Dermal Fillers

As we age our skin loses collagen, hyaluronic acid, and fat, which results in the face having more laxity, wrinkles, loss of volume in the cheeks and increased volume in the jaw area. Dermal fillers are used to correct the moderate to severe facial wrinkles caused by natural aging and contour the face.

Most dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid. The use of dermal fillers in cheeks, nasolabial folds, fine lines and marionette lines can improve the appearance of the face for a more rested and youthful appearance. Fillers can also be used to provide fullness to thinning lips, the jawline, and chin. In addition to hyaluronic acid fillers, Rejuveme offers Sculptra which is a collagen stimulator.
