Not all plastic surgery requires an extensive operation. Injectable fillers create a fuller, more youthful appearance without going under the knife. This procedure can help fill out thin lips, enhance shallow contours, soften creases and wrinkles, and improve the appearance of scars.
Juvederm / Restylane
One of the most popular forms of fillers is hyaluronic adic (Juvederm and Restylane). Like your skin, hyaluronic acid is a natural component of connective tissue. This soft filler can help correct wrinkles and add volume to desired areas. Juvederm injections can last for 6-24 months, but vary among patients and areas treated. Many patients are intrigued by dermal fillers and injectables because they don't involve a surgical procedure and recovery period.
Skinvive
Skinvive by Juvederm is injected as tiny, intradermal micro-droplets of hyaluronic acid within the dermis layer. You won't see any change in the volume or shape of your face - just healthier looking skin for a lasting glow.
What to expect
These procedures are performed in the plastic surgeon’s office and don’t require pain relief. Side effects are typically mild and can include bruising, redness, swelling, and itching. While very rare, allergic reactions are possible. If side effects do occur, they typically don’t require downtime.
