Juvederm Lip Augmentation

Juvederm lip augmentation


Before & After Restylane tear trough augmentation

We have been injecting dermal fillers for 10 years and during that time we have developed expertise at helping you select the product that will best suit your needs.

As we age, our skin slows in its ability to produce collagen. This results in the formation of lines, wrinkles and folds as well as loss of lip volume and definition. Additionally, we experience the atrophy or loss of subcutaneous tissue (fat). The presence of fat under our skin confers the rounded appearance of youth; its absence manifests as the gaunt look of the aged.

Dermal fillers are indicated for correction of wrinkles, fine lines, depressed scars, nasolabial folds (around the nose), marionette lines (around the mouth), lip augmentation, and tear trough deformity (the under-eye groove). They are increasingly being used for cheek, chin and hand augmentation. Collagen, one of the first fillers, has been surpassed with other technologically superior longer lasting ones. Treatment consists of injecting a small amount of filler under the numbed skin at the defect site. The possible side effects of bruising, swelling and mild redness are very transient and easily managed. Results are immediately appreciated.

Hyaluronic Acids:

Juvederm™Injectable Gel, Perlane, and Restylane
Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of skin. It is closely associated with collagen and elastin fibers, all of which give our skin its shape. Restylane, Perlane and JUVEDERM™ Injectable Gel are synthetically derived from bacteria and are non-allergenic eliminating the need for skin testing. Years of use worldwide have shown all to be both to be safe and effective. These fillers are easily injected and yield excellent, natural looking results which are maintained for about a year.

Before and After Radiesse Cheek Augmentation

Radiesse
Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite) is a synthetic, bone-like material. It has been used as a filler for years worldwide. More robust than hyaluronic acid, it is an excellent filler for deep folds, scars, and wrinkles. One of the most exciting uses for this great filler is in augmentation of the cheek, chin and hands. Due to its heavy nature, “a little goes a long way,” and correction can be achieved with smaller amounts of this material. Results are typically maintained for 12–18 months.

Dear Dr. Cohen, “Thank you so very much for what you have done for me! Now when I look in the mirror, I don’t have to say, who’s that? I can now say, she’s back! I feel that 10 years have been taken from my face with the [Radiesse] filler. I will be your patient for life! Thanks again.” — Patty W

Before and after 4 Sculptra Treatments


Sculptra

As the field of aesthetic medicine has evolved, so too has our understanding of the aging face. The face-lift has long been revered as the only treatment option for facial aging however, we now recognize that “tight is not always right”, and that loss of volume and deflation in the face plays a critical role in the aged look. This loss cannot be corrected with surgery. A youthful face is devoid of lines and wrinkles but it is also full. With age, the convexities (roundedness) of the young face transform into concavities (hollows). These cause shadows to form thus producing a gaunt look which may be more aging than wrinkles!

Fortunately, this volume loss can now be corrected with Sculptra. Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid) is technically a filler substance, but it differs greatly from hyaluronic acids and Radiesse. When injected, it induces dermal thickening by increasing the amount of collagen in the skin. Due to this unique nature, it is known as a stimulatory filler. Normally several treatments are required and the correction is gradual however the final results are natural looking. This restoration of fullness can turn back the hands of time by 15 to 20 years! Results are very impressive and are sustained for at least twenty-five months and in my experience, even longer.
