Dermal Fillers: Restylane

Dr. Kris Reddy FACS, Performs Dermal Fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Radiesse for a Mild Improvement in Volume.

Restylane is a form of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in our bodies. It is well suited to plump thin lips and fill facial creases such as nasolabial folds. It may be appropriate for some surface wrinkles and concave scars. The fullness achieved from Restylane treatment may last 6 months or longer.

Dermal Fillers: Juvederm

Juvederm injectable gel is a dermal filler that helps to restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" or "parentheses" (nasolabial folds - the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth). Juvederm is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration.

Juvederm patients like the natural look and feel that Juvederm provides. Friends and family typically comment that a patient looks rested and more youthful. However, they don't frequently realize that a filler was utilized to achieve that rejuvenation.

Dermal Fillers: Radiesse

Radiesse can smooth and enhances key areas of the face. Radiesse can also:

*Reduce lines between the nose and mouth and on the upper lip*Fill in the so called "smile lines" and "frown lines"*Diminish blemishes like acne scars*Renew fullness in the lips*Restore the natural contours of the cheeks

Radiesse is a completely synthetic compound comprised of microspheres of calcium hydroxylapatite, combined with an aqueous gel. Calcium is a natural substance already in the body so Radiesse rarely causes allergic reactions or inflammation.
