JUVÉDERM®, Perlane®, RADIESSE®, and/or Restylane® are injected into facial tissue to smoothen and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and folds, by temporarily adding volume to the skin. Injectable fillers may also be used to augment the lip line.
JUVÉDERM®
JUVÉDERM® XC injectable gel is a smooth consistency hyaluronic acid dermal filler that helps to instantly 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). JUVÉDERM® XC comes in two formulations—JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC and JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC. JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC provides versatility in contouring and volumizing facial wrinkles and folds. JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC is a more robust formulation for volumizing and correcting deeper folds and wrinkles.
Perlane®
Perlane® is a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that is specifically formulated to add volume like your body's own hyaluronic acid. Just like Restylane®, Perlane® adds volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. What makes Perlane® different is the average size of the particles and the depth of injection. On average, the gel particles in Perlane® are larger which makes Perlane® a good choice for wrinkles that benefit from a deeper injection into the skin.
RADIESSE®
RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler is made of tiny calcium-based microspheres which are suspended in a natural, water-based gel. Over time, your body absorbs these tiny microspheres and the gel and leaves behind only your own natural collagen. This injectable filler works by immediately restoring facial volume to smooth out the signs of aging. Once injected, it works with your body to stimulate the production of your own natural collagen for results that may last a year or more in many patients.
Restylane®
Restylane® adds volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). Restylane®, a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid, is specifically formulated to act like your body's own hyaluronic acid and works immediately by adding volume to smooth away wrinkles. You can use Restylane® to visibly reduce moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds), the area just below the nose and above the upper lip (lipstick lines) and the area that extends downward from the corners of the mouth to the jawline (marionette lines). Restylane can also add fullness and definition to lips in patients over 21 years, providing natural-looking and lasting results with just one treatment.
