Dermal Injections For Skin Rejuvenation

Our spectrum of non-surgical appearance enhancements including cosmetic fillers have been designed to work harmoniously with the body’s natural chemical balances, while delivering optimal and long-lasting results. The Brisbane based River City Cosmetics’ range of advanced dermal injections and fillers offer temporary and semi-permanent rejuvenations of facial tissue with site specific precision.

Our state-of-the-art facility in Brisbane uses several types of dermal injections which offer patients good cosmetic treatment options. Our injectable products range from temporary to long lasting filler. We offer cosmetic fillers that lasts 1, 2, 3 and up to 4 years.

We use dermal injections to create balance and harmony in the facial muscles. Very often we combine dermal injections with dermal filler in order to get optimal facial relaxation and enhancement.

There are tree types of temporary fillers. They are all crystal clear gels, a substance that occurs naturally in our body. The filler holds water, hydrates and gives volume to the skin and induces fullness. The result is instantaneous and lasts up to 9 – 12 months or even longer. Due to differences in composition, each filler is designed and most effective for certain types of cosmetic corrections. These fillers are injected into the skin with a fine needle, and anaesthetic cream is usually applied prior to treatment. The fillers provide a natural and rejuvenated appearance by “filling in ” or “plumping up” facial wrinkles and folds, or when injected into the lips provide natural looking fullness and lip definition.

There are two types of semi-permanent fillers used in our clinic for facial soft tissue augmentation and contouring. One filler produces an instantaneous result while the other provides a more gradual result.

a) Next-generation Filler with Immediate Effects
This filer consists of a dense cream-like texture substance that provides immediate visible improvements. This filler gives long lasting results up to 2 years. Individual results may vary, affected by age, skin type, life style and muscle activity. This high density filler supports the skins’ natural integration and stimulates new tissue production. What is particularly remarkable is that a relatively small amount and usually one application of filler creates a superior level of contouring finesse giving excellent overall correction.

This filler provides an aesthetic solution for a range of common concerns such as:

• Moderate to deep wrinkles
• Furrows and scars
• Cheek/chin augmentations
• Nose reshaping or augmentation
• Adds volume to facial depressions or imperfections
• Hands rejuvenation

b) Skin Smoothing/Diffuse Volume Augmentation Product with Gradual Results
This type of semi-permanent product is a synthetic, non-animal product that contains skin smoothing micro particles to help restore lost facial volume, and lifts and smoothes sagging skin. The filler works by stimulating your own tissue and elastin production to replenish your skin and restore what has been lost due to the ageing process. It also significantly improves overall skin quality and texture. Usually 2 or 3 treatments are required a month apart and results last up to 3 years. Natural looking effects should become more noticeable after six weeks of the initial treatment.

This product is ideal for:

• Replacing lost volume caused by ageing
• Deep folds and wrinkles
• Scars
• Volume defects
• Facial contour enhancements
• Improves skin appearance
• Improves skin freshness and smoothes skin texture
• Hand rejuvenation
