Dermal Fillers To Rejuvenate Skin And Soften Wrinkles
Dermal fillers, also called soft-tissue fillers, are a category of injectables that add volume beneath the surface of the skin. Along with skin sagging and loss of elasticity, volume loss is a normal part of aging. The loss of volume leads to deep facial folds and wrinkles, hollows across the face, as well as skin that is less smooth.
At La Jolla Cosmetic Laser, dermal fillers we offer include:
Sculptra®
This filler causes your skin to produce new collagen in specifically chosen areas. Sculptra’s collagen stimulation action restores volume and rebalances facial contours in a way no other product can. Dr. Mani is a top Sculptra injector in San Diego County and is an official National Training Physician for Sculptra. A favorite among our patients, Sculptra creates a face-lift effect by causing your skin to produce more of its own collagen.
Juvederm®
Hyaluronic gel filler for lip plumping and wrinkle filling. Soft, smooth formulations contain lidocaine for enhanced injection comfort. We now offer Juvederm Ultra XC® and Juvederm Ultra Plus XC®.
Liquid Lift
A combination of appropriate fillers, collagen-stimulating Sculptra and wrinkle relaxers. Specific to each patient’s needs and desires.
Radiesse®
A long-lasting, calcium-based filler for deep folds, chin and cheek augmentation and nose refinement. Can also be used for hand rejuvenation. Dr. Mani is a specially selected Radiesse Training Physician for Merz Pharmaceuticals, makers of this novel long-term filler product. Medical Education Faculty Members are designated for their exceptional ability and proven techniques.
Radiesse® for Hands
Dr. Mani is a Certified Radiesse Hand Injector. Radiesse for hands provides volume replacement to minimize protrusion of veins and tendons.
Restylane®
The original hyaluronic acid gel for wrinkles, earlobe restoration, lines and folds. This injectable is integrated with lidocaine, which instantaneously numbs the injected area, making corrections comfortable and easily tolerable.
Restylane® Silk
The first FDA-approved filler for the fine lines around the mouth and subtle lip enhancement for delicate lips.
Restylane® Lyft
A “sister” product to Restylane that contains the same hyaluronic acid, but the construction is of larger gel particles and a higher concentration of hyaluronic acid. This makes Restylane Lyft best suited for mid to deeper dermal filling for facial folds, deep wrinkles and supportive type volume correction. Expect 8 to 10 months longevity with this filler. FDA-approved for mid-face volume and deep folds.
Restylane® Refyne and Defyne
These NEW fillers feature an innovative technology called XpresHAn (pronounced “expression”) which gives these gels more flexibility and support than other HA fillers. This allows the gels to move with your skin providing a very natural look with your facial movements and expressions.
Wrinkle Relaxers To Soften Facial Creases
Some types of wrinkles are caused by facial expressions and are not adequately addressed with a filler. Instead, they need a wrinkle-relaxing injectable that halts the activity causing the groove under the skin. Such injectables include:
BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein that has been used therapeutically for over 2 decades to treat a variety of medical conditions. Since 2002 it has been FDA-approved for cosmetic treatments. Enjoy one of the least costly facial aesthetic procedures — with no downtime. Your quick and simple treatment provides dramatic wrinkle reduction results. See your frown and worry lines, lip wrinkles and crow’s feet disappear.
Dysport®
Dysport is an injectable chemical muscle relaxant which works almost identically as BOTOX® Cosmetic. Developed in the UK in the early ’90s, Dysport has been used in Europe for many years for both medical and cosmetic purposes. Dysport was approved here in the U.S. in April 2009.
In our uses at La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic, we’ve found Dysport to be a faster-acting product. Longevity is similar to BOTOX®.
Xeomin®
Xeomin® is an injectable cosmetic treatment that improves the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles around the upper third of the face. Like Botox® and Dysport®, Xeomin®’s active ingredient is botulinum toxin, which temporarily relaxes the treated muscles to smooth away unwanted signs of aging.
