Juvederm®/Restylane® are versatile dermal fillers that can address a number of facial signs of aging and produce beautiful, long-lasting results. They can smooth away wrinkles, folds, furrows and fine lines and even plump your lips. With no pain or downtime, you can undergo treatment on your lunch break and get back to life with a fresh, rejuvenated appearance.
What are Juvederm® and Restylane®?
These are smooth gel fillers that significantly diminishes the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines. Unlike the popular nerve-inhibitor BOTOX®, fillers contain hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance that occurs naturally in the body to help your skin look firm and youthful. As you get older, your skin’s natural HA levels begin to subside, causing a loss of volume and structure that can result in deep lines and wrinkles around your nose and mouth.
By injecting fillers such as Juvederm®/Restylane® into your skin and restoring your levels of HA, the appearance of wrinkles will naturally begin to fade. It is an excellent treatment option to:
- Replenish lost volume in the cheeks
- Fill in deep nasolabial folds
- Add volume to lips
- Treat small, vertical lines around the lips
The unique formula in these fillers looks and feels very soft and natural. Both Juvederm® and Restylane® treatment is reversible in the event of overcorrection or minor complications. This versatility provides Dr, Barnsley with greater control over your final results and minimizes the risk of complications.
Your Filler Procedure
During your non-surgical treatment session, the appropriate filler product will be injected into the targeted treatment areas by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Barnsley. With years of extensive training and clinical experience, our physicians understand the musculature and contours of the face and knows precisely how to soften lines and hollows.
The procedure itself is fast, easy and virtually painless. You may experience slight pressure or mild discomfort, but these sensations will quickly subside. Your results should be immediately visible and they will continue to develop over the next few days. For most patients, results last between six and nine months, at which point a follow-up treatment is necessary to refresh your results.
How Much Do Fillers Cost?
Treatment varies from patient to patient, a typical treatment session usually involves one to two syringes. 1-2 syringes are needed for most corrections, but volume restoration may require multiple syringes in some patients. Your customized treatment plan will be discussed by our trained physicians.
