The trend today is a less invasive approach to maintaining a happy, youthful appearance. Fewer complete face lifts are performed and are occurring later in life. We see an emphasis placed on building and maintaining the right structure to support the skin as it ages. There are many techniques used but the most common is the use of Dermal Fillers. New products are coming into the market each year and we research each carefully. We recommend and use Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus, Radiesse, and Restylane injectable fillers. Why all three? Each filler has a different consistency and works in specific way. Restoring volume is an art and a science. Our staff is experienced at defining which filler should be used in facial lines and folds as well as lips.

These products are made sterilely in the laboratory and do not contain any human or animal products. Allergic reactions to the older collagen products are avoided; thus skin testing in no longer needed. These products last longer than the collagen: Restylane lasts 6-9 months, Radiesse lasts 12-18 months and Juvederm lasts 9 to12 months or more.
