It’s Easy to See...
Why Injectable Fillers are So Popular

Each time you squint, smile, frown, or speak, you stress your skin.
In addition, sun, free radicals, heredity, weight fluctuations and
hormonal changes all break down the tiny support fibers in your skin. Eventually, lines appear. Fortunately, injectable fillers help enormously
by filling in indentations and troughs created by time, movement
and the environment.

On your first visit, Dr. Duffy will evaluate your skin, take a medical history and discuss the merits of the various products and possible side effects with you. Certain types of lines and scars can be treated. Some cannot. Each face is different in terms of what should be used, how much will be needed and where. We begin with a “smart” evaluation. The doctor may watch you as you speak to see how your movements affect line formation. Or he may stretch the wrinkle or palpate it to feel for corrugations. Soft U-shaped wrinkles plump up nicely with fillers. Rigid
V-shaped lines or sharp pits won’t. They will need to be buffed out using the laser or other ablative methods. Sometimes, particularly with patients over 30, Dr. Duffy will use suggest Botox in combination with an injectable filler to stave off deepening of the line. You will receive comprehensive after-care instructions.

Lip Augmentation

In addition to filling lines and scars, injectable fillers are used to give lips a fuller, more youthful contour. Injectable fillers are arguably the most popular procedure today.

As always, Dr. Duffy’s extensive clinical experience and skilled injection technique will help you get your best result.
