JUVEDERM®

Juvederm® is a smooth consistency gel that helps to add volume and hydration to your skin. Juvederm® instantly restores your skin's volume and smoothes away facial wrinkles and folds, like the “smile lines” or “parentheses” (nasolabial folds—the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth). Results can last up to 1 year.

VOLUMA®

Over time, the cheeks flatten, and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by a natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. Juvederm Voluma® XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin’s surface to lift and contour the cheek area. Juvederm Voluma® XC adds volume to correct age-related volume loss in the cheeks to help create a more youthful appearance.

RESTYLANE®

Restylane® is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. It also works well for lip augmentation. Results last for about 6 months.
