Q What fillers would you recommend for me to have a more youthful look? (Photo)
A
Hi Salle,
From your picture, I would suggest starting with a filler for your cheeks, such as Voluma by Allergan. The cheeks are always the area where I start injections because once they are slightly lifted and fuller, the bottom area of the face, particularly the paranthese lines, will dimish slightly. Volumas results are immediate with little to no swelling. If you decide you want to then address the under eye, or tear trough area, a great filler is Volbella by Allergan.

SculpSure
Q Can SculpSure help with menopause belly/flank/thighs?
A
Thank you for your question. Yes, SculpSure can help with menopausal fat gain in the areas you mentioned. We are a med spa within an OBGYN practice so the majority of those women seeking Sculpsure treatments are current patients with our practice and most are dealing with hormonal fat areas which diet and exercise cannot target. We see the best results in patients who are motivated; whether they are currently exercising and maintaining a healthy diet or those who know they will benefit from Sculpsure in conjunction to 'kicking it up a notch' with their lifestyle. We believe Sculpsure is just 'one prong' in the process. Patients like you are very happy with their results. Ironically, most didn't see or feel much of a loss after the first treatment because they are looking at their bodies every day to see immediate results! However, we take pictures at each appointment and patients were happily to surpised to see the difference just after one treatment! It encouraged them to maintian their healthy lifestyle which only benefited the many symptoms of menopause!

Voluma
Q I've been using Radiesse or years, thinking of changing to Voluma because it lasts for 2 years. What do you think?
A
Both products are on label for mid face volume. We prefer Voluma over Radiesse due to the Vycross technology and the fact it does last longer. This is important to many patients.We've also seen Voluma looks better over a period of time and that's also benficial to the patients!
