Revitalize Your Appearance: Explore Injectable Solutions for Fine Lines and Wrinkles
If you believe fine lines and wrinkles can only be treated with plastic surgery, think again! At the California Skin and Laser Center of Stockton and Lodi, patients have a wide selection of cosmetic injectables to choose from when addressing imperfections on the face. Dr. Bock has been injecting fillers for years, starting with “collagen” in the 1970’s, and has trained with multiple world famous injectors.
Both men and women find our injectable services to be exactly what they need to smooth away wrinkles and restore a more youthful appearance. We offer a variety of injectables, including hyaluronic acid fillers and various RHA collections to meet your needs. Let’s look closely at each to understand better how cosmetic injections work.
What are hyaluronic acid dermal fillers?
Hyaluronic acid fillers. Dermal fillers are injection treatments that reduce wrinkles, restore volume, and create subtle enhancements. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural substance of the skin crucial in maintaining hydration, volume, and elasticity. As we age, the levels of HA decrease, resulting in a loss of skin volume and a higher risk of developing wrinkles and folds.
Dermal Fillers at California Skin & Laser Center explained by Dr. Gerald Bock
What are Dermal Fillers?
There is a vast variety of Dermal Fillers made available, California Skin & Laser Center uses only a selected few of these as there is an overlap in various fillers.
Why do we need Dermal Fillers?
As we age, we tend to lose volume in our face. We also experience hollows in our face, which leads to skin sagging. Dermal fillers help us to replace this volume in the face, which will improve the appearance of hollowness and also help correct skin sagging.
What are the Dermal Fillers used at your office?
In our office, we use the following Dermal fillers.
- Restylane
- Restylane Lyft
- Juvederm (Juvederm Ultra Plus)
- Voluma
- Radiesse
Restylane by Galderma is a brand of dermal fillers that utilizes clear gel formulations of hyaluronic acid (HA). It was the first non-animal-stabilized hyaluronic acid filler designed to closely mimic the body’s hyaluronic acid with minimal cross-linking. It became the first filler approved by the U.S. FDA. The Restylane portfolio has been used in over 65 million treatments worldwide.
What is Voluma by Allergan?
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC injectable gel is for deep injection in the cheek area to correct age-related volume loss and for augmentation of the chin region to improve the chin profile in adults over 21.
JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC injectable gels are designed to be injected into facial tissue to effectively smooth out moderate to severe wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds.
JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC is an injectable gel intended for lip augmentation in adults over 21 years old, specifically for injection into the lips and perioral area. It features a unique combination of dynamic strength and stretch.
What are the different types of RHA fillers, and how do they address specific facial concerns?
RHA Redensity is a specially formulated filler designed to address moderate to severe dynamic wrinkles around the mouth. It is the first and only FDA-approved filler that works effectively in both the superficial and deep layers of the dermis. This product is ideal for patients seeking correction with a filler placed closer to the skin’s surface, allowing for a natural appearance without any heavy or undesirable effects.
RHA 2– This treatment gently enhances dynamic contours and addresses moderate to significant volume loss. It is ideal for individuals looking to correct areas like nasolabial folds, achieving a natural and softened appearance.
RHA 3—Dynamic volume enhances the lips and addresses wrinkles and folds around them. This treatment may be ideal for patients seeking to increase the fullness and shape of their lips, correct issues such as oral commissures and marionette lines, or achieve a natural look with a moderately robust filler.
RHA 4- Provides natural volume for moderate to severe dynamic folds and deeper deficits. It may be suitable for patients seeking correction with a deeper-placed filler while desiring a natural look and enhanced volume without visible ridges.
