The dermal fillers we use are not permanent, but do stimulate collagen over time, thereby changing your aging path starting with your first treatment. Various types of fillers are available; each is designed with one or several purposes, such as wrinkle reduction or lip augmentation.  Dr. Hadley King, lead dermatologist at SKINNEY Medspa, can determine which type of injections and what injectable filler treatments are right for you. Many of the natural fillers we use are composed of Hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally produced in our bodies. Some of the HA HYALURONIC ACID fillers we use include: Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus, Juvederm Voluma, and Belotero. Radiesse, a type of filler made of calcium hydroxyapatite, is generally used for more severe volume correction and lifting needs. Radiesse is a longer-lasting filler because the body forms collagen around the microspheres; adding bulk to the injected areas.

Our Botox/Dysport/Xeomin treatments are customized to preserve your expression, while minimizing wrinkles without “freezing” the face.*

Before your procedure avoid taken medication that thins the blood such as Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Aleve,Vitamin E, fish oil, ginger, gingko biloba, and green tea, for 7-10 days prior to treatment in order to reduce the risk of bruising.

The average length of the cosmetic injections of Dermal Fillers is about 15-45 minutes per session depending on the individual, goal of treatment, and the number of areas being treated.

Some of the most common side effects following treatment include, but are not limited to: bruising at injection site, numbness, and temporary redness, swelling, pain/tenderness, or discoloration. Cosmetic injections require very minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to work and their normal activities soon after treatment.¹*

The results from most dermal fillers are temporary, commonly lasting from a few months to about a year. The duration of the filler depends on the type of filler used, the goal of the treatment, and the area(s) injected. For optimal results, additional treatment sessions may be advised.*¹
