HOW IT WORKS

Dermal fillers are injectable compounds that combine with the natural proteins and hormones in your skin to minimize fine lines and wrinkles, and improve the appearance of scars by restoring the skin’s natural elasticity. Unlike Botox, which uses a paralytic to smooth out the skin, dermal fillers work from within the skin, triggering the production of collagen and elastin to fill in those lines and scars with new, healthy skin.

RESULTS

The effect from using these fillers is immediate. Upon injection, the compound smoothes out the flaws in your skin as soon as it settles. It binds with proteins as the collagen and elastin begin working, restoring elasticity and creating new skin cells to fill in the target area. As the compounds are absorbed, their effect lessens but your skin will still retain its effects.

TYPES OF DERMAL FILLERS

JUVÉDERM® ULTRA XC

Juvéderm Ultra XC is an injectable made of hyaluronic acid — a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. Enhanced specifically for patient comfort, this gel is formulated with 0.3 percent lidocaine, a mild local anesthetic that reduces all the immediate feeling of discomfort and pain that is associated with this kind of cosmetic procedure. Your medical professional eases Juvéderm injectable gel under the skin to instantly restore your skin’s volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your “smile lines” or “parentheses” around the mouth. Juvéderm provides a smooth, natural look and feel.

With Juvéderm, the injection process only takes about 15 minutes and results are immediate with minimal downtime. Results are immediate and last for 6-to-9 months.

JUVÉDERM® ULTRA PLUS XC

Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC is similar to Juvéderm Ultra XC but offers more plumping, provides more volume and lasts longer: from nine to 12 months. 

JUVEDERM VOLUMA XC

The Voluma XC treatment is a volume-filler that will make your skin look years younger, naturally. This filler is injected into the skin and instantly acts as a cheek filler lasting up to 2 years.

VOLBELLA XC

Volbella XC is specially formulated for the lip area to enhance the fullness of the lips and soften the appearance of perioral lines. Over time, lips begin to lose their natural elasticity and fullness. Repeated contraction of the lips are muscles around the lips can also contribute to the development of vertical lines, or perioral lines, at or above the upper lips. Perfect for those experiencing volume loss, thinning of the lips and/or flattening of the cupid’s bow, Volbella XC is a soft, smooth gel that is specially formulated to look and feel more natural for the lips. Customized with VYCROSS technology for tight and efficient cross-linking, it also has a low affinity for water and a low cohesivity, which overall contributes to its durability. This also provides the patient with a longer-lasting look. As with most injectables, your medical provider at True MedSpa will work closely with you to provide you with a customized look based on your personal preferences and goals. Whether your goal is to soften perioral lines, rejuvenate to a full and plump lip, or to have subtle, full lips, Volbella XC at TrueMedSpa helps to reveal your TRUE smile. Results last up to 1 year.

Radiesse

Radiesse is a smooth consistency injectable gel made of calcium hydroxylapatite. It has been proven to stimulate the production of the body’s collagen and instantly correct facial wrinkles. It is now available with lidocaine to make the process comfortable for the patient. Results are immediate and last up to 12 months.
