Fillers

The Safe Cosmetic Alternative Is Here…

Collagen Treatments

583040.jpgLooking to retain a youthful appearance? Until now, the only way to make that vision a reality was with bovine (cow) collagen injections, which can cause allergic reactions, or synthetic fillers that feel unnatural.

Now, Cosmetic Enhancement Center of New England can provide a safe, natural alternative to synthetic and bovine tissue fillers with CosmoDerm, CosmoPlast and Sculptra.

CEC of New England uses six different types of procedures - call for a FREE consultation to determine which would work best for you.

Cosmoderm® and Cosmoplast®

Cosmoderm® and Cosmoplast® are the first FDA approved human collagen fillers commercially available. They are purified from human dermal cells and manufactured in the strictest controlled environment. These natural products are for the treatment of wrinkles, acne scars, other soft-tissue contour deficiencies as well as for lip enhancement. Unlike other collagen replacement products, CosmoDerm and CosmoPlast do not require a pretreatment skin test.

By supplementing your skin’s own collagen with CosmoDerm and/or CosmoPlast collagen, we can smooth out wrinkles and most scars. We can also improve the appearance of deeper frown lines and nasal furrows. Collagen injections are a safe, effective, time-tested, non-surgical wrinkle treatment that provides immediate results.

Restylane

583066a.jpgFacial wrinkles and creases begin to appear as the underlying collagen and elastin fibers begin to break down and wear out. While this breakdown is part of the natural aging process, it can also result from excessive squinting, frowning and smiling. Until recently, the most frequently used material for filling facial wrinkles and frown lines was injectable collagen. However, collagen injections aren’t for everyone. A very small percentage of patients are allergic to bovine collagen.

Now a natural product can help you meet your goals without fear of an allergic reaction. This synthetic, bio-degradable hyaluronic acid that forms both Restylane and Perlane(r) has been used in Europe for years.

Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. The procedure is minimally invasive with no downtime. In addition, unlike bovine collagen, Restylane does not require an allergy test, so treatment can be done immediately.

Juvederm Ultra Plus™

Radiesse®

Captique

Captique is a non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler and the newest HA filler to enter the U.S. market. It is indicated for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds). Captique is injected just under the skin¹s surface to replenish volume lost during the aging process.

Sculptra®

Sculptra® is an injectable product that restores and corrects the signs of facial fat loss by replacing lost volume. Sculptra® provides an increase in skin thickness, helping to create a more natural facial appearance in those with facial lipoatrophy. Sculptra® is composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a synthetic material.

Sculptra® is not made from human or animal sources and does not require a skin test. Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is a biocompatible (does not harm the body), biodegradable (able to be broken down by the body) material that has been widely used for many years in surgical products. The effects are long-lasting; they were shown in a clinical study to last for up to 2 years after the first treatment session.
