Radiesse
Radiesse® is a safe, long-lasting dermal filler that corrects facial lines and wrinkles. This next-generation cosmetic filler is used to treat the nasolabial folds and wrinkles around the nose and mouth and lasts up to two years vs. previous fillers that lasted an average of only 6 months. Besides being longer lasting, Radiesse inserts smoother than earlier fillers, another benefit because it is more pliable and therefore nets a more realistic result than some other fillers. Made of unique calcium-based microspheres that are suspended in a natural gel that is injected into the skin, no allergy testing is required. FDA-approved, Radiesse is safe, cost effective and a convenient way to make an immediate improvement to your face without the downtime of some procedures.

Sculptra
Sculptra® is an injectable product that restores and corrects the signs of facial fat loss that come with aging. This injectable poly-L-lactic acid is approved by U.S. FDA and used outside the United States since 1999 in over 150,000 patients. Because it's not made from human or animal sources, Sculptra does not require a skin test and is biocompatible (does not harm the body) and biodegradable (able to be broken down by the body)-made of the same material that has been widely used for many years in surgical products. The effects of Sculptra are not immediate, but instead profide a graduale increase in skin thickness. At the same time, the results of Sculptra are long lasting, shown in one clinical study to last for up to 2 years after the first treatment session. Simple touch-up treatments may be needed to maintain the desired effects.
