Is A Filler Lift An Alternative To A Surgical Face Lift?

Many plastic surgeons believe that when the correct individual dermal filler, or in some cases, the correct combination of fillers to treat wrinkles, the results are very similar to those achieved from much more invasive procedures.

Dermal fillers widely accepted and used in modern cosmetic dermatology and cosmetic surgery procedures as an instant aesthetic treatment. A dermal filler treatment is one of a small number of cosmetic procedures that typically provide immediate results and a noticeable improvement and does not require down time like procedures such as a face lift.

These days there is a mind boggling number of choices when electing to have a dermal filler treatment. It is not an uncommon practice for a cosmetic surgeon to utilize a single type of filler to treat more than one area of concern.

New York Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr. Karyn Grossman states "Each individual dermal filler has qualities that differ from other fillers, and therefore provide different results. By utilizing multiple filler types to treat different areas of a patients face, and using the best filler for each treatment area, one can achieve the most beautiful and natural looking results possible."

Facial Rejuvenation Never Looked So good!

My friend whom I will call Tammy Had been talking to my wife about ways to keep that youthful look. As I sat at my computer researching Plastic Surgery Information, I over heard Tammy describe her dissatisfaction with the way her face looked and more over, the areas of her face where she had experienced some fat loss. Tammy mentioned Botox didn't help much and chemical peels and laser resurfacing were not the solution.

I invited Tammy into my office and showed her a Cosmetic Dermatologist website I had found that described a fix for what Tammy did not like about her face. The facial rejuvenation procedure called Sculptra is done by injecting this compound called Sculptra below the skin's surface in the ares of fat loss and thus providing the areas a gradual filling.

Long Story Short Tammy decided to see her doctor about Sculptra. I am happy to say that She did have the procedure, and after just a few treatments, I can definitely see a difference. I think Tammy can too. She seems more vibrant, happy and she now has more confidence.
