Radiessie® Wrinkle Filler

Dr. Chow is well-versed in an array of fillers specialized for the face. These can be used to provide volume, whether for augmentation (such as the lips or bridge of the nose), restoring youthful contours (deep lines and wrinkles), or touching up depressed scars.

These include Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse, and Sculptra, among others. The loss of volume due to aging may result in deep creases forming along the nasolabial folds, which extend from either side of the nose to the corners of the mouth, then continue downward to form marionette lines as they frame the chin. For those desiring augmentation of features, such as the bridge of the nose or fuller lips, fillers may also provide a safe, simple alternative to surgery.

For long-lasting facial rejuvenation, "RADIESSE wrinkle filler's unique formulation stimulates collagenesis – the production of new collagen – which results in increased volume for natural looking wrinkle correction that may last a year or more in many patients."

Many lines and depressions on the face can be treated with minimally invasive fillers. There is no extended recovery time, and makeup can be reapplied before leaving the office. Some transient bruising may occur. To reduce the risk of such bruising, avoidance of aspirin, ibuprofen, alleve, and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications is recommended. In addition, natural supplements such as ginger, garlic, ginkobelova, and ginseng may increase your risk of bruising.
