We also offer dermal fillers to help diminish facial lines and restore volume to the lower face. As we age, we lose fat and volume in the face making lines and folds more apparent. Dermal fillers such as Juvaderm and Restylane can be very helpful in softening the signs of aging and restoring volume to the face. They can be injected into the nasolabial folds, marionette lines, lines around the mouth, and lips. Results are seen immediately but improve over a matter of days, and can last up to 12 months or more. These fillers can be a minimally invasive option for those who desire a more youthful look or who are considering facial surgery.
In order to reduce side effects and achieve the best possible results from your injections, please read and follow these instructions.
Do not consume alcohol for 24 hours prior since this may thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising
Avoid taking Aspirin, anti-inflammatory medications, and blood thinners if possible for two weeks prior to injections. Keep in mind that natural supplements such as Fish Oil, St. John’s Wort, Vitamin E, and Ginko Biloba have blood thinning effects and contribute to bruising
Schedule your appointment at least two weeks before an important event, as bruising is always a possibility
Postpone your injections if you have an active cold sore on your face
Do not lie down for four hours after receiving Botox or Dysport and do not exercise for six hours afterwards. This will allow the product to stay in the intended muscles and not drift elsewhere
NONE of the injectables should be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding
