I have marionette lines, lip lines, and wrinkles all at once! What's the best wrinkle fillers to get rid of these lines!?
Answer: Juvederm is my favorite wrinkle filler When we graduated medical school, our professors told us "primum non nocere", first don't harm people. I interpret this as meaning that the treatments we give our patients should be safe. I am proud now that the reports of granulomas with Artecoll and Radiance are surfacing that not one single patient of ours has ever been injected with that substance. Now that silicone horror stories are well-known, not one patient has ever been injected with silicone in our office. While many patients will continue to be injected by the newest fillers with non-natural components such as methyl methacrylate beads, plastic spheres, liquid silicone, silicone gels, we will not inject them in our practice, because it simply does not make sense to put a permanent or semipermanent non-biologic material into the face in my opinion. I am impressed with the safety and effectiveness of hyaluronic acid fillers. Prevelle is a lighter hyaluronic acid with a little lidocaine in it for sensitive patients or patients with little or no recovery time. You can see by the posts that occasionally the heavier hyaluronic acids such as the Juvederm series and Restylane or Perlane, wonderful fillers which we use daily, can cause swelling for several days, so this should be factored for patients who are on camera (i.e. newscasters) or have important social obligations immediately following their injections. So while you can argue which is the best filler, please avoid the bad ones.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Treating multiple aging symptoms at one time Thank you for your question. One of the most challenging aspects of pesky aging symptoms is they can seem to appear quite suddenly and often simultaneously. The good news is you can address all of these concerns in a single treatment session in most cases. Injectable fillers work very well to smooth away lines in the lower half of the face, including marionette lines. I might suggest Juvederm or Restylane for this area, although there are other options as well. Lip lines, also known as perioral lines, can be treated with a smooth injectable filler like Kysse. If lines are severe, laser resurfacing might be a better option. Finally neuromodulators are used to diminish lines that occur as a result of repetitive facial movement. All of these procedures could be performed together so you only need to schedule one appointment in most cases. I recommend scheduling a consultation with an experienced, board-certified injector who can examine you in person and create a customized treatment plan that meets your needs and goals best.

Answer: Filler for marionette and lower face Hello and thank you for your question. Unfortunately, it does feel like aging happens overnight!! Thank goodness there are products and procedures that can make the aging process a little easier! For marionette lines, deeper lines around the mouth and lip lines we can use the allergan filler, vollure. Vollure is a hyaluronic acid gel filler that can last up to 10 months in these areas. If, in any case you do not like your filler, it can be dissolved. Vollure will help soften the lines in these areas while still looking elegant and natural. For fine lines and wrinkles in the upper face-forehead/between brows and crows feet areas, botox would be the first treatment I would recommend. Botox will relax the muscles in these areas. This will give your body time to heal in pre-existing lines and prevent new ones from forming. Botox can also lift the brows and open your eyes a little. Whatever you decide, make sure you are going to an experienced, board certified provider to discuss your expectations and areas of concern. Good luck to you !!!

Answer: Improving facial wrinkles / lip lines with fillers, Botox, Sculptra, Ultherapy, RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP Wrinkles and lines can be improved with a combination of Botox and/or fillers for the lines themselves and to build anatomical support with Sculptra for collagen building. Ultherapy is a great skin tightening device, but works best in combination with other treatments like RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP or sculptra to get increased collagen, tightening and improve skin tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Sudden lower face lines Unfortunately, at some point, usually after 35 years old, we start noticing these lines after years of facial animation. I always believe that area needs to be addressed slowly and with the thicker fillers in the marionette lines and naso-labial lines, with the thinner fillers in lips and surrounding area. It really should be a process with gradual improvement as that lower face can look too full if injected with too much filler too quickly. Progress not perfection is my motto.Best of luck,Dr. G
