Skin Fillers (click for worldwide facilities list): Injectable fillers are minimally invasive cosmetic procedures that can plump thin lips, enhance shallow contours, soften facial creases and wrinkles, or improve the appearance of recessed scars. Finding a doctor with extensive, specific filler-treatment experience is important for safety and for achieving optimal results.
Some skin filler options are:
Collagen:
Collagen may come from several sources, including cow (bovine) skin, the patient's own skin, or skin of a deceased donor. Collagen is injected into the skin to treat certain acne and other scars on the face and to fill furrows on the forehead, cheeks, and lips. It can stay in the facial skin for up to six months or, in rare cases, as long as a year. Collagen must be re-injected every three to six months to sustain the appearance of fullness,
Collagen dermal fillers such as Cosmoderm and Cosmoplast are made of highly-purified human collagen, a natural protein that supports the skin and helps replenish collagen lost with time, exposure to sunlight and other factors.
ArteFill:
ArteFill is a gel filler consisting of millions of synthetic microspheres (polymethylmethacrylate or PMMA) suspended in purified bovine (cow) collagen.
ArteFill is injected directly beneath the wrinkle to add a permanent support structure and smoothen the area. The synthetic PMMA microspheres in ArteFill are non-resorbable, which means they are not absorbed into the body or metabolized, allowing ArteFill to last significantly longer than other injectable fillers.
Hyaluronic Acid:
Hyaluronic acid products are injected to decrease fine lines, creases and depressions and to restore skin volume and fullness.
Restylane or Perlane are cosmetic dermal fillers that replace lost volume and restore youthful contours to the skin to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). Restylane is the world's most used, most studied dermal filler. Restylane, a non-animal-based product, is a clear liquid gel and a natural sugar compound.
The hydrophilic nature of these hyaluronic acid molecules and their three dimensional structure allows them to bind many times their own weight in water. As hyaluronic acid begins to degrade, each molecule binds to more water, which helps to maintain its volume for about six months.
Restylane and Perlane contain no animal proteins. This limits any risk of animal-based disease transmission or allergic reactions.
Juvederm Ultra and Juvederm Ultra Plus are the next generation of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers. The gel substance is biocompatible. They are the only hyaluronic acid dermal fillers approved to last up to one year, providing a smooth, long-lasting correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. They contain a high concentration of non-animal, cross-linked hyaluronic acid, and were the first hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to demonstrate safety and effectiveness in patients of color
Hydroxyapetite:
Radiesse is considered a semi-permanent filler for deeper skin wrinkles and creases. Radiesse is a biocompatible, non-toxic, non-allergenic filler treatment that lasts two years or more, although touchups may be necessary throughout this time period. It can also be used to fill certain scars.
Sculptra:
Sculptra is a biocompatible injection that increases the thickness of the skin to treat skin folds and hollow or sunken areas of the face. The Sculptra filler provides up to 80 percent improvement in the treated areas. It produces results that are fully evident in three to six treatment sessions and lasts up to two years. This treatment was recently introduced in the United States.
Fat Transplantation
With fat rebalancing, fat may be harvested from certain areas of your body, often the lower abdomen, through liposuction and then placed in a syringe and injected through small incisions into the cheek, tear trough, temple or forehead. The care taken when fat is harvested, filtered, prepared and injected is crucial and helps yield more lasting results.
