As our skin ages, the dermis gradually loses its major components, such as collagen and elastin. Dermal fillers are prescription gel substances that can smooth wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of aging when injected properly into the face. Both men and women consider dermal fillers when they want to correct minor skin imperfections. This is an in-office procedure without the need for invasive surgery. There is minimal downtime or recovery period.
Dr. Demetri offers the following dermal fillers & injectables:
Dr. Demetri believes it is best to undergo subtle and natural changes to your face. Hyaluronic acid based fillers and neuromodulators like botox can be used to reduce wrinkles, lines and folds. Overall, they can help restore a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance to the face.
“Dr. Arnaoutakis is an extremely professional, talented and approachable physician. I am a 60 year old woman who is dealing with the normal symptoms of facial aging, such as, frown lines, forehead wrinkles, crows feet and loss of volume in the cheeks and lips. Initially, I felt uncomfortable talking about these issues, having many fears and concerns. Dr A. quickly put me a ease and immediately seemed to how I could best benefit from these procedures. He chose a combination of botox and Juvederm (dermal filler). For example, I have been unhappy with the loss of volume around my cheekbones, Dr. Arnaoutakis determined that my face actually was not symmetrical. He explained that the left cheek did not have the same volume as the right cheek. He injected Juvederm into the left side and it made an immediate difference. He is very gifted in determining how to create facial symmetry. For my frown lines and forehead wrinkles he injected botox. He is excellent at determining where to safely inject the botox to have maximum impact.This procedure significantly reduced wrinkles in a very natural way. Lastly, my lips have always been very small, but have decreased in size with age. I was afraid to have filler injected because I didn’t want to end up with “duck” lips. Dr. A. assured me that he would only inject a small amount of Juvederm into the upper and lower lips and that they would look proportionate.He did not disappoint. I am very pleased with my lips. They look so natural and I actually have enough volume to put on lipstick! Thank you, Dr. Arnaoutakis!!”
