What Are Injectable Dermal Fillers?
Injectable dermal fillers (or simply fillers) are often injected to replace diminished facial volume. The face can lack volume for a variety of reasons, but age and significant weight loss are the leading causes. The process works by injecting a liquid (the dermal filler) beneath the skin to fill in the areas that appear sunken or hollow. Injectable fillers are an excellent, minimally invasive alternative for Littleton, CO individuals wanting to even out wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin in order to create a more youthful appearance. They can also be added to other aesthetic services to provide the benefits of a traditional facelift without going under the knife, the presence of scars, and the associated downtime that follows.
There are a variety of fillers that could help meet the requests and desires of each client. We prefer to use the well-known, durable, and cosmetically pleasing JUVÉDERM® and Revanesse Versa™ collections of injectable dermal fillers and YouthFull Lip Replenisher® by Revision Skincare® to augment the lips. To determine which injectable fillers are right for you, we encourage you to visit Skintastic Aesthetics in Littleton, CO where nurse practitioner Danielle Sanders can help you learn more. We carry the following formulas:
- JUVÉDERM ULTRA™ XC, ULTRA PLUS™ XC, and VOLLURE™ XC are various fillers that treat medium to deep wrinkles throughout the face, like nasolabial folds/smile lines, marionette lines, tear troughs (under-eyes), and glabellar/frown lines, as well as for lip volume. The results, on average, are visible for up to 9 – 12 months for ULTRA and ULTRA PLUS and about 12 – 18 months for VOLLURE.
- JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA™ XC and ULTRA™ XC are commonly used to soften vertical lines of the upper lip, redefine and contour the border of the lips, and enhance the volume of the upper or lower lip. The results typically are visible for up to nine months for ULTRA XC and for 12 months for VOLBELLA XC.
- JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC augments the contour of the cheeks, temples, and chin to treat volume lost with age in the mid-face and lower face. The results are long-lasting, anywhere from 18 – 24 months.
- JUVEDERM VOLUX™ XC is the newest and stoutest product exclusively approved by the FDA for definition and contouring of the jawline and chin. The estimated duration is 24 months.
- Revanesse Versa treats moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds.
- YouthFull Lip Replenisher employs a scientifically advanced formula to replenish youthful contours and plump lips.
How Do Dermal Fillers Work?
Prior to your procedure, Danielle will consult with you to learn more about your aesthetic goals and decide which product will best produce them. If JUVÉDERM or Revanesse Versa is selected, Danielle will apply numbing cream as a local anesthetic to minimize the discomfort of the injections. She will also use her experience to determine the amount of filler that is necessary and will slowly and gradually inject it through a very fine needle. Keeping the desired result in mind, either a portion or an entire syringe could be used during the procedure. If Danielle recommends YouthFull Lip Replenisher, the applicator glides on a high-shine formula of hyaluronic acid that immediately hydrates the lips to reduce creases around the lips and create a plumper pout.
What Are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?
For Littleton, CO individuals, injectable dermal fillers can address a number of needs and offer a number of benefits, such as:
- Boosting your confidence in your skin and total appearance
- Improving areas affected by sagging or fine lines
- Rejuvenating and adding volume to regions that are hollow or flat
- Adding facial fullness to attain your optimal face structure
For youthful lips, the formula we use from Revision Skincare provides the following perks for a plumper pout:
- Provides more youthful lip volume and contour while enhancing lip definition
- Boosts hydration and smooths lines and wrinkles
- Calms and soothes dry, dehydrated lips
- Restores natural, healthy-looking lip color
Skintastic Aesthetics Reviews
Danielle did an amazing job doing my lip filler this summer! She did a dental block with it that was included in the price and it was a relatively pain free experience. My lips look incredibly natural which is what I wanted. We looked in the mirror every step of the way to get the shape exactly how I had envisioned and I had no bruising and very minimal swelling that was gone after 2 days. Will be going back for sure!
I visited Skintastic 3 times for different services before writing a review. The first visit I had a consult, hydrafacial, and IV therapy (with B-12). The 2nd time I had PDO threads with PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin). The last visit I had microneedling and lip filler. I really love how Danielle answers each of my questions. She's so knowledgeable! She's also skilled and meticulous. And when it comes to my face, that means everything. Plus, their prices are competitive, worth every penny. I plan to buy a Club in January and my next appointment is already in my calendar. I highly recommend Skintastic.
I love this place! I will only come here for all my aesthetic and filler needs! Danielle and Jeff are amazing and they offer anything you could possibly think of to achieve your aesthetic goals!
Danielle & Jeff are absolute sweethearts. They are super fast to respond to emails, are very welcoming and seem very experienced and passionate about what they do. I came in for 1 syringe of lip filler. It was my first time ever but Danielle was very comforting and explained every single step during the procedure. She also does a full dental block to get you all number up so I didn’t feel a single thing once she did the filler itself. I am definitely a bit swollen today but even though I bruise easily, I have NO bruising at all because she took her time. I will add some pictures once I’m all healer up. :) Thank you Danielle & Jeff for making this a pleasant experience. 🌹
Danielle is amazing! She was recommended by a friend of mine for my first injection experience and am so happy with my results and all around experience at Skintastic Aesthetics. Danielle gave me a fantastic breakdown of services and what to expect to help gauge what would be best for me in my price range.
