If you’d like to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without surgery, injectable fillers may be right for you. You can achieve temporary or long-lasting results through tiny injections in specific areas of the face.

Your surgeon will suggest which type of filler or combination of fillers can best help you reach your goals.

Common fillers include:

  • Radiesse®, a synthetic filler made of calcium hydroxyapatite used in multiple facial areas for moderate to severe wrinkles
  • Hyaluronic acid fillers, made from a substance naturally found in the body. Results tend to look more natural and last eight to 12 months. Brands include: Juvederm®, Restylane®, Perlane, and Belotero Balance®
  • Fat, which fills out wrinkles and lines that develop from laughing, squinting, frowning and other facial movements
