Transforming Yourself with Chemical Peels and Youthful Lip Fillers in Leawood

Transforming Yourself with Chemical Peels and Youthful Lip Fillers in LeawoodHave you been thinking about visiting our med spa in Leawood? Maybe you have been considering a chemical peel in Leawood or perhaps you have your heart set on those fuller lips. All of the ladies are just dying to look like Angelina Jolie. What is all the fuss about anyway? Lip fillers in Leawood is a no stress, no down time surgery process where lips are injected with a dermal filler.

There are many types. Here APS, our KC Plastic surgeons use fillers for different reasons including our lip fillers in Leawood. These are found on our website, but also described below. Read on to find out how we use fillers to benefit our clients.

Lip Fillers in Leawood—JUVÉDERM®

JUVÉDERM is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. JUVÉDERM is placed under the skin to instantly restore volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds. This product is often used to correct the look of “smile lines” or “parentheses” around the mouth (also called nasolabial folds, these creases run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).

JUVÉDERM can be used anywhere in the face. It can correct fine lines around the lips as well as augment lips for lip fillers in Leawood. JUVÉDERM will naturally break down over time and the lasting effect varies from person to person as well as the injection site. Your doctor can provide general guidelines as to when retreatment will be needed. Patients who use JUVÉDERM often combine this treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic for more comprehensive results.

Lip Fillers in Leawood–Restylane & Perlane®

Restylane and Perlane restore volume to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth. These rejuvenating cosmetic beauty treatments result in a younger-looking you. Restylane and Perlane are both comprised of hyaluronic acid. Restylane is widely used to treat superficial lines and wrinkles, whereas Perlane is used for deeper skin folds and wrinkles.

Lip Fillers in Leawood–Sculptra® Aesthetic

Sculptra is a safe, synthetic, and biocompatible material that is injected below the surface of the skin to stimulate your own collagen to fill in folds and wrinkles due to the loss of volume in the face. Made up of Poly-L-lactic acid, the filler is actually your own collagen. Typically, 3 injections of Sculptra are done over a 2 to 3-month period or until the desired effect is achieved and can last up to 2 years, although results vary.

It provides gradual, not overnight, results by significantly increasing skin thickness and improving the appearance of folds and sunken areas. Sculptra is approved for use in the entire facial area, except for around the eyes. Sculptra is often used in conjunction with a facelift since the surgery does not restore lost volume in the face. Sculptra provides a natural, refined look, not a puffy face.

Lip Fillers in Leawood–RADIESSE®

RADIESSE is made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel and is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive procedure. These calcium-based microspheres actually stimulate your own collagen to produce a natural look.

This dermal filler is the ideal choice for total facial contouring. It can restore a healthy, youthful appearance, enhance your existing features, help you defy age and gravity, and increase your confidence — all without invasive surgery or scarring. RADIESSE replaces lost volume and stimulates collagen. Actual results vary with individual factors, but typically last more than a year.

Lip Fillers in Leawood–BELOTERO BALANCE®

BELOTERO BALANCE is comprised of hydraulic acid and is an ideal dermal filler for the fine lines around the lips and the deep folds from your nose to the corners of your mouth. It is formulated to adapt to your skin for soft, natural look.

Dermal fillers often called hyaluronic fillers are safer and last longer than fat injections. Implants come with side effects so lip fillers in Leawood are definitely your best bet. Hyaluronic acid fillers can improve the appearance of your lips by adding:

  • Shape
  • Structure
  • Volume

Once these fillers are injected the gel in the filler supports and shapes the tissues in your lips, adding more volume and delivering the look you want. To top off your day at our med spa in Leawood, stop by and book an appointment for VI chemical peels in Leawood.
