Dermal Fillers

How do dermal fillers rejuvenate my appearance?

Dermal fillers temporarily reverse age-related changes in your appearance by restoring volume, boosting moisture, and improving collagen production. Dr. Zarcone injects fillers under your lines and wrinkles and in strategic areas of your face to counteract age-related changes. As a result, dermal fillers:

• Smooth away lines and wrinkles
• Restore volume in your cheeks and temples
• Reduce wrinkles and firm the back of your hand
• Diminish vertical lip lines (smoker’s lines)
• Augment and plump up your lips
• Lift your cheeks

Dr. Zarcone offers several brands of dermal fillers so he can customize your treatment to enhance your appearance.

What types of dermal fillers might I receive?

Here’s a quick rundown of several fillers Dr. Zarcone may use to achieve your cosmetic goals:

Juvéderm

Juvéderm includes a large group of dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid in a gel base. Your skin naturally produces hyaluronic acid, where it’s essential for hydration. Each Juvéderm product targets a specific problem area, including moderate to severe wrinkles around your nose and mouth, adding volume to and lifting cheeks, enhancing your lips, and rejuvenating your hands. 

Belotero®

Belotero also consists of hyaluronic acid that’s thin enough to integrate into your skin and produce subtle results. Dr. Zarcone uses Belotero to treat problems such as vertical lip lines.

Radiesse®

Radiesse contains tiny spheres of calcium that immediately add volume and stimulate collagen production. Your body gradually absorbs the calcium, but the collagen remains to enhance your appearance.

Dr. Zarcone often recommends Radiesse to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, especially the nasolabial folds that run from the corner of your nose to the corner of your mouth. This filler is also a good choice for correcting age-related volume loss on the back of your hands.

Restylane®

Restylane also includes a group of dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid. Like Juvéderm, different Restylane formulas are designed for diminishing wrinkles, restoring volume, and enhancing your lips and hands.

How long will my results last with a dermal filler?

Dermal fillers produce immediate results. Over time, your results slowly and naturally fade away, but they’re long-lasting. Depending on the filler you use, your results last 6-18 months. A few fillers can last up to two years.
