.

What Do Wrinkle Fillers Treat?
Wrinkle fillers are especially effective on deep lines or wrinkles - the ones you can see even when your face is fully relaxed. They can also be used on any indentation in your skin, such as scars.

What Are Wrinkle Filler Treatments Like?
Wrinkle filler treatments are performed in the office. Anesthesia and topical creams are used to numb the treatment area. Wrinkle filler is then injected, using a very thin needle, and results can be seen immediately. You can get back to your normal activities the following day.

Does It Hurt and What Can Go Wrong?
Serious complications from wrinkle fillers are rare. Swelling, redness and tenderness might occur, but minimize over a few days.

What should I expect from Wrinkle Filler Treatment?
There is no pain after the injection. Immediately after the treatment, you can expect slight redness, swelling, tenderness or an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the injection. The discomfort is temporary and generally disappears within a few days.
The length of time of wrinkle correction varies depending upon the filler used and the severity of the wrinkle. For severe wrinkles, surgery is necessary to get the best and longest-lasting improvement.
