Before & After
Why Choose Dermal Fillers?
Just about everyone wishes they could discover the fountain of youth. While the passage of time is inevitable, factors like sun exposure, gravity, repeated facial expressions, and genetics can accelerate visible signs of aging. Fortunately, modern dermal fillers provide a convenient and effective way to restore volume, soften wrinkles, and enhance facial features. Though results are temporary and maintenance injections may be needed, the dramatic and natural-looking effects make them worthwhile for many.

Juvederm®
- Juvederm XC®
- An extremely popular choice for facial enhancement, Juvederm XC ® is a hyaluronic acid wrinkle filler. Taking the form of a smooth gel, this filler also incorporates lidocaine to make treatment itself much more comfortable. Juvederm® is ideal for addressing lines surrounding the mouth and nose and also for plumping the lips. It is possible to achieve results that last from multiple months to well over a year. Recent research has suggested that repeat treatments of fillers such as Juvederm® may actually prompt the body to produce more of its own natural collagen, an added benefit sure to please patients of every age.
- Juvederm VOLBELLA® XC
- This advanced injectable gel can give you natural-looking results for up to one year. Juvederm Volbella ® XC adds subtle volume to the lips, and it also works to soften the appearance of vertical lip lines (also known as perioral lines) that can be caused by exposure to the sun, repeated muscle movements or other factors. A great choice for increasing lip fullness and diminishing lip lines without looking like you’ve had work done.
- Juvederm Voluma®
- Another member of the hyaluronic acid family of facial fillers, Juvederm Voluma® is designed to add tissue volume to facial areas that have sunken or become hollow due to aging or substantial weight loss. This injectable filler brings renewed volume to areas including the chin, cheeks and cheekbones themselves. A unique feature of Juvederm Voluma® is its ability to expand after injection, restoring facial contours that have grown less pronounced over time.
- Injections of this particular filler tend to last roughly 18 months, but in some cases, as long as two full years. With a typical injection procedure lasting between 15 and 30 minutes, use of this filler can provide dramatic results while remaining extremely convenient and cost-effective.

Radiesse®
Radiesse® is a temporary facial filler with the ability to rapidly rejuvenate areas of the face suffering from diminished tissue volume and elasticity. Comprised of calcium-based microspheres, it helps fill unsightly folds and wrinkles in the face, while boosting the body’s production of collagen for months.
The positive effects of Radiesse® injections are noticeable immediately and have impressive longevity, often upwards of a full year. Side effects of this treatment are rare, but when they do occur, they are very mild and short-lived.
Lip Injections
Restylane®
Restylane® is a trusted hyaluronic acid filler known for its ability to treat wrinkles, add volume, and sculpt facial contours. It offers a range of products tailored for different areas:
- Restylane-L®: Addresses facial folds and enhances the lips.
- Restylane Lyft®: Adds volume to cheeks, mid-face, and hands for a fuller appearance.
- Restylane Silk®: Ideal for subtle lip enhancement and smoothing fine lines around the mouth.
- Restylane Refyne® and Defyne®: Designed to treat deeper facial lines while preserving natural facial expressions.
Revanesse® Versa™
Versa® is a hyaluronic acid filler used to soften lines and wrinkles while adding volume to facial areas like the lips, cheeks, and nasolabial folds. It is known for its smooth consistency and minimal swelling after treatment, with results lasting up to a year.
RHA® Collection – RHA®4
RHA®4 is part of the Resilient Hyaluronic Acid filler collection designed to adapt to facial dynamics and movements. It is perfect for treating deeper lines, restoring volume to areas like the cheeks, and achieving a natural-looking enhancement while maintaining facial flexibility. RHA®4 offers long-lasting results, with effects visible for up to 15 months.
Sculptra® Aesthetic
Sculptra® works differently from traditional fillers by gradually stimulating collagen growth to restore facial volume over time. It is ideal for treating hollow areas and deeper facial folds, with results that improve over several months and last up to two years.
Belotero Balance®
Belotero Balance® is a lightweight hyaluronic acid filler that integrates seamlessly into the skin for subtle treatment of fine lines, such as vertical lip lines and under-eye wrinkles.
Autologous fat transfer / microlipoinjection
If you are interested in regaining a youthful facial appearance but are reluctant to undergo a facelift or other surgical procedure, another worthwhile option to consider is that of facial fat injections. Also known as autologous fat transfer or microlipoinjection, this is a procedure in which your own fat is taken from another area of the body and injected into facial areas in need of added volume. Excess fat taken from the thighs, abdomen or buttocks can be used in this way to provide contouring to the chin, cheeks and even the lips. This process can be perfect for patients who may be allergic to, or particularly sensitive to, traditional filler products, but desire the results they can produce.
Why choose dermal fillers?
Everyone deserves to look as young and vital as they truly feel, and by choosing injectable dermal fillers such as those described above, that goal is within easy reach. Facial fillers offer a convenient and effective way to achieve dramatic results without the high cost, risk of complications and potentially lengthy recovery time of a traditional facelift. Though it is certainly true that the results produced by dermal fillers are temporary in nature and maintenance injections will be necessary, their transformational effects make them worthwhile to so many.
If lines, wrinkles, folds and hollows in your face have begun to take a toll on your self-confidence, you owe it to yourself to take action. Dr. Preminger is committed to working collaboratively with each patient to determine which type of dermal filler best suits their needs and aesthetic objectives.
