Areas of Treatment

As we age, we lose facial volume by loss and redistribution of fat, bone, collagen, and elastin. Collectively, this weakens your skin's inner structure, decreasing it's ability to maintain elasticity and moisture.  Facial volume loss may appear as hollow temples, sunken-in eye sockets, flattened cheeks, or loose sagging skin around the jawline also known as jowls.  Dermal fillers are a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment that helps restore volume/youthfulness, soften the appearance of lines, or enhance current features with little to no downtime.
