GET RID OF LINES & WRINKLES WITH DERMAL FILLERS

Lines and wrinkles form on the skin as part of the natural aging process. If you want smoother, more youthful-looking skin, dermal fillers may be the answer. RADIESSE^®, JUVEDERM^®, RESTYLANE^® (Classic, Lyft, Defyne, and Silk), and VERSA^® are all offered here at Advanced Laser Medspa. After meeting with you to discuss your medical history, medications, skin, and goals, Dr. Salzman can provide a comfortable injecting technique and outstanding results.

Treatable Areas

Areas on the face that can be treated by dermal fillers include the following:

● the vertical lines around the mouth (nasal-labial folds) ● the vertical lines from the corner of the mouth to the chin (marionette lines)

● the horizontal lines above and below the lips ● the horizontal lines underneath the lower lip and above the chin

● the hollows underneath the eyes and above the cheekbone. ● the vertical lines above and below the lip (peri-oral or smokers’ lines)

Besides using dermal fillers on facials lines, Dr. Salzman also uses the following fillers:

For lips, we use JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC or RESTYLANE&^® Defyne or Refine and we add numbing for your comfort. For aging hands, we use RADIESSE^®, FDA approved to reduce signs of aging and fill wrinkles, also can fill and plump aging hands.

For loss of volume in the face, we use RADIESSE^®, RESTYLANE^® Lyft, or JUVEDERM^® VOLUMA.

Risks and Side Effects

Side effects may include some bruising, bleeding at the injection site, tenderness, and swelling. Following proper pre- and post-care instructions and any verbal instructions from Dr. Salzman help ensure you get the best possible results from your treatment with minimal discomfort or side effects.

TYPES OF FILLERS

Dr. Salzman prefers to use Juvéderm^®, Radiesse^®, VERSA^®, Resylane^®, and SILK^®, all FDA approved injectable fillers. All injectable fillers look and feel natural in the skin and can last 6 months to a year or even longer. The length of time depends on the filler used, the individual, and other factors which the doctor will discuss with you.

Juvéderm^®, VERSA^®, and Restylane^® products are made of hyaluronic acid, a chemical naturally found in almost every cell of our body, and work by binding to water and expanding in the skin. Juvéderm^®, VERSA^®, and Restylane^® Defyne and Refyne create a soft and natural plumping effect when treating the lips as well as the vertical striations or “smokers’ lines” above and below the lips, and along the corners of the mouth and the “smile lines.” Versa, the latest FDA-approved hyaluronic product, promises to reduce swelling better than the other dermal fillers, and the company improved the product to give better outcomes than its competitors.

Radiesse^® works wonders on the deep lines around the mouth, above the chin line, along the jowls, and near the cheekbones. Radiesse^® also helps to stimulate your body to produce new collagen in the treated areas and creates an instant plumping and smoothing result in the skin.

Silk^®is also made of hyaluronic acid and also binds to water and expands in the skin. Silk^® is great for the fine lines on the face around the lips.

VERSA^® and Restylane^® Lyft are designed to fill in cheeks and replace lost cheek volume.
