At Bare Lux Studio, we provide FDA-approved dermal fillers, including:
Both filler types add facial volume, smooth wrinkles, and restore facial contours. Dermal filler treatment is safe, non-invasive, and requires little to no downtime.
Hyaluronic Acid-Based Fillers
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers use a natural sugar (hyaluronic acid) found in the body to add volume and smooth shallow wrinkles. When injected, the filler instantly plumps the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Hyaluronic acid’s water-attracting property ensures continued hydration and long-lasting results, giving you a natural and rejuvenated look.
Poly-L-Lactic Acid Fillers (Sculptra)
Poly-L-lactic acid fillers, commonly known as Sculptra, are synthetic materials injected into the skin to treat deep wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. Once injected, Sculptra fillers break down into smaller particles that stimulate the production of collagen, a protein that gives the skin its structure and elasticity. The results of Sculptra filler treatment can last for up to 5 years (average 24 months), but may not last as long in people who smoke or have certain medical conditions. Sculptra fillers are generally well-tolerated.
Radiesse Fillers
Radiesse is a versatile filler that works immediately to restore volume through a gel carrier. It also gradually stimulates collagen through calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres which stimulate the body’s collagen-producing cells called fibroblasts. Radiesse not only restores volume but also improves the skin's overall quality and texture. The duration of Radiesse results can vary, depending on factors like individual metabolism, but averages 12-18 months.
Before the procedure, we conduct a thorough consultation to understand your goals and medical history. Our Physician injector will then determine if dermal fillers are suitable for you and create a personalized treatment plan. After the procedure, you may experience mild bruising or swelling, which typically subsides within a few days. Rest assured, we will provide you with post-treatment care instructions to ensure optimal results.
