Bridging the gap between you and your best skin: FAQs about Thoughtful Aging with Injectable Fillers Treatment

There are dozens of fillers on the market today. More are constantly being introduced. In fact, we just debuted Skinvive™, a twist on the popular Juvéderm® family of fillers. The makers of Juvéderm®, Allergan Aesthetics, characterize Skinvive™ as the first and only HA-based “microdroplet” injectable designed to improve the smoothness of the cheeks or mid-face. HA is an incredibly attractive filler ingredient, partly due to its biocompatibility. It gets along and integrates very well with natural tissues. It is also a water-loving molecule, which means that it binds well to water to plump the skin and provide a youthful appearance. We also offer the full menu of Juvéderm® fillers for everything from natural lip augmentation to the correction of wrinkles around the mouth and nose and volume loss in the cheeks. Last but certainly not least, we provide the highly durable “collagen booster:” Sculptra®.

Sculptra® is not formulated with HA. Instead, this gel is made from tiny particles of poly-L-lactic acid. This unique formulation triggers the process of collagen production. This natural firming protein breaks down with time, making way for lines, wrinkles, and laxity or sagging. By restoring collagen, you regain your attractive, balanced, and youthful contours. Due to this distinctive engineering, Sculptra® presents a particularly long-lasting filler. Results may be sustained for up to two years before maintenance injections are required.

The answer to that question starts with a consultation at our center in Tualatin, Oregon. Following an evaluation, we may recommend Juvéderm® XC for smile lines and other creases in the lower part of the face. To lift the fallen apples of the cheeks, Juvéderm® Voluma® may be in your future. Or, for more severe folds, Juvéderm® Vollure® may be more appropriate. If a depressed pout has you down on your looks and yourself, let’s take a closer look at Juvéderm® Volbella®! And, of course, Skinvive™ and Sculptra® are also great solutions for the right patient and to boost one’s skin radiance and smoothness.
