Dermal Filler
Need a plumper, more youthful look? Dermal filler can provide the lost volume by using hyaluronic acid to produce a natural look.
As we age, we begin to lose volume in our face due to the degeneration of the fat pads. This can result in skin sagging or just an overall loss of structure. Another part of the aging process is the loss of collagen production which is what provides the plumpness in our skin.
The LAB has many different types of filler to help you reach your aesthetic goals. We use the Juvederm and Merz collections of filler which we believe provide a very natural affect.

What are dermal fillers?
Dermal filler is comprised of Hyaluronic Acid (HA). As an important building block of the skin's structure, HA draws moisture into the tissues, plumping and easing out wrinkles. The results of filler injections can be seen right away as the filler triggers the production of collagen. These benefits will continue to improve. Dermal filler can last for nine to twelve months, sometimes longer, making it an excellent value. Instantly after treatment, patients will have smoother, more contoured features and a more youthful appearance.
Where can dermal filler be used?
Lips
Add hydration or volume to your lips. Want a more structured lip line? Filler can help with that too.
Cheeks
Help add more structure back to your face by adding volume to your cheeks.
Chin
Provide a more symmetrical look by balancing out your chin.
Jawline
One of the most popular filler treatment for men. Construct a more structured jaw with filler.
Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines)
Reduce the heaviness around the mouth by adding the lost volume in your upper face.
Under Eyes
Hate the look of dark under eyes? By adding filler, there is more of a separation between the skin and the blood vessels that cause the dark affect.

What are Merz fillers?
Merz has two distinct types of dermal fillers, Radiesse and Belotero. Radiesse is the first and only FDA-approved CaHA portfolio that gives you immediate results plus long-term improvement. While providing immediate contouring, the Calcium hydroxylapatite, or CaHA, stimulates collagen and elastin production to increase results! Belotero is an HA injectable filler that completely integrates into the skin tissue. While some fillers are designed to rebuild facial volume and structure, Belotero is designed to be a smooth, flexible gel that fills moderate-to-severe etched-in lines and wrinkles such as vertical lip lines above and around the lips.
Radiesse can be used to treat:
Lower Face
Jawline
Hands

This depends on the product used, the area injected, and the patient. Most filler injections last for 6–12+ months.
-
Each filler is a different structure of formula which results in the filler being thicker or thinner. This allows us to treat different areas and create different outcomes. For example, you would want a softer filler for your lips and a more rigid filler for your jaw line!

Results will be noticable immediately! But your final outcome can take up to 2 weeks for the filler to settle into the tissue.
