Facial lines are one of the most distinct signs of aging and, luckily, they are among the easiest to treat. Depending on the area of the face where you have wrinkles and lines, there are several injectable products you can choose for treatment.
To determine your needs, we divide the face into three sections, upper, mid-face and lower face. Lines and wrinkles in the upper face are treated with Botox Cosmetic, a popular product that relaxes the muscles to ease lines. In the mid- and lower face, most facial lines are caused by a loss of collagen in the skin. This soft substance in the skin is what gives children and young adults’ skin that youthful elastic quality. Collagen loss is part of aging and it can cause deep facial lines in the mid and lower face. This is treated with substances known as dermal fillers.
Dermal fillers replace volume in the face where collagen is lost, plumping back up an area for a more youthful look. One of our most popular products, Radiesse, does this and helps your body create new collagen in those areas. This makes Radiesse a long-lasting procedure for replacing lost volume in skin.
Radiesse is non-allergenic because it consists of materials that already exist in the body. This makes Radiesse both safe and effective with long-lasting results. To learn more about Radiesse, please contact us today.
