How Does a Liquid Facelift Work?
Using fillers such as Voluma, Restylane Lift, Radiesse, Belotero and Juvederm, Dr. Jacono creates a liquid facelift with a multi-layered, custom approach for each patient based on their specific goals and needs. Doctor Jacono does not overfill faces and is extremely conservative, adding less filler not more so that the result looks natural. Most of these fillers are made of Hyaluronic Acid and because of this they can be dissolved away and modified with an injected enzyme called Hyaluronidase.
For the smaller fine lines and wrinkles, Dr. Jacono will use a neurotoxin such as Botox or Dysport to block the muscles that cause the wrinkles to appear. This is usually done for areas of the face such as the brow, eyes, and lips.
Fillers have different supportive properties, this is called their “G prime”, it is a measure of their elastic properties. Fillers with a high “G prime” are more like jello and those with a low “G prime” are more like syrup. Fillers with higher “G prime” are Voluma, Restylane Lift and Radiesse, and the lower “G prime” are those like Juvederm. Areas that droop more significantly like the jowls along the jawline, cheeks, and deep hollows along under the eyes require high “G prime” fillers. They support and lift and are generally injected deeper into the face, over the cheek and jaw bones and in the deeper muscles. Nasolabial folds between the nose and corner of mouth, smile lines, and marionette lines from the corner of the mouth to the chin are more superficial folds and need a smoother filler that can blend them away which is a lower “G prime” filler. They are usually injected under the skin. Different fillers work better in different parts of the face. Generally Voluma, Restylane and Radiesse are better in the cheeks, Restylane and Belotero works better around the eyes, Juvederm works best for folds around the mouth.
