Dermal Fillers in Scottsdale, AZ
Dermal Fillers are cosmetic treatments that enhance facial contours, smooth wrinkles, and restore volume to the face. Fillers are made from substances compatible with the body, such as hyaluronic acid, and are designed to add fullness to areas of lost volume. Dermal fillers are ideal for those wishing to reduce the appearance of fine lines, enhance lips, contour the face, and rejuvenate the overall facial aesthetic. Results from dermal fillers are visible directly after the treatment, offering a noticeable yet natural enhancement. The longevity of the results varies depending on the type of filler used, but generally, they can last from several months to a couple of years.
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that replenish facial volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. At Source of Health in Scottsdale, AZ, we offer a range of dermal fillers, including Juvéderm, Restylane, and Radiesse, each with unique properties and benefits. Juvéderm, known for its smooth consistency, is primarily made of hyaluronic acid and is effective for reducing moderate to severe facial lines and wrinkles, especially around the nose and mouth, and for lip augmentation. Restylane, also hyaluronic acid-based, is excellent for fine lines and wrinkles and is particularly useful for under-eye hollows and enhancing lip volume. Radiesse, on the other hand, is made from calcium hydroxylapatite and is ideal for deeper wrinkles and folds, adding volume to areas like the cheeks and jawline. The choice of filler will depend on the specific areas of concern, the desired outcome, and individual skin characteristics.
How do Dermal Fillers Work?
Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers like Juvéderm and Restylane offer immediate aesthetic improvements by restoring lost volume and smoothing away lines and wrinkles. Their key component, hyaluronic acid, attracts and retains moisture, providing hydration and natural plumpness to the skin, making them ideal for addressing superficial lines and subtle enhancements. In contrast, biostimulating injectables such as Sculptra, Radiesse, and PRP EZ Gel focus on long-term skin rejuvenation. Sculptra, with poly-L-lactic acid, and Radiesse, containing calcium-based microspheres, stimulate the body’s natural collagen production over time. This approach is more suitable for deeper lines and more pronounced contouring results. PRP EZ Gel, derived from the patient’s own blood, harnesses growth factors to promote tissue rejuvenation and further collagen production.
