Artefill - A Permanent Dermal Filler

Smooth out your wrinkles and folds or give your cheeks a fuller, more youthful look with Artefill, a new cosmetic permanent soft tissue filler which can last more than 10 years. * Note Video Below
 

Artefill is injected into the skin at the dermal/subdermal juncture where your own collagen production begins. During the time the temporary collagen component in Artefill breaks down, your skin's own collagen producers are at work, plumping and restoring the treated area with new natural collagen.

 

Effects are immediate with full effects of your new natural collagen replacement evident in about 3 months.

 

Artefill has an excellent safety profile. The permanent ultra-smooth microspheres - which make up about 20% of the product volume - are made of  polymethlymethacrylate (PMMA). PMMA has been safely used in intraocular lens implants of the eye for cataract surgery since the 1950's. It also has time -tested applications in orthopedic surgery and dentistry.

 

These tiny biocompatible microspheres stay in the skin permanently, acting as a continuous catalyst and support system for your own collagen production and preservation. These microspheres are only about 32–40 micrometers in diameter (500 micrometers could fit in the period at the end of this sentence).

 

Depending on the depth of their wrinkles and folds, most peopleArtefill Wrinkle Correction get the results they want with one or two treatments. Dr. Mani offers  Personalized Progressive Enhancement™ to gradually reach the level of correction you are most pleased with. Continue reading for more information and photos

Chemical Brow Lift

Botulinum toxin can also be used to elevate the brows, resulting in a more youthful appearance. This has been referred to in the literature as a chemical brow lift. The technique of lifting the brow includes injection of the glabellar area.

Botox treatment of the lateral depressors of the brow (the muscles that push "down") results in an average brow elevation of 4.83 mm - 1

Botox is FDA approved for the cosmetic treatment of frown lines as well as a number of medical applications including hyperhidrosis and eyelid spasm. Additional "off label" applications are used for appearance improvement around the mouth and eyes.
