Advanced Facial Fillers
There are many different types of facial fillers. The most advanced products are Juvederm, Radiesse, Restylane, and Perlane. Each product has its own unique qualities to enhance structure, create volume and improve texture of the skin. Dr. Eviatar is a specialist and physician trainer for each of these products and uses each one as a tool to contour, lift, and correct wrinkles, folds, and sagging areas of the face.
ArteFill is known as the “permanent” filler and although it is a great product, it should only be used for very specific treatments as these treatments are not reversible.
Sculptra is often mistaken as a facial filler, but it is actually a very different kind of product. Sculptra actually creates collagen naturally in deep layers under the skin. Therefore it can be used more for creating overall structure and support for those with more severe volume loss.
The important key to successful filler injections is finding an injector who is known for their technique and is familiar with all the different products. Also, make sure your doctor looks at your overall face and doesn’t just zero in on a problem area. Often the key to the most natural youthful look is overall balance and composition. Therefore each face should be treated individually and each treatment should be customized for overall improvement and not just wrinkle correction.
