How We’re Injecting Confidence with Dermal Fillers
December 2, 2024
Our bodies produce less collagen and elastinevery year. While collagen proteins act as your skin’s building blocks and provide its structure, elastin fibers give it the ability to stretch.
As both of these natural resources decrease, your skin loses its firmness as its internal framework weakens, leaving you with wrinkles, sagging skin, and “sunken” features. That’s why we lose our “baby face” in our 20s—exactly when this decline begins.
At Restoration MedSpa, our skilled injectors have spent decades mastering the balance of science and artistry to restore your features to their full, youthful appearance. We use dermal fillers for so much more than plumping your lips; we use them to enhance your skin—and confidence—everywhere. And no, fillers aren’t just for anti-aging. Here, they’re for everyone.
Here’s a closer look at all of the ways we use dermal filler in Greensboro, NC.
What is dermal filler?
First, let’s break down exactly what fillers are and how they work. There are different kinds of fillers, but all of them add volume to your features and smooth fine lines.
At Restoration MedSpa, we offer 7 top-of-the-line formulas from Juvederm—the #1 filler collection in the country. These formulas use hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally produced substance that keeps your skin soft and joints lubricated.
We also offer Sculptra, a “biostimulating” filler that works by gradually ramping up your long-term body’s collagen production for improvements from within rather than adding external volume.
Beyond fillers, we also offer other injectables, including:
AquaGold: A treatment that stimulates skin repair and delivers “micro-injections.”
Kybella: A solution for stubborn fat pockets (including the dreaded “double chin”).
SKINVIVE: A skincare-focused, ultra-hydrating formula.
Fillers vs. Botox
Botox is another popular aesthetic injectable for good reason! That being said, it works differently than fillers and provides different results—although you can combine them.
While fillers work to restore volume, Botox works to stop wrinkles in their tracks. Every time we smile, talk, or chew, those facial expressions create and deepen marks and folds in our skin. As we lose collagen and elastin, our skin can’t “bounce” back like it once did, leaving us with wrinkles.
Botox limits the muscle movements responsible for those wrinkles, smoothing and preventing them. While you’ll see immediate results from dermal filler in Greensboro, NC, Botox takes more time—about 10 days—to take full effect, as the formula has to bind with your nerve endings.
At Restoration MedSpa, we don’t just use Botox for anti-aging, but also to stop excessive sweating, TMJ pain, and so much more!
