One of the primary reasons for visible facial aging is the loss of collagen, a fibrous protein in the deep dermis that gives structure to the skin and supports the functions of elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA). Elastin is an elastic protein that maintains skin shape, while HA cushions and lubricates to keep the skin hydrated.

Soft tissue fillers are injectable hyaluronic acid gels that provide more volume to the face and hands to smooth the appearance of wrinkles and folds. There are many options when it comes to fillers, and a consultation with a licensed professional is the best way to figure out which is best for your needs.

Treatments are recommended every 6-12 months for optimum results.

Non-surgical Facial Rejuvenation

As we age, our face changes in many ways. This is a normal part of the aging process, but genetics and environmental factors may also play a role.

You may notice a change in the appearance of your skin such as volume loss in cheeks, thinning lips, or deepening parenthetical lines around the mouth.

At Devenir Aesthetics in Austin, we believe in aging beautifully in which our patients feel and look their best.

Everyone has a unique structure and requires a unique cosmetic approach, whether it is using clear gel hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, fat-grafting, dermal grafts, or cosmetic surgical procedures.

Cheek Augmentation and Jawline Redefinition

Juvederm Voluma®XC, Radiesse, and Restylane® Lyft™ add fullness to correct age-related volume loss in the cheeks, as well as support the lower eyelid and blend the lip cheek junction to help create a more youthful appearance.

Our hands confess our age. Yes, you can restore volume to the hands. FDA recently approved hyaluronic acid fillers to correct the volume deficit in the back of the hands.

Juvederm Vollure® XC and Restylane® Refyne™ and Defyne™ soften moderate to severe facial lines and wrinkles, such as the nasolabial folds (laugh lines) to create a smoother and more natural appearance.

Galderma received FDA approval for Restylane® Contour for cheek augmentation and correction of midface contour deficiencies. It can be injected into the cheek area to add desired volume and shapeliness.

The only product in the U.S. formulated with XpresHAn Technology™ for the cheeks which allows for more specific placement with flexibility. XpresHAn Technology™ uses a unique manufacturing process that creates a smooth, injectable gel that integrates into the skin for natural, dynamic expression in motion. In other words, more “sculpt-ability.”

Sculptra®

One of our favorite approaches to restoring volume to the face, neck, and body is Galderma® Sculptra® Aesthetic. Sculptra® Aesthetic works subtly and gradually over time for a more youthful-looking appearance. As a poly-L-lactic acid, Sculptra® Aesthetic helps stimulate your skin’s own natural collagen production to help restore its inner structure and increase facial volume that has been lost to aging. More collagen enables the presence of more elastin and HA. 1-3

Sculptra® Aesthetic is intended for use in people with healthy immune systems as a one-time treatment regimen of up to four injection sessions that are scheduled about three months apart.

Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation is a highly desired enhancement goal.

Lip enhancement requires the use of injectable fillers. Other lip-enhancing procedures may include re-texturing around the perioral skin with chemical peels or laser resurfacing.

Juvederm® Ultra XC and Restylane® add fullness and definition to lips.

Juvederm Volbella® XC, Restylane® Silk, and Kysse® add subtle volume to lips and softens the appearance of vertical lines for a more natural look.
