Have you wondered whether or not dermal fillers, injectables or lip injections are right for you? At Laser & Cosmetic Associates of Boulder, we use facial fillers for a number of skin concerns.
As we grow older, our skin naturally loses volume. This soft-tissue loss and degeneration can lead to many of a number of common signs of aging, which can be quickly, safely, and successfully treated with dermal fillers and lip injections in our Boulder Valley office.
What are my filler options in Boulder?
So what concerns do dermal fillers address? This nonsurgical approach reduces visible signs of facial aging, primarily caused by loss of collagen, breakdown of elastin and hyaluronic acid and facial fat shifts, such as:
- Forehead wrinkles
- Bunny lines — the wrinkles and fine lines that appear on the sides of your nose.
- “11s” — the lines that form in between your eyebrows, also known as movement or frown lines that form when you frown.
- Under-eye grooves
- Thin or wrinkled lips
- Hollow and deflated cheeks
- Sagging cheeks and jowls
Lip Injections in Boulder
For our Boulder Valley residents looking to enhance and reshape their lips, lip injections can change the size of their lips and improve how their lips look in proportion to surrounding facial features, while still staying appropriate and natural in appearance. Various dermal fillers can be used to add volume to the lips. During your consultation with us, we will advise on the best options for you.
How do injectables work?
These dermal fillers work below the skin’s surface, helping to restore volume in the cheeks, lifting the skin, filling in wrinkles and grooves, and creating a smoother, tighter skin surface.
How long do fillers last?
Results can last up to a year or more, depending on the fillers used. We will make customized recommendations to achieve your desired outcome.
What can I expect from these appointments?
The length of each appointment can typically take 15-20 minutes in our Boulder practice. Depending on the treatment, most patients can see results immediately and the downtime is minimal (1-3 days).
What fillers do you use in your Boulder Valley office?
Botox/Xeomin
BOTOX is a purified protein that relaxes targeted facial muscles responsible for expression lines, such as the vertical folds between the eyebrows (the 11s), crow’s feet, fine lines around the lips, and horizontal forehead creases.
Juvederm/Voluma/Volbella/Vollure
JUVEDERM® dermal fillers restore volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, including “laugh lines,” “smile lines” (nasolabial folds), “tear troughs,” and “marionette lines” (oral commissures) for months at a time. We offer several dermal fillers in the JUVEDERM® line—including VOLUMA®, VOLLURE®, and VOLBELLA®—at our Boulder office.
RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler
RADIESSE® volumizing dermal filler restores volume in the “smile lines” (nasolabial folds), “marionette lines” (oral commissures), and the central face. Results last approximately 12 to 18 months.
