Everything You Need to Know About Dermal Fillers

In the modern world, common problems usually have common solutions. When it comes to fine lines and wrinkles, the market is no different. At this point, nearly everyone knows about dermal fillers. This recent demonstration (performed on a cherry tomato) illustrates the basic principle well enough.

As we age, our skin produces less collagen and elastin—two structural proteins responsible for skin health, tightness, and tone. To make matters worse, sagging skin combines with loss of volume  to create a gaunt, elderly face, damaging both our appearance and our confidence.

Facial volume loss is caused by a natural decline in hyaluronic acid. Thankfully, with just a few minutes of your time and a quick cosmetic injection, replacing that skin-boosting substance has never been easier.

In the meantime, here’s everything you need to know about popular dermal fillers in Frisco, TX!

JUVÉDERM®

To understand JUVÉDERM, it’s best to consider how and where fine lines and wrinkles form. In some areas of your face, skin remains resistant to creases and wrinkles. But where muscle groups cause contractions or more drastic movement, fine lines and wrinkles inevitably appear. 

This is especially true around the mouth and lips where speaking, smiling, frowning, sneering, and even eating cause:

  • Smile lines
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines
  • Smoker’s lines
  • More

In this facial area, JUVÉDERM reigns supreme. Made of six different hyaluronic acids, JUVÉDERM can be used to flatten wrinkles around the mouth while defining the lips for that perfectly pouty look we all love and desire. 

Restylane®

Similar to JUVÉDERM, Restylane is ideal for applications in and around the lips and mouth. It’s also an excellent filler for cheeks and several other tactical applications elsewhere on the face. 

Some versions of Restylane can go directly into your lips for an immediate POP to both shape and size. Alternatively, Restylane can smooth many of the same wrinkles as JUVÉDERM for a more youthful appearance. 

Most impressively, upwards of 95% of Restylane patients still notice visible results after 18 months. For full cheeks, plump lips, and smoother skin, Restylane is a definite winner. 

Sculptra®

In nearly each of us, a lifetime of facial expressions combines with volume loss to create a sunken, wrinkled appearance. But facial contractions can travel far beyond the muscles responsible for them, creating fine lines and wrinkles in far-flung facial areas. 

Naturally, by squinting, laughing, and frowning, we create lines around the eyes. But facial creases can travel to the nose, cheeks, and even temples, creating a web of fine lines that can be difficult to treat with just one dermal filler injection in just one area. 

To address these lines nearly anywhere, there’s Sculptra Aesthetic—an injectable solution containing microparticles of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA).  PLLA boosts the production of your body’s own collagen over time as it dissolves. 

Sculptra can be used over a large area, improving overall facial volume loss in addition to fine lines and wrinkles. Ultimately, Sculptra is ideal for total facial rejuvenation.

Silhouette Instalift®

Treatment options for facial rejuvenation also go beyond just dermal fillers and cosmetic injections. For a more total facial rejuvenation, there’s Silhouette Instalift—a thread lift procedure using micro-suspension technology for instant and visible effects.

Ideal for the cheeks and midface areas, Silhouette Instalift has holistic benefits for skin across the entire face. The procedure works by inserting medical-grade sutures to reposition underlying soft tissue. These sutures are primarily responsible for the instant lift in facial features, but Silhouette Instalift doesn’t stop there.

Your skin registers the implanted sutures as “damage,” even if they aren’t causing any harm. In response, it supercharges collagen production for smoother skin, tighter features, fewer wrinkles, and accelerated healing across the board.

Silhouette Instalift provides numerous benefits in a quick, in-office procedure, including:

  • Minimal downtime
  • Natural looking results
  • Comprehensive facial rejuvenation & lifting
  • Long-lasting results (18 months or longer)
  • No general anesthesia required
  • More affordable than surgical procedures (facelifts, necklifts, etc.)
