What is facial balancing?

are biostimulators the same as filler?

Fillers (often hyaluronic acid) replace missing volume and shape instantly. Biostimulators (e.g., calcium hydroxyapatite or poly-L-lactic acid) stimulate your own collagen for gradual, longer-term improvement in firmness and fine lines.

Common areas include lips, cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, chin, jawline, and (select cases) under-eyes. Treatment plans are customized to facial anatomy and goals.

Fillers typically last 6–18 months depending on product, area, and metabolism. Biostimulators build collagen over 3–6 months and can last 1–2+ years with proper maintenance.

Our approach is conservative and anatomy-driven. We prioritize facial balance and natural proportions, often layering small amounts over time instead of doing everything at once.

Facial balancing is the use of dermal fillers to create harmony between features like the lips, cheeks, jawline, and chin. The goal is natural-looking proportions that enhance your unique features.

No. They don’t “fill” in the same way. They act as a scaffold to trigger your collagen, improving firmness and fine lines gradually—great for skin quality and subtle lift.

can i combine injectables with other treatments?

how do I know what I need- filler or a biostimulator?

Yes. Many patients pair filler/biostimulators with Botox (for expression lines) and CO₂ laser or Morpheus8 (for texture and tightening) for comprehensive, natural results.

If you need shape/contour now (e.g., lip border, cheek lift, jawline), filler is ideal. If your goal is skin quality and long-term firmness, a biostimulator may be better—or we might combine both.

Are there any under eye filler alternatives?
