With facial aging, there comes a point where our body is metabolizing tissue faster than we are creating it. This leads to a volume deficit in the layers of the skin and facial tissue. Dynamic movement in the muscles of our face, like frowning, causes creasing in the skin which over time leads to a wrinkle.
As we age we also lose significant volume in the face. This leads to hollowed cheeks, jowls, and folds around the mouth and lower face. Volume replacement and decreasing dynamic movement are the two main functions of our injectable treatments.
Radiance consults with you before any facial filler treatment. We offer many different molecular weights of fillers that are able to address the specific areas of lost volume in the face. When injected properly filler should not be able to be seen. Fillers can also be used to help plump thin lips, enhance shallow contours, soften facial creases, remove fine wrinkles and improve the appearance of recessed scars.
Choosing Radiance for Fillers
Dermal fillers have been proven to be a safe and effective non-invasive wrinkle treatment. These fillers are widely available but it’s important to remember that they are still a medical procedure; choosing a trusted medical spa with trained and qualified staff is essential. The Radiance team is ready to give you the youthful look of your dreams with your safety and esthetic goals always in mind.

The RHA® Collection is our newest family of fillers. Resilient Hyaluronic Acid (HA) technology specifically designed for facial dynamics gives you a beautiful, natural result at rest and in motion. It adapts to your dynamic facial movements. Four different designer formulations allow us to cater to your unique vision, from smoothing delicate lipstick lines to minimizing creases to adding volume for deeper wrinkles and folds. Results last up to 15 months.
JUVÉDERM®
JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC
JUVÉDERM® ULTRA PLUS XC is a gel that hydrates and delivers nutrients to the skin and acts as a cushioning agent to smooth wrinkles and folds, especially around the nose and mouth. It restores fine facial lines and plumps the lips. Results are instant and can last one year on average.
JUVÉDERM® Vollure® XC
JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE® XC softens moderate to severe parentheses lines and wrinkles by adding volume to the lines and wrinkles around your nose and mouth to produce subtle and long-lasting results for up to 18 months.
JUVÉDERM® Voluma® XC
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC injectable gel is the first and only filler FDA-approved to instantly add volume to the cheek area. It gives you a subtle lift, helping to restore contour and a more youthful profile, for up to 2 years.
JUVÉDERM® Volbella® XC
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC is the first and only FDA-approved filler proven to increase lip fullness and soften the appearance of vertical lip lines for up to 1 year.
JUVÉDERM® Facial Fillers that have an “XC” designation have a small amount of lidocaine mixed with the JUVÉDERM® product. The lidocaine works to immediately numb the treated area, significantly reducing pain from injections and eliminating the need for a separate topical pain reliever.
BELOTERO BALANCE®
BELOTERO BALANCE® is a dermal filler specially designed to integrate into your skin and mold to your distinct facial contours. By adapting to the individuality of your skin, it softens lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth for smooth and natural results that are uniquely you.
KYBELLA®
KYBELLA® is the only FDA-approved injectable to treat the fatty area under your chin (“double chin”). The active ingredient occurs naturally in the body. It destroys fat cells and, once destroyed, these cells can no longer store fat. This means, once you get the desired results, no ongoing treatment is needed.
Typically, 2 – 3 treatments are needed, spaced about 6 weeks apart.
