Other Dermal Filler Options

The RHA® Collection of dermal fillers provides very natural-looking results because they are specifically designed to move with your facial expressions. This means that as you smile or laugh, the filler will move with your face instead of creating an unnatural appearance or shape. The result is a subtle and natural-looking enhancement that won’t draw attention away from your other features.

Not just another filler. Sculptra is a biostimulatory aesthetic injectable that helps stimulate your own natural collagen production to smooth facial wrinkles and improve skin tightness, revealing a refreshed-looking you. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which fill lines, wrinkles, and folds, Sculptra is the original FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) collagen stimulator that can improve skin glow, tightness, and jawline contour for up to 2 years.

Radiesse is a dermal filler used for facial rejuvenation, primarily to restore volume and correct wrinkles. Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier.
How it works: Radiesse doesn't just add volume directly. It also acts as a biostimulator, meaning it stimulates your body's natural collagen production. The CaHA microspheres provide a scaffold for new collagen to grow around, which improves the skin's elasticity and structure over time.
Primary Uses:
- Volume Loss: Restores volume in cheeks, temples, and jawline, counteracting age-related facial volume loss.
- Wrinkles and Folds: Corrects moderate to severe wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines.
- Chin and Jawline Contouring: Can help improve the definition of the chin and jawline.
- Hand Rejuvenation: Radiesse is also FDA-approved to correct volume loss in the hands.
Why it's different: The CaHA microspheres in Radiesse provide a longer-lasting effect than HA fillers as they are gradually metabolized by the body over a year or more, while the collagen they stimulate remains.

Long-Lasting Results: Because Radiesse stimulates collagen production, results often last 12 months or more.
Natural-Looking Volume Restoration: Radiesse restores volume in a way that looks natural, as it relies on your body's own collagen production.
Immediate and Progressive Improvement: You'll notice immediate volume restoration and gradual improvement over time as collagen production increases.
Improved Skin Quality: The newly formed collagen can improve skin texture and elasticity.
Versatility: Radiesse can be used in various facial areas for both volume correction and wrinkle reduction.
Minimally Invasive: Radiesse is administered through injections, making it a minimally invasive procedure with little to no downtime.

Initial Consultation: A thorough consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals and determine if Radiesse is the right treatment for you.
Treatment Plan: The provider will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and facial anatomy.
Preparation: The treatment area will be cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to reduce discomfort.
Injection: Radiesse is injected beneath the skin using a fine needle or cannula.
Massage: The treated area may be massaged to ensure even distribution of the filler.
Post-Procedure: You may be given ice packs to help reduce swelling.

Immediate Volume Restoration: You'll see an immediate improvement in volume in the treated areas.
Mild Swelling and Bruising: It is normal to experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site. These symptoms typically resolve within a few days.
Gradual Improvement: As the filler stimulates collagen, you'll see continued improvement in the treated area over time.
Minimal Downtime: Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately or shortly after treatment.
Post-Treatment Instructions: Follow your provider's instructions regarding aftercare, which may include avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and certain medications.
