What are dermal fillers?

Fulfill Your Beautiful Potential

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Made primarily with hyaluronic acid—a substance naturally found in the skin—dermal fillers are particularly effective for adding volume to areas like the cheeks, lips, and around the mouth. At Elizabeth MD, we use the RHA Collection of fillers, which are known for their long-lasting results and ability to adapt to facial movements, delivering beautiful, natural-looking results.

RHA® Redensity

RHA® Redensity is the newest addition to the RHA Collection, specifically designed for treating fine, superficial lines around the lips and mouth, such as vertical lip lines. With a soft, lightweight formula, it provides subtle volume and smooths delicate areas, delivering a natural finish that blends seamlessly with facial movement.

RHA® 2

RHA® 2 is formulated for mild to moderate wrinkles, offering soft, resilient support for areas that experience frequent movement, such as around the mouth and lips. Its gentle consistency provides a soft, elegant enhancement, ideal for subtle refinement.

RHA® 3

RHA® 3 is designed to address moderate to severe facial wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines. With a medium consistency, it provides balanced support and flexibility, allowing it to smooth deeper lines while adapting to natural expressions.

RHA® 4

RHA® 4 is the most robust filler in the RHA Collection, perfect for adding structure and volume to areas like the cheeks and jawline that require deeper support. With its high viscosity, RHA® 4 effectively restores youthful contours and provides a sculpted appearance that maintains its resilience in areas with less dynamic movement.

Precision and Care  in Every Step

What is the dermal procedure like?

The dermal filler procedure is quick and minimally invasive, making it an ideal choice for those seeking immediate improvement with little downtime.

Your injector will apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area to ensure your comfort. Once the skin is numb, the filler is gently injected into targeted areas using a fine needle. The RHA Collection’s unique hyaluronic acid formulation integrates smoothly into the skin, adapting to your natural expressions for seamless results. The entire procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes, allowing you to quickly get back to your day with a refreshed look.

A Touch of Radiance

What conditions do dermal fillers address?

Dermal fillers are highly effective for a range of facial concerns, including:

  • Nasolabial Folds and Marionette Lines: Smooths deep lines around the mouth, softening smile lines for a youthful appearance.
  • Thin Lips and Lip Contours: Enhances lip volume and definition, creating fuller, more shapely lips.
  • Static and Dynamic Wrinkles: Fills in static wrinkles caused by age and softens dynamic wrinkles, like vertical lip lines, that appear with facial movement.
  • Cheek Volume and Contours: Adds volume to cheeks, restoring youthful fullness and balanced facial proportions.
  • Acne Scars and Minor Imperfections: Reduces the appearance of acne scars and other skin irregularities, creating a smoother, more even complexion.
