Dermal Filler Therapy
Enhance Your Natural Beauty with Dermal Filler Therapy at Virtue Anti-Aging Clinic
What is Dermal Filler Therapy at Virtue Anti-Aging Clinic?
Dermal Filler Therapy at Virtue Anti-Aging Clinic, under the expert guidance of Dr. Krikorian, is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. This innovative therapy uses gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to provide a youthful and refreshed appearance.
How It Works:
Dermal fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible materials that mimic the natural substances found in your skin. When injected, these fillers add volume to the targeted areas, smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines, and enhancing facial features. The procedure is minimally invasive and offers immediate results with little to no downtime. In addition to the most popular types of commercially available fillers, Virtue Anti-Aging Clinic also offers holistic options that utilize the patient's own blood products for volumizing treatments, as well as innovative stem cell therapies. These advanced treatments include combinations like the Stem Cell Facelift, Stem Cell Facial, and Liquid Facelift, which harness the regenerative power of stem cells to rejuvenate and enhance your natural beauty. By integrating these cutting-edge approaches, we provide personalized solutions that promote natural healing and deliver long-lasting, youthful results.
Common Treatment Areas:
- Cheeks: Restore volume and lift sagging skin for a more youthful contour.
- Lips: Enhance fullness, define the shape, and smooth vertical lip lines.
- Nasolabial Folds: Soften the lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
- Marionette Lines: Reduce the appearance of lines that run from the corners of the mouth down to the chin.
- Under-Eye Hollows: Fill in the hollows under the eyes to reduce the appearance of dark circles and tiredness.
