Dermal Filler

Young skin is smooth and elastic and contains a large amount of a naturally occurring substance that helps the skin look healthy. As we get older, the ability of the skin to produce this substance decreases and the amount in the skin begins to fall. As a result, our skin and lips start to lose volume, and our face starts to feel the effects of gravity. Now there is a natural, non-animal and non-surgical solution for smoothing facial folds and giving the lips a fuller, more sensuous form.

Dermal Filler, is a crystal-clear, biodegradable gel made from the same substance that naturally occurs in the skin. The gel is injected in tiny amounts with a very fine needle resulting in natural looking and immediate results that refresh our appearance and involve NO DOWN TIME.
