Results can be seen within 24 to 48 hours after your treatment, but it typically takes 1 – 2 weeks for optimal results.  Results will usually last 3 – 4 months.

Juvéderm® XC – a hyaluronic acid filler used to diminish parentheses lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth, as volume is added to make these lines smoother. It has been proven to last up to a year. 

Juvéderm® Ultra XC – a hyaluronic acid filler used for treatment of thinning lips by adding volume to give the appearance of fuller lips. Natural looking, this product lasts up to a year. 

Juvéderm Voluma® XC – a hyaluronic acid filler used to treat age-related “midface volume loss”, Juvéderm Voluma® XC plumps up the cheeks to add contour and a more youthful appearance. Can last up to two years.

KYBELLA® – fullness under the chin is reduced as fat cells are destroyed by this injectable solution.  Multiple treatments (2 – 3) may be required for optimal results. Once you reach your desired goal, no further treatment is needed, as the destroyed cells can no longer store fat.
