JUVEDERM® Moscow - Clarkston
From the creators of Botox® Cosmetic, JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel was designed to restore the youthful skin that has been diminished by age, the elements and other skin changes. This injectable gel filler, is a “next generation” dermal filler that has been FDA approved for treatment in the areas of the nasolabial folds. JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel is made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration.
As a non-surgical procedure, our physicians gently eases JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel under the skin into the mid to deep dermis layer of skin of the face to instantly restore your skin’s volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, “smile lines”, or “parentheses” (nasolabial folds – the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth). Unlike many collagen-based dermal fillers, JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel provides a smooth, natural, noticeable look and feel.
The most common areas where JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel is used are:
- Nasolabial folds (the lines between the corners of the mouth and to the corners of the nose) Juvederm® has received FDA approval for treatment of this region.
Other areas that have proven safe and effective for “off-label” use for Juvederm® are:
- Lips
- Marionette lines (the vertical lines just below the lip corners)
- Tear trough (area below the eyelid that looks like a dark circle)
- Cheeks
A JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel advantage is its pliant gel consistency, which may provide a smoother, more natural-looking appearance than some of its more rigid predecessors. Another advantage to using JUVEDERM® Injectable Gel is it may last longer than collagen fillers, maintaining the improved appearance for six to nine months.

Radiesse
Radiesse is a new generation non-surgical facial contouring filler that delivers an immediate, longer lasting result. The unique composition of Radiesse provides immediate visual improvement common with other fillers, but with the benefit of long-term effects. This is because Radiesse is made of very tiny, smooth calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres. The microspheres form a lattice beneath the skin, through which your body's own collagen grows. This produces the desired longer-term effect seen with Radiesse over other dermal fillers.
Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a polysaccharide carrier. Calcium hydroxylapatite is very similar to the natural composition of our teeth and bones. When injected in the skin, the microspheres form a type of scaffolding underneath the skin. When the microspheres are absorbed within the scaffolding, a collagenation takes place - creating longer lasting volume in the treated area.

Radiesse is used effectively as an alternative to surgery for facial contouring. Radiesse can be used to add volume to sunken cheek bones, create a more pronounced jaw line, and more.
Radiesse is also used as a longer-lasting dermal filler to treat signs of aging caused by loss of volume under the skin. Radiesse is commonly used to add volume under the eyelids to reduce dark circles, as a treatment for sunken cheeks and to treat deeper creases and folds in the skin such as nasolabial folds and frown lines.

Any person who wishes to reduce the signs of aging, and is seeking a longer-lasting result, is potentially a candidate for Radiesse treatments. Your Provider will determine if Radiesse is the best option for you based on your overall goals.

One of the greatest combination treatments involves the simultaneous use of Radiesse and Botox. With this combo treatment, an "instant face lift" may be achieved by using Botox in the brow and forehead region, and Radiesse to add volume to the face.
CLOSE
Typically no anesthetic is needed for Radiesse injections. Most patients experience very minimal discomfort. Anesthetic and special cooling devices are available to increase your comfort.
CLOSE
In general, no recovery time is needed and the results from Radiesse are immediate. You will be instructed not to rub the treated area for a couple of hours after the treatment. You may experience some swelling and bruising at the injection site, but any discoloration is temporary and can be covered with your usual cosmetics.
CLOSE
Results from Radiesse can last up to 2-3 years. Most patients see their results lasting between 12 to 16 months.
