We all have to get older, so why not do all we can to age gracefully? Facial volume loss can make you feel much older than you really are – but luckily, treating it doesn’t have to be a struggle. RADIESSE® and Sculptra® are two awesome options for improving your look and giving your skin the plumpness it deserves. These dermal filler treatments can be administered here at Emerald Aesthetics in only a few minutes and give you months (if not years) of beautiful skin. Get in touch with Kirin today to learn more.
What Causes Facial Volume Loss?
Facial volume loss starts getting serious when you enter your 30s. Around that time, collagen production gradually declines. Collagen loss eventually leads to a decrease in facial and lip plumpness. Your cheeks begin to be less pronounced, your lips become thinner, and wrinkles become more apparent as your skin begins to sag. These concerns are purely cosmetic but can make you unhappy with your appearance.
How Is Facial Volume Loss Addressed?
Dermal fillers are a no-stress option for improving your skin. These injections can be done quickly and don’t require downtime afterward. RADIESSE® is made from calcium-based microspheres that help reconstruct the skin by stimulating collagen production, ultimately providing the longest-lasting results. Sculptra® is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and adds volume to your face and body by stimulating natural collagen production, creating a soft, more youthful appearance.
What Can I Expect?
The right filler for you depends on your particular needs. RADIESSE® lasts an average of 18-24 months, while Sculptra® lasts 2-7 years. Kirin will discuss the benefits of each during your initial consultation. The main takeaway from these treatments is that they aren’t like surgery – they don’t require weeks of bedrest, but they’re also not permanent, so touch-up treatments may be needed.
