Filler restoration is used for different effects and purposes ranging from eliminating fine lines and wrinkles to enhancing facial contours. Dr. Goldhar refers to filler treatments as cosmetic sculpting under the skin. The results are highly dependent on the skill and experience of the injector.
Genetics, aging, weight loss and illness can result in a decrease in deeper supporting tissues. This loss in volume results in wrinkles, concavities and sagging of the skin. The new generation of non-animal sourced, hyaluronic fillers can provide a safe, long lasting, rapid solution at a very reasonable cost.
Injectables or fillers used by CosMedix MD are Restylane®, Perlane®, Juvederm, and Teosyal which are forms of hyaluronic acid, a natural component of skin. Since these fillers are non-animal derived they are free from viruses, non-antigenic, long lasting, stable, are natural looking and require no skin tests as allergic reactions are rare. Sculptra™ is a unique ‘filler’ that is somewhat different from traditional fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm. It is composed of microscopic poly-L-lactic acid particles that stimulate our body to form its own new collagen. In many cases fillers are used in conjunction with Botox® to better enhance your appearance.
