If you’re in search of a minimally invasive alternative to cosmetic surgery, long-lasting hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvéderm® and Restylane® may be able to make the changes you want to see. At Texas Skin Center in Houston, Pearland, Kingwood, Texas, Joseph Sedrak, MD, skillfully injects dermal fillers to boost volume, reduce wrinkles, and diminish scars.
Fillers are a popular injectable treatment in cosmetic medicine that can revamp several of your features to appear more youthful. They work by adding volume beneath your skin in targeted areas that have lost subdermal fat with age.
When you lose subdermal fat, your appearance changes slightly. Your facial contours may look subtly different than when you were younger. You might see more wrinkles, and certain areas might appear bonier. Fillers add temporary volume to these areas for more plumpness, a better shape, or better symmetry.

At Texas Skin Center, Dr. Sedrak works with you to form an individualized treatment plan using dermal fillers. He tells you which filler or fillers from the Juvéderm or Restylane line will work best to reach your goals.
As the results from your fillers eventually wear off, you can book additional rounds of injections to continue enjoying these adjustments. Dr. Sedrak injects small amounts of filler at a time to build up to natural-looking results.
