Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are used to enhance our client’s beautiful features and help restore volume in areas where volume has been lost. Most of the fillers used at Picasso Medical Aesthetics are made of hyaluronic acid with the exception of Radiesse which is a calcium-based product. Most fillers can last anywhere from 9-12 months based on the client’s lifestyle. For clients who smoke, sunbathe, exercise heavily, or drink daily fillers may not last the full 9-12 months.
Radiesse
The best solution for erasing lines and folds is to replace lost structure with immediate volume. RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler works immediately so the results are instant. Once injected, RADIESSE Volumizing Filler adds the volume and lift needed to diminish the signs of aging.
What makes RADIESSE truly unique is the ability of the product to act as a scaffold under the skin, providing structure and stimulating your own natural collagen to grow.
The production of natural collagen continues for several months, which extends beyond the initial effect of RADIESSE Volumizing Filler. Best of all, the natural results are clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients, which means more value from each treatment and long-lasting results.
Belotero
Belotero is 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.
The versatility of the product makes it strong enough to handle deep areas such as nasolabial folds (smile lines around the mouth), yet soft enough to treat more delicate areas such as vertical lip lines (thin lines that appear above the lip line).
Restylane
Restylane® is a popular cosmetic filler used to provide improvement in the appearance of facial lines, wrinkles, and folds. It is designed to reconstitute skin volume that has been lost during the aging process.

Minimal discomfort - Versa contains lidocaine, an anesthetic that minimizes discomfort during and after the procedure.

Sculptra
What is it used for?
Sculptra gradually helps restore your skin foundation, with results seen as early as 1 month after treatment and lasting up to 2 years, revealing natural-looking firmness and improved skin quality. 95% of patients had improved skin glow 2 years after Sculptra treatment.
Where can it be injected?
Sculptra is a collagen stimulator that helps to repair the underlying structure of the skin. This adds fullness to the face and diminishes the appearance of any wrinkles and fine lines. Sculptra is most commonly injected to reduce the appearance of smile lines, marionette lines, and wrinkles around the chin.
Benefits of treatment
Sculptra offers long-lasting results compared to other facial fillers, making it the ideal solution for patients looking for a longer-lasting youthful appearance. Sculptra's results can last up to two years, which helps to minimize the amount of time and money spent on touch-ups and life interference.
Neuromodulators
Neuromodulators are used to decrease muscle movement by blocking communication between the nerve endings and the muscles. This decrease in muscle movement will lead to decreased expression lines in the areas being treated. There is currently 4 neuromodulators in the market: Botox, Dysport, Jeaveau, and Xeomin. After placement of the neuromodulator product best results will be noticed at about 2 weeks post treatment. Most results last about 3-4 months.
botox
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily make moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet & forehead lines look better. Such dynamic wrinkles are caused by contractions of the delicate underlying facial muscles that occur every time you smile, laugh or frown.
Lines that are caused can give people a tired, angry or sad appearance – even when they aren't necessarily experiencing those emotions. While you may have earned every one of your worry lines, you don't have to show them anymore.
One 10-minute treatment, involving a few tiny injections, and within days there's a noticeable improvement which can last up to 4 months.
Smile. Laugh. Frown. Make all the facial expressions you want and stop worrying about wrinkles!
Dysport
Dysport is the trade name for type-A botulinum toxin. Dysport is the only FDA approved and a most recent competitor to Botox, which also utilizes the type-A botulinum toxin, but is more concentrated than Dysport. Side effects are similar between the two facial injectables.
They both relax the muscles that are responsible for causing facial wrinkles and fine lines.
Dysport was approved for use in the United States in May 2009 though it has been in use in other countries for many years. Initially, Dysport was only approved for cosmetic use to treat the lines between the eyebrows, which are known as "frown lines". but has now been approved for usage on the neck bands, forehead, crow's feet and around the mouth with nice, natural-looking results.
Dysport helps smooth the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows without changing the look or movement of the rest of your face.
Xeomin
Botulinum toxin type A, a protein purified from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. – which is the active ingredient in XEOMIN® – is used in facial aesthetic treatment to treat dynamic lines like glabellar frown lines. It acts on nerve endings in muscles to prevent muscle fibers from contracting. By reducing these contractions, XEOMIN® can temporarily reduce the frown lines on your forehead between your eyes.
Xeomin is made through a unique precision manufacturing process which removes the accessory proteins which makes this product a purified neurotoxins.
When you squint or frown, the muscles between your brows contract, causing the skin to furrow and fold. These lines that occur due to facial mimics are referred to as dynamic lines.
Over time, as your skin ages and loses some of its elasticity, these repeated contractions can cause persistent frown lines.
