Wondering how your friends, coworkers, and favorite celebs seem to defy aging while you’re noticing more wrinkles reflecting back from your own bathroom mirror? Some people have incredible genes, but for the rest of us, beating the clock with the use of wrinkle-reducing injectables is what can make it look like we have them, too.
Being experienced with an array of dermal fillers and other wrinkle arrestors, Aesthetic Envy is the Sacramento area expert at taking years off your face and preventing them from sneaking up on you. And the only thing everyone will notice is how young you look.
Sure, there are many ways to age gracefully, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and a dedicated daily skincare routine, but their results take time. For a more dramatic effect, plastic surgery delivers rapid results but is also invasive and expensive.
Dermal fillers have become tremendously popular in recent years due to their effectiveness in sculpting the face and reducing signs of aging quickly, safely, and without downtime. Fillers are also versatile and affordable, not to mention significantly less painful than surgery.
The JUVÉDERM® family includes a range of specialized hyaluronic-acid-based fillers designed to treat the most common aging concerns in the face. JUVÉDERM® fillers come in a variety of consistencies so that each area being treated receives the right amount of correction and looks natural.
Different formulations are intended to either lift the cheeks, minimize vertical lip lines, smooth folds around the mouth and nose, or plump the lips. The results are immediate and long-lasting. Depending on which product is used, results can last up to one to two years. JUVÉDERM® is among the most popular nonsurgical cosmetic treatments.
Like JUVÉDERM®, Restylane® is a family of dermal fillers that use hyaluronic acid to diminish wrinkles, restore volume, and contour the face. Each Restylane® product is designed for a specific purpose. For example, softer, smoother formulas are ideal for restoring and enhancing the lips. More durable formulas excel when used for cheek augmentation and the correction of age-related midface volume loss. Restylane® injections begin to work almost immediately and last six to 18 months, depending on which product is used.
Maybe you were born with thin lips that have bothered you for years. Or maybe you’ve noticed a loss of volume in your lips as you’ve aged. In either case, an injectable filler like JUVÉDERM® or Restylane® can give your lips youthful, beautiful volume while defining your lip borders and cupid’s bow and minimizing the appearance of fine lines. At Aesthetic Envy, lip enhancement with dermal fillers is one of our specialties. The results of temporary lip fillers can be seen immediately after treatment, and in most cases, there is little or no downtime.
Dermal fillers can treat an array of cosmetic concerns without the risk, discomfort, and downtime of surgery. From diminished cheek volume to lackluster lips to deep creases stretching from the nose to the mouth, there’s a filler that can help. Determining which filler is suitable for your needs is best done under the guidance of a cosmetic specialist.

Dermal fillers are what they sound like injections that fill up space. The goal is to plump up facial skin, resulting in fewer wrinkles and shadows for an overall lifted look. Most brands of fillers use a form of hyaluronic acid, which dissolves into the deeper layers of the dermis over time. A side benefit includes the stimulation of natural collagen and elastin growth to reverse laxity on your own.
Wrinkle arrestors are made from botulinum toxin type A but vary in a few ways with differences in how they are used and formulated. Both can be used for different types of wrinkles around the eyes and forehead, which contain accessory proteins to help dispersion, created to deliver active ingredients without any extras.
Being unadulterated by helpers gives Xeo the possibility to prevent antibody resistance, something that may occur with users of botulinum toxin over a long period.
As for similarities, they’re both convenient, noninvasive treatments that can be administered in under an hour in the office. Both start working once they’re injected, but on average, their full effect may not be until about seven to 14 days after injection. And they’ve both been shown to last between 12 – 14 months. At your consultation, we’ll let you know what’s best for you to achieve your immediate and long-term results!

We understand that getting any cosmetic treatment is a personal choice. We provide the best support we can to meet your needs and want to work with you.
If you’re looking to use a dermal filler to combat signs of aging, your mid-20s is often an excellent time to start. That’s when your body begins to lose collagen, so you may want to begin prevention injections. Starting early, you’ll require less product than waiting until later, when you lose more volume and have deeper creases. The FDA has approved the use of dermal fillers for adults 21 and over.
No, not when you come to us! The experienced and trained professionals here at Aesthetic Envy in the Sacramento area perform your injections with your safety and long-term results in mind. Later, if you stop using dermal fillers, your results will eventually wear off, and the treated areas will return to their original state. Even then, your skin will appear improved due to halted aging during the time you use dermal fillers.
Aftеr dеrmal fillеrs expect minimal recovery. You may еxpеriеncе temporary swelling, bruising, tеndеrnеss, or redness at the injection sitе. Thеsе usually subside within a few days. Follow post-trеatmеnt instructions, avoid strеnuous activities, and consult your practitionеr for any concerns. Enjoy the immediate benefits of a rеfrеshеd appearance with little downtime.
Rеsults from dеrmal fillеrs typically last 6-18 months, depending on thе typе of fillеr usеd and individual factors. Maintenance trеatmеnts can help sustain thе effects. Enjoy thе rejuvenating bеnеfits for an ехtеndеd period, and consult your practitionеr for pеrsonalizеd advicе on optimizing and maintaining your dеsirеd look.
Yеs, fillеrs can be combined with neurotoxins for a comprehensive approach to facial rеjuvеnation. Fillеrs add volumе, whilе nеurotoxins likе BOTOX® addrеss dynamic wrinklеs, providing a harmonious and balancеd rеsult.
The best thing you can do to help your facial fillers last their longest is to follow all the aftercare instructions from your doctor. And when you start off, keep follow-ups in regular intervals about 12 weeks apart. After a few injections, you’ll be able to go longer between each appointment, and you’ll also see your skin creating more collagen, improving on its own.
Calcium hydroxylapatite and hyaluronic acid fillers typically last up to 12 months because their molecules are larger and easier to break down in the body.
Poly-L-lactic Acid produces gradual results by continuously stimulating the body to produce collagen that builds voluminization over time. Its effects can last up to 2 years.
Thick wrinkle fillers like Polymethyl methacrylate can last up to 5 years because their material is more resistant to break-down.
As we age, our skin thins and produces less collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. We also lose subcutaneous fat in our faces. These changes cause our skin to lose volume and elasticity, giving our face a more gaunt and hollow appearance and giving rise to wrinkles around our mouth, nose, and chin. These lines are visible regardless of whether our face is in motion or at rest. Injectable dermal fillers are gel-like substances designed to treat moderate to severe wrinkles of this type. Fillers can also be used to enhance the shape of the face, improve the size and proportion of specific features, add volume to the lips and cheeks, and even revitalize the backs of aging hands.
The most prevalent and popular dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA). HA is an incredible compound found in many different parts of the human body. In the skin, it plays a critical role in maintaining hydration, elasticity, and a youthful appearance. HA molecules are hydrophilic — meaning they attract and retain water — and can hold many times their own weight in water.
HA fillers essentially create an internal scaffolding that supports your skin. When they are injected into an area, they work beneath your skin to add volume where it is lacking naturally, particularly in creases and places where elasticity has diminished over time. The gel “fills in” the area underneath the skin and binds to water to create a plumping effect. The result is instantly smoother and more lifted skin.
4 common ingredients for dermal fillers are:
Soft tissue fillers are remarkably versatile. A skilled injector can use fillers to:
Dermal fillers should not be confused with other injectables, which are neuromodulators. Although these products are also injectables, they don’t fill, plump, or sculpt an area. Instead, neuromodulators work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause forehead furrows, crow’s feet, and vertical lines between the eyebrows. They are often used alongside fillers for complete nonsurgical facial rejuvenation.
There are many different dermal fillers currently on the market. All of them help to restore volume and minimize the appearance of facial lines, but they do so using different ingredients — such as hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, and poly-lactic acid.
Even within the category of hyaluronic acid fillers, there are many brands and formulations. Some fillers are available in “families,” which are collections of fillers designed to address different needs and different areas of the body. Selecting the right one for you depends on a combination of factors, including your skin concerns, your injector’s experience and preferences, and your budget.
At Aesthetic Envy, we carry the complete product lines of JUVÉDERM® and Restylane®. These families contain an exceptional variety of options, allowing us to thoroughly customize your treatment. For example, each filler is formulated with HA particles of different sizes. Larger particles tend to work well for supporting larger areas, like the cheeks, while smaller particles tend to excel at providing soft, natural results in areas like the lips. Products in a family also vary in consistency, cohesivity, moldability, and longevity. Your injector may recommend using several different fillers to achieve the best results from your treatment.
