BOTOX & DYSPORt Results
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable gels containing hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in your skin. This magic ingredient replenishes lost volume, effectively addressing concerns like thin lips, shallow contours, facial creases and wrinkles, scar appearance, and contour deformities. Hyaluronic acid acts like a sponge, attracting and retaining moisture, leaving your skin plump and hydrated. The result? A youthful and rejuvenated appearance, all without going under the knife.
Various dermal fillers are available, each with unique properties and ideal uses. Here’s a brief overview of two popular brands:
Juvederm offers a range of fillers with varying hyaluronic acid concentrations and thicknesses. Here are the types of Juvederm Fillers suitable for different concerns:

FDA-approved Volbella XC is designed for the under eyes, lips, and surrounding areas. It corrects lip lines and wrinkles while maintaining moisture. Results last up to one year.
Vollure XC
Vollure XC plumps the skin and addresses moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, with results lasting up to 18 months.
Voluma XC
Voluma XC is injected deep into the cheeks to add fullness, lift, and youthful definition. It’s also used in chin revolumization, jawline contouring, and temple revolumization. Results can last up to two years, with patients often needing less product for repeat treatments.

Juvederm Skinvive
