Restore youthful volume
The loss of volume is an unfortunate sign of aging. As you grow older, your facial skin starts looking gaunt and hollow, giving your face a drawn and tired appearance. Furthermore, the loss of facial volume also leads to fine lines, wrinkles, and “crepey” skin, which can negatively affect your confidence and self-esteem. Glo Medspa provides highly personalized dermal fillers and micro-needling treatments to restore youthful volume and reverse the signs of aging.
Volume Loss: Causes
Collagen and elastin are the two most important components for the skin’s overall health, hydration, and youthful appearance. Collagen is a fibrous protein that holds your skin upright, preventing the force of gravity from pulling your skin downwards. Collagen and elastin also make your skin look firm, tight, and supple. As you grow older, your body’s ability to produce new collagen fibers is reduced, leading to the gradual loss of volume, making your skin sag and droop downwards.
Volume Loss: Treatment Options
Dermal Fillers - Restylane, Juvederm, Versa
Dermal fillers are cosmetic injectables that introduce specific components underneath your facial skin tissues to reverse the signs of aging. We carry a wide range of dermal fillers, all of them made using different active ingredients and formulations. However, broadly speaking, dermal fillers can be divided into two categories — hyaluronic acid fillers and collagen-inducing fillers. We provide both hyaluronic acid-based and collagen induction fillers, depending on your unique goals.
Biostimulator - Radiesse
Meanwhile, collagen induction fillers, such as Radiesse, catalyze your body’s natural collagen production capabilities. When injected into targeted regions experiencing volume loss, Radiesse encourages your body to produce new collagen fibers. These fillers also produce instant results, but the final results appear gradually as your collagen reserves are increased. The formation of new collagen fibers leads to volume restoration, making your skin look firm, taut, and sculpted.
Sculptra - Biostimulator
Sculptra® Aesthetic is an excellent option for adding volume throughout the entire face. As you age, your body’s collagen production decreases, and you may begin to see wrinkles. Sculptra works to correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds as it replaces lost collagen, which can help provide a refined, more youthful-looking appearance.
Sculptra is one of the longest-lasting “fillers” available. It works by initially filling a wrinkle with PLLA micro-particles*. As these microscopic beads biodegrade they stimulate the production of new collagen. Sculptra is suitable for deep folds between the nose and the mouth (nasolabial folds), the lines framing your mouth (marionette lines), and chin wrinkles. Sculptra is also used in volume loss in the lower face or temples. Final results do not happen for a number of weeks so it is very appealing to many people because it is more subtle than dermal fillers.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is an extremely effective means of collagen restoration. The cosmetic provider uses a specialized device to make numerous micro-channels on the skin’s surface. The micro-injuries activate your body’s natural healing processes, such as collagen production and skin cell regeneration. Over time, your body produces new collagen fibers to heal the wounds and restore your skin’s volume, thus reversing the signs of aging.
