Dermal Fillers help you temporarily bring back facial volume that is lost over time. They are made of Hyaluronic Acid, a natural substance in the body that delivers volume to the skin. Fillers help add volume to different areas of the face without surgery while also temporarily restoring the volume loss beneath the surface.
Radiesse is an injectable biostimulator addressing collagen loss. Throughout life, about 1% of collagen is lost per year starting in our 20’s! Radiesse works by stimulating the natural production of your own collagen gradually for natural-looking results. It works deep in the skin to restore collagen structure and lost facial volume and to smooth facial wrinkles, lines, and folds. The effects are gradual as your skin forms collagen. Treatment areas include: Temporal hollows, Nasolabial Folds / Pyriform Hollow, Sunken Cheeks, Preauricular area and lateral laugh lines. Body areas: Neck, Arms, Backs of Hands, Knees and Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).
SKINVIVE, the newest injectable of its kind, is an injectable hydrator (no augmentation) that uses a microdroplet technique to deliver smooth hyaluronic acid that helps the skin retain its natural moisture which improves skin smoothness and fine lines of the cheeks. It creates a natural, radiant glow that reflects light more effectively off the cheek area. It is a fairly quick treatment you can have done over lunch without any downtime or add it on to any skin treatment for an ultimate glow everybody will want.
