Turn Back the Hands of Time with Dermal Fillers

August 5, 2021 BY BELLADERM MEDSPA

As aging begins to show its mark, our skin starts to lose elasticity and volume which leads to sagging, fine lines, and wrinkles on the face. Unfortunately, we can’t stop the inevitable progress of aging that comes with the ticking clock. Injectable dermal fillers are a great way to restore the volume and radiance in your skin and return it to its original youthful state. Read on for how to turn back the hands of time with dermal fillers.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are soft, gel-like substances that are injected just below the skin. Dermal fillers work well with your body because of the main ingredient – hyaluronic acid. This naturally occurring substance is found in the body, and when injected, mimics your own HA. Fillers address a variety of concerns including sagging cheeks, loss of volume in the lips, and under eye circles without having to undergo surgery. A younger appearance can be accomplished with no down time and minimal discomfort.

Types of Dermal Fillers

Juvéderm: Juvéderm is known as the world’s #1 selling dermal filler collection because of their natural-looking and long-lasting results. With their variety of options, you’ll know your treatment will be customized to your specific needs.

  • Juvéderm Ultra: One of the softest dermal fillers in the Juvéderm family. Juvéderm Ultra is used to treat mild to medium-depth wrinkles located from your nose to the corners of your mouth. Juvéderm Ultra treatments are usually relatively painless and quick. This is the ideal treatment for anyone seeking to smooth mild to medium-depth wrinkles or plump areas with minor skin depression.
  • Juvéderm Ultra Plus: This filler is a thicker version of the Juvéderm Ultra. It’s used to fill in deeper facial wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. This filler choice is ideal for those looking to smooth deep folds and wrinkles or fill out deep skin depression or fat loss.
  • Juvéderm Volbella: This filler is a combination of different molecular weights of hyaluronic acid that creates subtle volume. Volbella is usually suggested to clients that are looking to increase lip fullness or soften the appearance of lines around the mouth. Vobella is also known for being the thinnest type of filler in the Juvéderm family, making it a great option for filling out and smoothing the under eye area.
  • Juvéderm Voluma: Voluma is ideal for deeper injections into the cheeks as it is the strongest and thickest filler in the collection. When injected, it defines the targeted area while giving your face a natural lift.

Radiesse: This dermal filler is suggested for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds. If you are looking to fill nasolabial folds or correct volume loss in your hands, this is a great filler option. Over time, Radiesse stimulates your natural collagen, making your treatment long lasting with no downtime.

Restylane : Designed to act like your body’s naturally producing hyaluronic acid, this filler offers solutions for a variety of needs. Whether you are looking to correct severe facial wrinkling or fill in nasolabial folds, this filler will support and structure your tissue giving you a youthful appearance.

  • Restylane Kysse: Lips with natural-looking volume and Kysse-able softness. Restylane® Kysse is the first lip filler designed with XpresHAn Technology™ for flexible movement and natural-looking volume proven to last for up to 1 year. 1-3 Enhance texture and color of the lips while maintaining a full range of expressions.
  • Restylane Define: Crafted with XpresHAn Technology™, Restylane® Defyne helps smooth out deep laugh lines (nasolabial folds and marionette lines) as well as enhance chin projection. Using innovative cross-linking technology, Restylane® Defyne is a HA dermal filler that restores a more youthful, natural-looking appearance, while maintaining your expressions and movement.
  • Restylane Contour: Restylane® Contour is the only cheek filler that uses XpresHAn Technology ™ providing flexible movement and natural looking results.

Liquid Lift: One of the most versatile options within the non-surgical options. Liquid lift can smooth wrinkles, enhance cheeks, restore volume, lift eyebrows, and plump lips. Results are immediate without prolonged downtime.

What to Expect

Typically, your treatment begins with a consultation to discuss your concerns and your desired outcome. Your provider will review types of fillers, what their results will be and your standing medical history. It’s important at that time to disclose any medications, allergies, or neurological conditions you have with your injection specialist.

Prior to the injections being administered, the site is prepped, and a topical anesthetic is applied to numb the area. Once numb, your provider will then carefully inject the filler below the skin. Once the treatment is finished, it’s possible to experience some bruising and swelling which may last three to five days after treatment.

Our trained specialists are happy to discuss which filler is right for you and talk through any questions you may have.

Skin Care Services for the Holidays

December 4, 2019 BY BELLADERM MEDSPA
Skin Care Services for the Holidays

Everyone has their own glow; they just need to see it for themselves. At Belladerm MedSpa, we’re passionate about providing innovative skin care services and products to help our clients love their bodies. In the business of this festive month, take some extra time to pamper yourself by scheduling an appointment at Maple Grove’s state-of-the-art medical spa.

Where Did Your Glow Go?

As you age, your body loses hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance that gives your skin structure and volume. HA retains moisture so your skin looks and feels more supple, firm, and youthful. With dermal fillers such as Juvederm®, you can make sure your skin gets the HA it needs to decrease volume loss and produce a softer visage.

Lift Your Spirits

Combine fillers with Botox® for a more complete, longer-lasting anti-aging routine. BOTOX® is a purified, naturally recurring protein that can help reverse the effects of fine lines and wrinkles. This treatment only takes a few minutes and is performed by our expert injection specialists.

Now is the perfect time to try BOTOX® with our Wrinkle Free Fridays promotion. When you book your BOTOX® appointment for any Friday through December 20, you can receive 20 units for only $199.

Start the New Year Fresh

With 2020 approaching, this is the season to start fresh. The Halo™ hybrid fractional laser triggers the skin’s natural healing response to promote deep dermal revitalization and epidermal renewal. Halo™ combines non-ablative and ablative wavelengths in a single pass to improve tone and texture and restore a youthful glow.

Ditch the Stress

Let’s face it—holidays are stressful. So while you run your errands, stop into Belladerm for a facial or to purchase a gift card for that special someone on your list. Facials detoxify the skin, promote blood circulation, and lower stress. Routine treatments can be your best defense against dead skin buildup and clogged pores. We offer the Bella Classic Corrective facial for women and the Gentlemen’s Executive™ facial for male clientele.

If you’re looking to take your skin cleanse a bit further, try our HydraFacial™. For those who struggle with fine lines, congested or enlarged pores, oily skin, acne, hyperpigmentation, or brown spots, this four-in-one facial is the perfect treatment. The HydraFacial™ will help you achieve radiant, replenished, younger-looking skin.

One More Tip

Microneedling increases the production of collagen, making your skin look and act younger. AQUAGOLD® is a new micro-channeling treatment that combines the restorative benefits of microneedling with medical-grade cosmetics. This revolutionary device is made of 24-karat gold needles smaller than a human hair. AQUAGOLD® allows your provider to apply a customized blend of anti-aging products directly under the skin, giving you a vibrant complexion.

When you come into Belladerm, we’ll give you a free consultation and help you select which services or products are right for your goals. What are you waiting for? Find your glow today.

BOTOX® and Filler Combination Treatment

April 3, 2019 BY BELLADERM MEDSPA
botox and fillers

When it comes to anti-aging treatments, many people have experienced how BOTOX® can smooth fine wrinkles and make you look years younger.  Dermal fillers can address what Botox can’t!!

As you age, sun damage and other factors can reduce the amount of HA (hyaluronic acid) in your skin. The lack of HA causes your skin to lose structure and volume – creating unwanted facial wrinkles and folds, like those parentheses lines around your nose and mouth. Dermal fillers can give a more natural appearance than surgical face lifts and are being used to reduce or eliminate deeper wrinkles, raise scar depressions, enhance lips, and replace soft-tissue volume loss.

What is BOTOX®?

BOTOX® is the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment. It’s made of a protein called botulinum toxin, which blocks certain nerves to relax the facial muscles. By relaxing muscle activity, BOTOX® smooths crow’s feet, frown lines, and eye/forehead wrinkles. BOTOX® can last from three to four months, depending on the treatment.

What are fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectables often made of hyaluronic acid that plumps the skin to fill in lines and smooth out creases. Filler injections are used to treat nasolabial folds, increase lip fullness, and restore volume to the cheeks. Fillers can last from six to 18 months, depending on the area of application.

How do BOTOX® and fillers work together?

BOTOX® and fillers are two types of injectables made of substances that affect the body in different ways. When used at the same time, they complement each other. According to a scholarly review in the Dermatologic Therapy journal, the combined use of BOTOX® and dermal fillers will increase tissue-dwelling time for injectables. Without BOTOX®, fillers don’t last as long because the body absorbs the substance over time. The more active and animated the face, the sooner fillers disappear. BOTOX® reduces muscle movement so fillers are less likely to break down as quickly. Combined treatment addresses multiple facial features at once and offers a more complete, longer-lasting facial lift.

Where can I find BOTOX® and filler combination treatments?

As a Diamond Level Provider for Allergan, with highly trained injection specialists, Belladerm MedSpa offers BOTOX® and JUVÉDERM® in a number of combination treatments, depending on the specific needs of the client.

Now through May 31, 2019, we are offering a Beauty in a Box special. Get 20 units of BOTOX® and one syringe of JUVÉDERM® for $725 (regularly $850). Request an appointment for your free consultation. Contact us for more information.
