As we age, many of us begin to notice subtle changes in our appearance. Cheeks may appear less full, fine lines become more noticeable, lips lose some of their definition, and the skin may not have the same youthful support it once did. These changes are a completely natural part of ageing and with today’s latest trends, techniques and treatments, our experienced injecting team can help restore, rejuvenate and refresh.
For our patients who want to look refreshed without looking as though they’ve had work done, dermal fillers are an excellent option. The key, however, is choosing an injector who can suggest the right product, the right location, and a treatment approach that respects your natural features.
In a society where information is at our finger tips, it can become overwhelming which is why at Cosmedica Aesthetics, we have narrowed down our filler portfolio options to one solitary brand that truly delivers a full spectrum of results for a variety of needs and treatment goals. At Cosmedica Aesthetics, we believe the best results are the ones people notice without necessarily knowing why you look so good. And when it comes to a natural-looking approach to facial rejuvenation, Teoxane is a particularly compelling option to achieve this.
What Are Dermal Fillers, and Why Consider Them After 40?
Most modern dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in the body that helps maintain hydration and contributes to skin volume.
As we age, changes in facial fat, bone structure, collagen, and skin elasticity can affect the way our faces look.
You may be looking to:
- Restore subtle volume in the cheeks.
- Soften the appearance of lines around the mouth.
- Improve lip definition without dramatically increasing lip size.
- Refresh the lower face while maintaining your natural facial contours.
- Achieve a rested, healthy appearance without an overfilled look.
The goal isn’t and shouldn’t be to erase every line or recreate your younger face. It’s to support your features in a way that looks harmonious, balanced, and authentically you.
Understanding the Three Leading Dermal Filler Brands
Not all dermal fillers are created in exactly the same way. Although Teoxane, Juvéderm, and Restylane all offer hyaluronic acid fillers, their formulations, product ranges, and individual characteristics differ. Our nurse injectors have decades of experience and have worked with all these brands, so they are knowledgeable and confident in the product recommendations that they make to their patients.
1. Teoxane: The Art of Natural-Looking Movement
Teoxane is a Swiss aesthetic medicine company known for its RHA® range, developed with the goal of adapting to the dynamic demands of facial movement.
Why does this matter?
Your face is constantly moving. You smile, laugh, talk, raise your eyebrows, and express emotion throughout the day. A natural-looking filler result should take those movements into account and be respectful towards your anatomy, rather than simply adding volume.
Teoxane’s RHA technology is designed to preserve the properties of hyaluronic acid while allowing the gel to adapt to the stresses associated with facial expression. Depending on the product selected, this can make the range particularly interesting for patients who want facial rejuvenation that looks soft and harmonious in motion as well as at rest.
Why we particularly like Teoxane for our patients:
- A natural-looking philosophy: Treatment can focus on restoring balance and softening signs of ageing rather than creating dramatic changes.
- A versatile product portfolio: The range includes different formulations designed for different indications, allowing a qualified injector to tailor treatment to the area and desired result.
- A European heritage: Teoxane was founded in Geneva, Switzerland, and has developed a strong presence in aesthetic medicine.
- An emphasis on facial dynamics: Its RHA range is designed with the moving face in mind, an important consideration when treating expressive areas.
-
Options for personalised treatment: Different filler skews within the line up can be selected according to tissue characteristics, facial anatomy, and the treatment plan.
For the woman who wants to look refreshed rather than noticeably treated, Teoxane offers a thoughtful approach to modern filler treatment.
The most beautiful result isn’t necessarily the one that adds the most volume. It’s the one that preserves your expressions, respects your proportions, and leaves you looking like the best version of yourself.
2. Juvéderm: Versatile Options for Volume and Definition
Juvéderm, part of the Allergan Aesthetics portfolio, is one of the best-known names in hyaluronic acid fillers and is the brand that many clients come in asking for. It’s range includes products designed for different facial areas and aesthetic goals.
Juvéderm may be considered for lip enhancement, cheek volume, facial contouring, and the correction of certain lines and folds. Different formulations offer different characteristics, giving experienced injectors options for tailoring treatment.
While Juvederm has been around for many years and possesses the backing of tried and true, it’s ability to appear flawless post injection just doesn’t quite hit the mark for our injectors which is why we refer patients to looking at Teoxane.
3. Restylane: A Range Designed for Different Facial Needs
Restylane, developed by Galderma, is another established hyaluronic acid filler family with a variety of products for different aesthetic indications.
These products may be used to address concerns such as lip enhancement, facial folds, and cheek volume. Its portfolio gives practitioners different gel options, from super stiff and rigid for jawlines to watery and hydrating for tear troughs.
Again, with the history and experience our nurses have, Restylane is not able to take over the place of our beloved Teoxane line up that can achieve your goals and treatment aspirations.
At Cosmedica Aesthetics, we pride ourselves on having extensive training and industry leading techniques. We constantly adapt and pivot to ensure we are able to meet the needs and goals of our existing and future clients.
