Juvederm
Juvederm is a collection of hyaluronic acid fillers. These include Juvederm Volbella, Vollure, Voluma, Ultra and Ultra Plus. Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in our bodies and helps deliver nutrients to the skin, retain moisture and softness and adds volume. Juvederm is used on different areas of the face to lift cheeks, smooth parentheses lines, plump the lips and augment different parts of the face. It can also be used to improve scarring.

Sculptra
I often get the questions, “Is Sculptra a filler?” and “How is Sculptra different?” Sculptra is an injectable biostimulator. It binds to your own collagen producing cells to wake them up to start producing collagen. Similar to how results with collagen stimulating lasers take four-six weeks to see results, so does Sculptra. Sculptra helps lift the jawline and neck and restores facial volume. Results can last for more than two years. Multiple sessions may be needed. Temporary swelling and bruising can occur.
Downtime: None, but mild swelling and bruising may occur.

Radiesse
Radiesse, with filler and biostimulating properties, volumizes immediately and works to stimulate your body’s collagen over time. It’s a denser filler that can be used for cheek, jawline, NSL fold, chin and hand augmentation. That’s right! Radiesse is one of the only FDA-approved products for hand rejuvenation. It helps minimize the appearance of bony and vascular structures of the back of the hands. Results have been shown to last a year or more, making treatment both immediate and long lasting.
Downtime: None, but mild swelling and bruising may occur.
Renuva
Renuva is an allograft adipose matrix (or donated fat from other people). It is a natural injection of fat without the need for Liposuction. It contains the same collagens, growth factors, and proteins as your own fat. When injected, Renuva is gradually replaced with your own fat cells over a few months. The treatment helps restore volume in the face, hands, and body for cellulite dimples and liposuction irregularities. Renuva comes in a pre-filled syringe much like Juvederm or Restylane, so it’s easy, feels like a filler, stimulates your own collagen, and results are immediate!
Downtime: None.
PDGF
PDGF uses platelet-derived growth factors to support skin regeneration, healing, collagen production, elasticity and overall skin quality. PDGF can be injected in the tear troughs, nasolabial folds and throughout the face to stimulate collagen and improve skin texture. It can also be applied topically during microneedling, RF microneedling and other laser treatments.
Downtime: Minimal. Every individual is different. Mild redness, swelling or sensitivity may occur for one to three days.
Kybella
Kybella is deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring acid in human and animal gut that is injected into the submentum (or double chin) to help dissolve fat and tighten skin. Kybella destroys fat cells and is administered in a series of injections at eight-week intervals. Results are gradual over time and you will see less fat and a more retracted, tighter jawline. The number of treatment sessions will vary based on the amount of fat in the jowls and under the chin. Results are permanent.
Downtime: Four-seven days of swelling.
