Aesthetic medicine / Filler

Over a lifetime sun exposure, stress, gravity and other factors may cause skin sagging and make it look wilted.

Some areas of the face and neck, especially around the mouth and jaw, are more susceptible to aging.

Although these changes are gradual, wrinkles and other signs of aging can make you look older than you really are.

Fillers have a temporary effect (they last a few months), but they are a very simple procedure that can be done in under an hour. Unlike surgery no anesthesia is required, no stitches or hospitalization. They fill emptied faces, reduce folds and wrinkles and give you a more youthful appearance.

What are fillers?

Fillers are biocompatible materials. Injected into the face they make the skin look relaxed and firm. Hyaluronic acid are the most frequently used fillers. Hyaluronic acid is present in the body and is completely natural. Dr. Borra uses various fillers for different purposes by choosing the best material for each zone that must be treated.

Why would you want a filler treatment?

To take care of your skin

Hyaluronic acid is the skin matrix. After thirty’s skin produces less hyaluronic acid, but its absorption is constant: it has therefore an overall depletion of hyaluronic acid and skin starts to ruin. Dr. Borra can remedy with hyaluronic acid fillers. He will use enough dose filler for the best results to regain the skin of a time.

To remove wrinkles

It can be a very simple reason, removal of wrinkles. You’re not alone, because it is the main reason why we resort to fillers. If this is your case, Dr. Luca Borra can help you decide exactly which wrinkles you want removed and how.

Slimming

Weight loss will change the shape and volume of your face. If you’ve lost weight and your cheeks are emptied, fillers will help you to get back in shape.

Value the high points of your face

You may want to increase the cheekbones or cheeks. In other cases you dream of a less receding chin or a major jaw. In any case Dr. Borra will advise you which treatment is most suitable for the purpose.

A natural treatment

With hyaluronic acid you cannot worry: it’s obtained in pure and sterile laboratory, identical to what’s in your skin.

Asymmetry

You have a side of the face that’s different from the other: filler can help you get more symmetry.

How does it work?

Injections

Dr. Borra uses this classic technique to treat younger and fine wrinkles. The filler is injected into the dermis under wrinkles.

Tri site bolus

Dr. Borra uses this technique to make a lifting without surgery of the lower eyelid and cheek by injecting targeted and small quantities of filler that raise a withered eye area and reduce the bags.

Flooring

Dr. Borra cleverly creates different layers of hyaluronic acid, they are very thin in order to obtain excellent results on wrinkles and furrows that surround the mouth, or nasolabial folds.

Pyramidal

Like a true artist Dr. Borra restores your skin’s structure working from the depths to the surface. At first he creates a base in depth, then traces vertical lines of hyaluronic acid that connect it to a thin, uniform layer on the surface. Dr. Borra then creates a 3D network of hyaluronic acid that strengthens and supports the skin.

Microcannulas

With microcannulas Dr. Borra produces under the skin a hyaluronic acid mask that moisturizes and supports; Dr. Borra has renamed this technique Liquid Face Lift. Fillers are injected at key points to define the oval and cheeks with a layer application. He works on the line along the jaw to give definition to the oval. The neck is treated to remove wrinkles of the Venus collar. The result is a total lifting. The obtained subcutaneous deposit of hyaluronic acid, uniform and very thin, is transferred to the skin 24 hours a day in order to regenerate it.

Where does it work?

Fillers are used in various ways in the face. Dr. Borra was a forerunner of these treatments because he injected his first hyaluronic acid filler in 1998, when it was only used to enhance the lips. It is now used in many areas, such as:

Wrinkles

Wherever wrinkles are on your face, fillers can solve the problem.

Cheekbones and cheeks

With his experience dr. Borra injects just the right amount of filler to obtain a natural result so that it will look well proportioned to the rest of the face. Big cheeks are a bit ‘controversial, but the right volume gives a young and fresh look.

Lips

The most popular treatment. Dr. Borra overlooks nothing of what you need where it is needed. Sometimes he works on the contour and on the filter (the two creases from the nose to the upper lip). Other times he works on the edge and the corners of the lips to rotate them a bit ‘up or down. He doesn’t forget little wrinkles around the mouth which would look out of place.

Earlobes

Non-surgical rhinoplasty and oval

More and more patients are informed about the chances that aesthetic medicine offers to enhance your profile without resorting to surgery or implants. With the experience and the hand of a plastic surgeon, Dr Borra can perform a surgery free profile-plasty, combining nose filler injections and chin augmentation. He starts from the nose injecting small amounts of rinofiller directly on the sides of the nasal dorsum. He reduces the hump of the nose, filling the space around it. The technique gives proportion to the back and the tip and is also effective for any imperfect results of rhinoplasty (adhesions, irregularity, asymmetry).

Temples and orbit

Emptied temples give you a sick aspect: no problem, fillers are the perfect solution.

Body
