At the Aesthetic Arts Institute of Plastic Surgery, we offer several injectable options to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Since these products work in different ways, our team will recommend the treatment best suited to your anatomy, concerns, and aesthetic goals.
- Radiesse: Restores lost volume while also helping your body produce more of its own collagen.
- Renuva: Works with your body to gradually replace its adipose-derived matrix with your own fat, providing another option for restoring lost volume.
- Restylane: A family of hyaluronic acid fillers used to smooth facial wrinkles and folds, restore volume, and enhance facial features.
- Restylane Kysse: Designed specifically for the lips to add fullness, improve definition, and soften lines around the mouth.
- RHA Collection: Resilient hyaluronic acid fillers made to accommodate facial movement while softening lines and restoring volume.
- Lipoderma: Uses donated human adipose tissue to replace lost fat and restore soft-tissue volume without requiring fat harvesting.
Radiesse
Radiesse restores volume using calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. The gel provides correction after treatment, while the CaHA microspheres help stimulate new collagen production in the area. As the gel is absorbed, the collagen your body produces can continue to provide support.
Radiesse can be useful for patients experiencing age-related volume loss or reduced facial definition and may be used to improve areas such as the lower face and jawline depending on the patient’s needs.
Renuva
Renuva works differently from a traditional hyaluronic acid filler. It is made from an adipose-derived extracellular matrix that serves as a framework for new fat growth. After treatment, the matrix is gradually replaced by your own fat. Renuva can be useful for restoring age-related volume loss or improving smaller contour irregularities, and there is no need to harvest fat with liposuction. For patients who want another option beyond conventional fillers or a fat transfer procedure, Renuva may be worth considering.
Restylane
Restylane is a collection of hyaluronic acid fillers, with different options available depending on where you want to add volume or smooth visible lines. Some are softer and more flexible, while others provide more structure. This range gives our team the ability to choose a Restylane product based on the area being treated and the type of change you want to see.
Restylane may be used in areas such as the cheeks, lips, around the mouth, and other areas affected by age-related volume loss. Hyaluronic acid also attracts and retains moisture, helping treated areas appear smoother and fuller while maintaining a natural look and feel.
Restylane Kysse
Restylane Kysse was created specifically for the lips and lines around the mouth. This hyaluronic acid filler can add volume, improve lip definition, or replace fullness that has gradually been lost with age. Its formulation also allows the lips to move naturally when talking, smiling, and making other expressions.
Your treatment can be customized to subtly restore volume that has diminished with age, create greater lip definition, or enhance naturally thin lips. Rather than approaching every patient with the same desired lip shape or size, our team considers your existing proportions and facial features when determining how much product to use and where it should be placed.
RHA Collection
RHA fillers are made to move with the face. Instead of treating facial movement as something to work against, the resilient hyaluronic acid is formulated to accommodate expressions such as smiling and talking. The collection includes several formulations, giving our team options for treating different types and depths of facial lines and areas of volume loss. This flexibility can be particularly useful in parts of the face that are almost constantly in motion.
RHA may be an option for patients who want to soften wrinkles or restore facial volume while maintaining natural movement and expression in the treated areas.
Lipoderma
Lipoderma is a ready-to-use human adipose tissue allograft designed to replace lost fat and restore soft-tissue volume. Derived from donated human adipose tissue, it preserves components of natural fat tissue and provides an alternative to traditional hyaluronic acid fillers and autologous fat grafting.
Lipoderma can be used in areas affected by facial volume loss, including the cheeks, temples, under-eye area, chin, jawline, and folds around the mouth. Since the tissue is ready to use, patients do not need to undergo liposuction or have sufficient donor fat available elsewhere on the body for treatment.
