Hyaluronic acid is a chemical compound found in the foundational layers of your skin. It is most often used to smooth wrinkles by adding volume. Similarly, collagen is a protein found throughout the layers of your skin and is responsible for keeping your skin looking healthy, young, hydrated, tight and smooth.
Because your health and safety are two of our top priorities, we only use dermal filler formulations with collagen that is safe for use in humans. Even better, these injections encourage your body to produce its own collagen. Even as the hyaluronic acid is processed by your body, healthy collagen and elastin grow at a more significant rate.
This means you will see initial improvement nearly immediately. They will improve over six to eight weeks. The results of dermal filler treatments are incredibly durable.
In the case of Kybella, the results are permanent. Once fat cells are removed from the body, new fat cells cannot be grown in their place. Therefore, you will permanently have fewer fat cells in your neck and chin region. If you gain a significant amount of weight, you can have a touch-up treatment for the remaining fat cells. The results of volume-adding treatments are durable, as well.
Depending on the formulation you choose, the final results can last anywhere from six months to two years. Are you unsure about how large you want your lips to be? No worries. Because our dermal filler formulations feature hyaluronic acid, we can quickly and easily reverse your treatment with a painless injection of hyaluronidase.
Many people are satisfied with looking years younger for 18 to 24 months. Others want to take their skincare game to the next level and extend the longevity of their results even further. This is easily accomplished by making healthy lifestyle choices, such as eating healthy foods, staying hydrated, limiting alcohol consumption, wearing sunscreen and not smoking. While Florida banned smoking indoors in most workplaces, it can be hard to stay away from cigarettes in bars and restaurants that still allow outdoor smoking.
How are you supposed to socialize with all your friends who are smokers? However, we invite you to reach out to your primary care physician and ask him or her for local resources to help you quit smoking.
Cigarettes, and cigarette alternatives like e-liquid, contain nicotine. Nicotine elevates your blood pressure by constricting your blood vessels and preventing rejuvenating nutrients from reaching your skin.
If you must be outside between the hours of 10 AM and 4 PM, wear at least a broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen and reapply every four hours you are outside during daylight hours.
Another reason dermal filler injections are so popular is that nearly everyone is a good candidate. We only use dermal filler formulations with hypoallergenic active ingredients. That way, only your aesthetic goals determine which filler is ideal for you. However, to be an ideal candidate, it is important that you take good care of your skin between now and your scheduled appointment. Your session must be rescheduled if you have an active bacterial, viral, or skin infection, you have a fever, you have a sunburn to the treatment area, you have active shingles, or you have an active cold sore or fever blister.
Kybella is one of our most popular dermal filler options because it is designed to address submental fullness. Submental fullness refers to the appearance of excess fat under the chin and in bands around the neck.
This condition most often affects people with actual excess fat in the region. Typically, fat grafting is performed as an outpatient procedure, using general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Up to 2 weeks of downtime may be required, depending on the extent of liposuction performed. Your cosmetic surgeon will go over what to expect with surgery and recovery during your consultation.
How long the effects of dermal fillers will last depends on the product, the area of treatment, and the patient. Generally speaking, the denser the product is and the more deeply it is injected, the longer it will last, although this is not a hard and fast rule. To maintain your results, your cosmetic surgeon will simply repeat treatment, adjusting the amount and techniques as necessary to ensure optimal results.
Hyaluronic acid fillers tend to be the most temporary option, and therefore are often recommended for first-time filler patients. These will typically last from 6 to 18 months. Injections to the lips will wear out a little faster than those to the nasolabial folds. Synthetic fillers tend to last longer, as they are not absorbed by the body. Fat injections are meant to last indefinitely; however, some of the injected fat is expected not survive.
Initially, your cosmetic surgeon may overfill the treatment area, resulting in an initially fuller look that will gradually settle into a more natural appearance. With the help of an experienced, qualified provider, injectable fillers can provide natural-looking enhancements to help you feel more confident in your appearance.
