We have several types of wrinkle fillers available for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. The hollow areas under the eyes, skin creases, wrinkles, sagging cheeks, can all be improved with the use of fillers. A consultation is the best way to find which product is most appropriate for you.

RESTYLANE and PERLANE

Restylane and Perlane, non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid fillers, have recently become available and many patients are choosing them because they can last longer than collagen products. They bind with the naturally occurring hyaluronic acid in your skin and are used for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. Perlane is thicker and is used for deeper wrinkles, or in the cheeks to elevate and tighten the skin. Restylane can also be used for lip enhancements and to fill scars.

RADIESSE

Radiesse is a dermal filler that stimulates the body to produce new collagen. It is used for facial contouring and augmentation without invasive surgery or scarring. It starts a process called collagenesis, which encourages your body to produce your own collagen around the injection area, for a naturally younger look.

COLLAGEN

Zyplast and Zyderm collagen are gradually being replaced with Cosmoplast and Cosmoderm human collagen and recently Restylane. The advantage of the human collagen products is that no allergy tests are required. Otherwise the results are the same as for the older bovine collagen product for filling in depressed scars and wrinkles.
