What Are Injectables and Facial Fillers?
Injectables and facial fillers are natural or synthetic materials that are injected into the skin to create a firmer, more youthful appearance. With time, our skin starts to lose collagen and fat, which creates lines, wrinkles, and sagging in the skin. Injectables and facial fillers help plump the skin, making it look fuller and healthier.
Collagen and other fillers have been used for years in lip enhancement, lip augmentation, wrinkle correction, and other skin rejuvenation procedures. At San Francisco Plastic Surgery in California, we offer a variety of injectables and facial fillers. If you are interested in any of the treatments listed below, please contact San Francisco Plastic Surgery for more information or to schedule a consultation.

Juvederm Family of Fillers
Everyone’s skin folds and wrinkles when they make facial expressions. In young skin, these “movement” wrinkles don’t often last. However, over time, and as our skin loses collagen and hyaluronic acid, these wrinkles become deeper and more permanent.
JUVÉDERM XC restores your skin’s natural, plump, full look by injecting one of those lost elements – hyaluronic acid. With care and touch-up, JUVÉDERM XC offer help with areas around the mouth, lips, and nose for up to a whole year*. This solution is quick – often only taking one office visit – and easy (it works with any skin type).
Juvederm Voluma
If the skin on your face appears to be thin and sunken, it’s probably due to low levels of hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that naturally exists between the cells of your body and gives your skin a firm, youthful appearance. As you age this substance decreases, causing wrinkles and fine lines. But when Juvederm Voluma in San Francisco, AZ is injected into your cheeks, your skin is restored within minutes, leaving your face firmer, plumper, and more youthful. Results that define your features, not your age.
Perlane and Restylane
Folds, creases, wrinkles, and fine lines are something that we all deal with as we age. Over the years, we are exposed to harmful UV rays from the sun, which makes these facial issues start to appear. However, as we grow older, there’s a natural breakdown of collagen and elastin, but our bodies aren’t able to replenish like it used to. If you are worried about these facial issues, then Dr. Michael Echavez and his staff can help.
Dr. Michael Echavez uses a new, non-animal based filler called Restylane to help treat those fine lines, wrinkles, folds, and creases. Restylane uses a biodegradable gel that’s composed of hyaluronic acid. This filler adds volume to the skin through small injections rather than a single big one. In turn, this evens out facial folds and wrinkles.
BellaFill
BellaFill corrects facial wrinkles known as nasolabial folds, or smile lines. Unlike existing dermal fillers that are completely metabolized by the body, BellaFill represents the first product in a new category of non-resorbent dermal fillers providing a permanent support structure for enduring wrinkle reparation.
Dr. Michael Echavez MD and his medical team at San Francisco Plastic Surgery offer BellaFill to patients who want permanent correction of facial wrinkles and lines. For more details on the treatment, contact us today to set up an appointment. We provide BellaFill to men and women who live in San Francisco and beyond, including residents of Spring and The Woodlands.
