Sacramento Dermal Fillers

Restylane® and Perlane®

Dermal Fillers The non-surgical beauty treatment to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

At a certain stage, usually in a person's forties and up, a loss of volume in the mid-face can be added to the growing list of concerns that cause men and women to seek improvements from a non-surgical treatment. Today's extensive menu of non-surgical treatments has something for everyone, especially if you're scalpel-shy.

Non-surgical solutions go far to bridge the gap between what you can get at a beauty salon and what you can get in the cosmetic surgeon's operating room. Non-surgical advancements like injectables and resurfacing procedures are relatively affordable and generally have little downtime.

When it comes to dermal fillers, make sure you know the difference. There is a lot of consumer confusion about what goes where and what fills what. Restylane® and Perlane® are not the new BOTOX® Cosmetic. BOTOX and the Restylane family of products are used in different ways.

Restylane is the world's best-selling dermal filler and Perlane is the newest member of the Restylane family. Restylane and Perlane fill in wrinkles from under the surface of the skin, which adds volume to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). BOTOX Cosmetic relaxes the muscles that cause frown lines between your eyebrows.

Sculptra®

Ready for a long lasting remedy for deep facial wrinkles and sunken areas?

Sculptra® is a collagen regeneration product that unlike fillers (Restylane, Perlane and collagen), works by actually stimulating your skins own fibroblasts to produce new collagen.
As its name implies, a series of treatments with Sculptra will fill in and recontour areas where underlying supportive collagen and fat tissue have diminished with age or have been damaged or scarred via injury or disease.
Sculptra is a unique collagen volume stimulating treatment, ideal for sagging, wrinkled aging skin, and can produce a remarkable non surgical facial filling, providing sufficient Sculptra is used.
It works by stimulating skin cells called fibroblasts that are responsible for manufacturing the supportive structural tissues we call collagen.
As we age, our collagen quality and quantity diminishes. Folds, wrinkles and hollowness appear on our faces. The loss of our skins fullness and plumpness can now be reversed by this truly remarkable skin regeneration product.
The Sculptra benefit is long lasting and achieved through a simple series of injections into the deeper layers of skin, with each treatment taking less than 30 minutes.
Between 3 and 4 treatment sessions, about 4 to 6 weeks apart, are necessary to produce a very substantial collagen volume to plump up the skin.
New collagen production appears slowly and gradually over a period of months, for a natural healthy, fuller look.
Sculptra is composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a synthetic material. Sculptra is not made from human or animal sources and does not require a skin test. Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is a biocompatible (does not harm the body), biodegradable (able to be broken down by the body) material that has been widely used for many years in surgical products. The effects are long-lasting; they were shown in a clinical study to last for up to 2 years after the first treatment session.
Sculptra has a 7 year history of clinical use in Europe with over 150,000 patients already treated.
FDA approved in the United States in 1999, to correct facial wasting, as a consequence of HIV infection, Sculptra can be used for “Facial Rejuvenation" to restore the youthful fullness of our temples, cheeks, chin, glabella, eye areas, and hands lost with the passage of time.

PREVELLE®

Prevelle® is a dermal filler that is a colorless hyaluronic acid gel that contains a small quantity of a local anesthetic (Lidocaine) to provide pain relief at the injection site. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the human body, which moisturizes (hydrates) and cushions the skin. Prevelle Silk is naturally broken down by your body over time. Skin testing is not required and does not contain animal products.

Prevelle is injected into facial skin, using a very fine needle, for correction of moderate to fine lines, wrinkles and folds. The gel plumps the skin to smooth away wrinkles and folds. In general, repeat treatments are needed within 1-3 months to maintain the desired result, but the timing of additional treatment varies from patient to patient.

There's never been a better time to seek treatment for the correction of facial lines and wrinkles due to aging.
