Dermal Fillers Orange County

At Revive Aesthetics OC, we offer Dermal Fillers to help smooth wrinkles and folds in the face, as well as adding volume to areas of the face that have lost it over time. Dermal fillers are minimally-invasive treatments that use hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite (a naturally occurring substance found in bones) to temporarily restore lost volume for a natural-looking lift. The results are subtle, but long-lasting; depending on the filler used, results can last up to two years. Dermal fillers can be used to improve the appearance of wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth, as well as define lips or add volume to cheeks. Our experienced professionals will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan based on your individual needs and desired results.

Understanding dermal fillers

Dermal fillers come in various forms, each designed to address specific concerns and provide unique benefits.

• Hyaluronic acid-based fillers, such as Juvéderm and Restylane, which offer natural-looking results and can treat a wide range of issues. These fillers consist of a naturally occurring substance found in the body and work by attracting and retaining moisture, resulting in a plumper and more youthful appearance.

• Calcium hydroxylapatite fillers, like Radiesse, which stimulate collagen production and provide longer-lasting results.

• Poly-L-lactic acid fillers, such as Sculptra, which gradually stimulate collagen production over time and can improve the appearance of deep wrinkles and facial appearance volume loss.

In addition to hyaluronic acid fillers, there are other injectable options available, such as Radiesse and Sculptra. Radiesse, a combination of microspheres and gel composed of calcium and water, encourages collagen production underneath the skin to fill out wrinkles and indentations. Sculptra, on the other hand, contains poly-L-lactic acid and works by stimulating natural collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

We will help you determine which type of dermal filler is best suited to address your specific concerns and achieve your desired results.

Hyaluronic acid-based fillers

Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm and Restylane, have gained popularity for their ability to address a wide range of facial concerns. They take less than an hour and can smooth fine lines, diminish wrinkles, and restore volume loss in areas like the cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds. With a variety of products available within the Juvéderm and Restylane families, these fillers can be tailored to your specific needs and provide natural-looking results that last anywhere from several months to up to two years.

Juvéderm, for example, offers a range of products designed to target specific facial concerns. Juvéderm VOLLURE® is used to treat nasolabial folds, while Juvéderm VOLUMA® XC is specifically designed to address volume loss in the mid-face. Restylane, on the other hand, offers products like Restylane Lyft for cheek augmentation and Restylane Refyne and Defyne for smoothing nasolabial folds and marionette lines while preserving natural facial expressions.

Other types of injectable fillers

If you’re looking for alternative injectable filler options, Radiesse and Sculptra offer unique benefits that cater to different needs. Radiesse works by stimulating the production of collagen beneath the skin's surface, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The effects of Radiesse can last up to a year, making it an appealing choice for those seeking longer-lasting results.

Sculptra, on the other hand, offers a gradual approach to facial rejuvenation. Its poly-L-lactic acid formula stimulates natural collagen production, reducing the appearance of facial lines, such as smile lines and chin wrinkles, as well as severe facial wrinkles, over time. With a series of three injections administered over several months, Sculptra’s effects can last up to two years, providing a long-lasting solution for those seeking a more subtle and natural-looking rejuvenation.

Addressing common facial concerns with dermal fillers

Dermal fillers can effectively address common facial concerns, providing a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance without the need for invasive procedures. Some benefits of dermal fillers include:

• Enhancing lips

• Restoring volume to cheeks

• Improving facial contour

• Creating a more harmonious balance between facial features

The versatility of different dermal fillers makes them an ideal solution for those seeking a non-surgical approach to facial skin rejuvenation.

We can develop a customized treatment plan that targets your concerns and yields the best possible results. Whether you’re looking to enhance your lips, smooth fine lines, or add volume to your cheeks, dermal fillers can provide the solution you’ve been searching for.

Enhancing Lips

Lip enhancement is a popular application for dermal fillers, providing a natural-looking solution to thin lips and vertical lip lines around the mouth. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvéderm and Restylane are particularly effective in this area, offering a customizable approach to lip augmentation. By adding volume, definition, and smoothing fine lines, these fillers can help you achieve the perfect pout you’ve always desired.

The duration of lip filler results can vary depending on the specific product used, with effects generally lasting between three to nine months and, in some cases, up to 18 months. Touch-up treatments can be scheduled as needed to maintain your desired lip volume and appearance. We will work with you to determine the best lip fillers option and treatment schedule to suit your individual needs and preferences.

Restoring volume to cheeks

Loss of volume in the cheeks can contribute to an aged and tired appearance, but dermal fillers can provide a solution to restore fullness and create a more youthful contour. Juvéderm Voluma XC and Restylane Lyft are specifically designed to address volume loss in the mid-face, providing natural-looking results that can last up to two years.

By adding volume to sunken areas and enhancing the overall facial contour, these fillers can help you achieve a more youthful and refreshed look.

Combining fillers with other treatments

Dermal fillers can be combined with other non-surgical treatments, such as Botox, chemical peels, or laser treatments, for a comprehensive rejuvenation plan. By addressing a wider range of concerns and targeting different aspects of signs of aging, combining treatments can provide a more natural and balanced outcome. In some cases, this approach may also reduce the amount of filler necessary to achieve the desired result, providing a more cost-effective solution.

It’s essential to during the initial consultation with our providers, that you are aware of any potential risks or side effects associated with combining dermal fillers with another cosmetic surgery. Our team of plastic surgeons will thoroughly assess your specific concerns and recommend the most suitable combination of treatments to achieve the best possible results while minimizing any potential complications.

Longevity and maintenance

The longevity of dermal fillers varies greatly depending on the type of filler used, the area treated, and the individual’s lifestyle. Generally, dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, with some products providing even longer-lasting results. Touch-up treatments can be scheduled as needed to maintain your desired appearance and ensure consistent results over time.

In addition to touch-up treatments, proper skincare plays a crucial role in maintaining the effects of dermal filler treatments. Utilizing medical-grade skincare products in conjunction with your dermal filler treatment can help to sustain the appearance of youthful, full skin.
