Dr. Christine Lee and her team at The Skin and Laser Treatment Institute in Walnut Creek, CA identify the best injectable dermal fillers for you. They work with you to maximize the results from the procedure, and to keep you looking your radiant and youthful best.
Selecting a filler
Dr. Lee is pleased to offer many types of fillers. There is sure to be a product that suits your needs. The longer-lasting fillers are known as collagen stimulators, because they prompt your body to make more collagen. As you get older, the natural production of collagen diminishes and skin loses its firmness and elasticity, resulting in wrinkles. Some of the most popular fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, and generally don’t last as long as collagen stimulators do. Just because a filler is long-lasting, doesn’t mean it is the best one for you. Recommendations are based on a personalized consultation.
Lock in your look
We are confident you’ll be happy with the results, and will want to keep that rejuvenated appearance.
At some point, filler products require touch-up treatments.
They do diminish, but you may require fewer treatments over the long
term, as the effects of regular maintenance sessions can be cumulative.
Cosmetic treatments reset the clock; they don’t stop it. Practice good skin care:
- Prevent the future damage by using a broad-spectrum, high SPF sunscreen. Exercise other UV protection and preventive measures, such as avoiding lots of exposure during peak times of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and wearing wide-brimmed hats.
- Use medical-grade products or those recommended by Dr. Lee following the procedure. If you’re unsure about the wealth of products marketed as professional skincare, ask us!
- Get your desired look and optimize the results with other cosmetic procedures like Botox.
