The A to Z on Facial Fillers

Fillers are rapidly becoming the gold standard as a solution to treat a variety of concerns.  While the face remains the most common area for filler treatments, there are additional filler treatments that are more suited for other areas of the body, as well.  Given the advancement of science and technology, let's explore several of the more popular filler treatments below. best filler for cheeks


Sculptra:  Sculptra is an amazing cheek filler. Sculptra is an injectable biostimulator that binds to your own collagen producing cells and wakes them up to start producing collagen.  Sculptra rebuilds the inner structure of the skin over time to replenish lost volume. It continues to be a natural choice for many when it comes to smoothing out facial areas. Unlike hyaluronic fillers that provide instant results, Sculptra renders results gradually and works by stimulating the natural production of collagen.  The results from Sculptra often last over two years.  Multiple sessions may be needed.  Temporary swelling and bruising can occur.  Downtime:  None.

Juvederm:  Juvederm is a collection of hyaluronic acid fillers, which include Juvederm Volbella, Vollure, Voluma, Ultra and Ultra Plus. Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in our bodies and helps deliver nutrients to the skin, retain moisture and softness and adds volume. Juvederm is used on different areas of the face to lift cheeks, smooth parentheses lines, plump the lips and augment different parts of the face. It can also be used to improve scarring. Results can last anywhere from 6-16 months depending on which product is used. Temporary swelling and bruising can occur. Downtime: None.

Radiesse:  Radiesse has filler and biostimulating properties. It volumizes immediately and then also works to stimulate your body’s collagen over time. It is a denser filler that can be used for cheek, jawline, NSL fold, chin and hand augmentation. That’s right! Radiesse is one of the only FDA approved product for hand rejuvenation. It helps minimize the appearance of bony and vascular structures of the back of the hands. Results have been shown to last a year or more, making treatment both immediate and long lasting. Mild swelling and bruising may occur.  Downtime: None

Restylane:   Similar to Juvederm, Restylane also contains hyaluronic acid. Lyft, Defyne, Refyne and Restylane are used on different areas of the face to lift cheeks, smooth parentheses lines, plump the lips and augment different parts of the face, as well as the hands. Restylane can also be used to minimize scarring. Results can last from 6-12 months, depending on which product is used. Temporary swelling and bruising can occur. Downtime: None.
