There are several FDA approved facial fillers used for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth, such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and smile lines. They are safe and effective in replenishing hyaluronic acid, a natural element of the skin that adds volume. As you age, the hyaluronic acid in your skin diminishes, leaving the skin thin, sagging, and prone to wrinkles. Facial fillers fill these crevices below the skin’s surface in addition to stimulating the growth of your own collagen, thus rebuilding your skin’s foundation. Depending on the brand of facial filler, results will last for a period of six months to two years. Used in conjunction with BOTOX Cosmetic, results can be extended even further. The facial fillers available at Age Management Medical Center are: Radiesse, Restylane, Juvederm Plus, and Juvederm Ultra.
