At Carr Dermatology, we the following types of wrinkles fillers:
- Radiesse

Radiesse consists of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in an injectable gel. This product has a firmer consistency and is often used in areas where the skin is thicker. It corrects moderate to severe lines and wrinkles.
Sculptra is unique. It is injected to stimulate natural collagen production. Sculptra is suitable for patients who want to restore volume that has been lost naturally and slowly. Several injections are needed but the results are long-lasting.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are increasingly popular, especially for those just entering the world of fillers. Hyaluronic acid exists naturally in the skin, but breaks down with age. These fillers are soft and malleable. We utilize Juvéderm, Restylane, and Belotero.
Depending on the product used, results may last 9-18 months. Patients can now fill lines and wrinkles or add volume to areas that are lacking. Age gracefully with facial dermal fillers. Contact our Sugar Land, TX office to schedule your appointment with Dr. Carr. Call (281) 494-0034.
