The Juvederm Family of Injectable Cosmetic Fillers
General Purpose Filler
Effect Duration: 4 to 6 months
Juvederm dermal fillers look so natural only you will know, but you’ll look better (and feel better about your appearance!) right away. Treatments typically last from 4 to 6 months. Best of all, treatments can be reversed if you’re not happy with the results.
Smoother, More Natural Feel
Effect Duration: 4 to 6 months
Ultra is a little softer general purpose filler, which may result in a smoother, more natural feel to the treated areas but is also one reason why these treatments won’t last as long as similar treatments with Ultra Plus.
Longer Lasting
Effect Duration: 6 to 9 months
Ultra Plus contains larger particles, which results in a longer duration of effect from a single treatment. Ultra treatments typically last from 4-6 months, where Ultra Plus treatments may last up to 9 months.
Nasolabial Folds
Effect Duration: up to 18 months
The nasolabial folds, or the lines which run from the sides of our nose to the corners of our mouths, deepen with age as the connective tissues and hyaluronic acids are gradually lost.
Lips
Effect Duration: up to 1 year
Just as with other areas of our faces, our lips lose fullness and smoothness as we age. The loss of not only hyaluronic acid but also collagen and elastin can cause lips to become unnecessarily wrinkled and to thin out.
Cheeks and Jawline
Effect Duration: up to 2 years
Using Vycross technology, Voluma treatments last for up to 2 years and are best used for adding fullness to cheeks, smoothing the jawline and enhancing the overall shape and contour of the face.
The Restylane Family of Injectable Cosmetic Fillers
Smoother, More Natural Feel
Effect Duration: 3 to 6 months
Restylane treatments look so natural only you will know, but you’ll look better (and feel better about your appearance!) right away. Restylane face fillers last 3 to 6 months, or between 3 and 4 months for lips. This is due to the fact that we use our lips more than our other face muscles, which causes our body to flush out the Restylane faster from this area.
Longer Lasting
Effect Duration: up to 12 months
As we age, our skin loses volume as underlying muscle tissue atrophies and the natural volume enhancing compounds in our skin, such as hyaluronic acid, decrease in concentration. This can result in sunken cheeks and deep wrinkles in the areas where our face has natural fold lines, such as the nasolabial folds (from the corners of the nose to the corners of the mouth) and marionette lines (from the corners of our mouths to our chins).
Smoother, More Natural Feel
Effect Duration: up to 12 months
Refyne is an excellent filler for deeper wrinkles and folds, while at the same time having unparalleled flexibility, mimicking the movement of our own tissues so well as to look and react in a way that is indistinguishable from our own skin’s natural fillers. Most often used on marionette lines and nasolabial folds, Refyne can be used to effectively fill any moderate to deep wrinkles.
Longer Lasting
Effect Duration: up to 12 months
Defyne offers exceptional flexibility and support, and imitates the actions of young, healthy skin and underlying tissue, making it an excellent treatment option for areas of the face which experience a lot of movement. As your face moves and you make expressions, even the most extreme of smiles or frowns, Defyne will spring back into shape in the same way as your natural tissues.
Other Injectable Options
MODERATE TO FINE LINES
Effect Duration: 3 to 6 months
Contrary to popular belief, Botox injections won’t rob you of the ability to make normal facial expressions. Not a filler, but rather a nerve blocker, Botox, also known as onabotulinum-toxinA, is administered via tiny injections which simply relax the small muscles that cause wrinkles, and, as an added bonus, help to prevent new wrinkles, keeping you looking youthful longer.
FROWN LINES
Effect Duration: 3 to 4 months
Dysport is an injectable filler similar to Botox specifically for the treatment of frown lines. A popular treatment for both women and men, Dysport can erase or greatly reduce the appearance of these lines, making your face look younger and you look more friendly and approachable.
CHIN FAT
Effect Duration: permanent*
Fat under our chin, or ‘double chin’, which can cause us to look heavier than we are, can be a frustrating area to address. Even for those of us who exercise and eat healthy, we may find that this stubborn area of chin fat simply won’t go away. Kybella may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
*assuming no additional weight gained after treatment
SCLEROTHERAPY
Effect Duration: permanent*
While sclerotherapy does involve some discomfort, most patients report the procedure as being less painful than they anticipated and the vast majority feel that the dramatic results are worth it. Your varicose veins won’t just be diminished or reduced – they will literally disappear!
*new varicose veins may appear, however treated ones are permanently erased.
