Injectable Fillers (Restylane and Juvderm)

Serving Albuquerque & Santa Fe, New Mexico

Do you have hollows under your eyes, giving you a tired appearance? Are your lips thin, making your face look harsh or severe? Do you have deep lines on either side of your mouth, what are sometimes called parenthesis or smile lines? Despite their name, they rarely make anyone smile, and neither do any of these common signs of aging.

But now there is a non-invasive treatment option that can turn back the clock on these changes in your face. The injectable fillers Restylane and Juvderm can give you long-lasting correction for all the common signs of aging by filling in where your tissue has diminished or displaced with aging. They are both what is known as non-animal hyaluronic acid (NAHA). Hyaluronic acid is a compound naturally found in the skin, and other places in the body such as the vitreous humor and spinal fluid. Because they are not derived from animal tissue, there is no need for animal testing before use.

The only common side effect of Restylane and Juvderm use is minor swelling at the site of injection, which can last for several days following Restylane injections, shorter for Juvderm injections.

The effects of these injectable fillers can last for up to six months, depending on where they are used. They are an excellent complement to BOTOX® injections, which treat a different kind of wrinkle. If you would like to learn more about these or any other cosmetic procedure, schedule an injectable filler consultation with Michael S. Hopkins, M.D. today.
