There are many options for the patient wishing to refill and reshape their face. No one FDA approved filler can be all things to all patients. It is of critical importance to consult with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon with years of experience and a reputation for excellence. Dr Mary Lupo is an acknowledge leader, teacher, and innovator in utilizing a combination of fillers to improve the aging face without surgery. Dr Lupo often combines different fillers in the same patient, and complements the benefit with the addition of Botox and laser or peel treatments.
Since the early 1980’s was the gold standard for 20 years, it was improved in 2003 to a smoother, non-bovine collagen that no longer required allergy testing prior to treatment. Although it is the most short-lived filler, it is still useful for a quick fix because of decreased risk of bruising and swelling. Thin enough for fine line correction without lumping. Dr Lupo did a teaching video in early 1990’s for Collagen Corp to teach proper technique to physicians.
