Fillers
Do You Offer Any Other Injectable Treatments?
Yes, in addition to Botox, Dr. Paulo A. Escobar offers his patients the Juvéderm family of fillers to address their anti-aging needs.
Dermal fillers are among the top requested nonsurgical procedures each year thanks to their versatility and natural-looking results. Using an array of varying formulations that are optimized for different regions of the face, Juvéderm fillers can help to restore aging concerns such as facial volume loss, fine lines and wrinkles and thin or aging lips without the need for invasive surgery.
How
does Juvéderm work?
Juvéderm products are formulated with a combination of hyaluronic acid (HA) and lidocaine. HA is a naturally-occurring molecule found in the skin that retains its moisture, keeping it looking supple and youthful. Lidocaine is a localized numbing agent that works to minimize any discomfort experienced during your injections.
As your skin ages, HA begins to dissipate, resulting in facial sagging and wrinkles over time. Juvéderm products offer direct delivery of HA into the skin to restore youth and hydration to your complexion. The HA molecules are capable of holding up to 1000 times their weight in water and expand as the hydrate, restoring volume to the face or lips.
