Dermal & Lip Fillers
The cosmetic injectables and dermal fillers we offer at our Midland plastic surgery practice can reduce the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles, as well as restore lost facial volume for firmer, smoother skin. As we age, our natural collagen can deplete, causing our skin to crease and sag. Sometimes used as a non-invasive facelift alternative, dermal fillers can effectively plump features such as the cheeks or lips for a fuller and more contoured appearance. Some of our patients at Midland Plastic Surgery Center also use dermal fillers to augment their existing features for enhanced definition.
The Juvéderm® Family of Fillers
At Midland Plastic Surgery Center, we are committed to offering a wide range of dermal fillers to suit the diverse needs and aesthetic goals of our clients. Each filler in our collection has unique properties and benefits, making it crucial to understand their differences to choose the best option for your cosmetic enhancement. Our offerings include the Juvederm family of fillers — XC, Ultra, Vollure, and Voluma.
Juvéderm XC
For Smoothing and Softening
Juvéderm XC is designed to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines). This filler uses a smooth-consistency hyaluronic acid gel that mimics the naturally occurring substance in your skin. JUVÉDERM® XC is infused with lidocaine to improve comfort during treatment, providing results that can last up to one year.
Juvéderm Ultra
For a Versatile Application
Also composed of hyaluronic acid, JUVÉDERM® Ultra can be used to treat marionette lines around the chin in addition to the corners of the mouth and nasolabial folds. JUVÉDERM® Ultra can also effectively firm, fill, and smooth the tear trough area beneath the eyes for a more youthful and rested appearance. The added lidocaine in JUVÉDERM® Ultra can increase patient comfort during the treatment process, and results typically last four to six months or longer.
Juvéderm Vollure
For Long-Lasting Elegance
Juvéderm Vollure is a hyaluronic acid-based filler, specifically formulated for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. Its smooth and malleable consistency also makes it an excellent option for subtle lip enhancement. Vollure is designed to provide a soft, natural feel, making it ideal for clients seeking to add volume to their lips without the appearance of having work done.
​
Benefits of Vollure for Lips:
-
Natural Look and Feel: Vollure integrates smoothly into the tissue, ensuring that your lips maintain a natural look and feel, whether you're smiling, talking, or kissing.
-
Long-Lasting Results: Vollure can last up to 18 months, providing a longer duration of enhancement compared to some other fillers.
-
Versatility: While enhancing lip volume, Vollure can also smooth out perioral lines, providing a comprehensive rejuvenation of the mouth area.
Juvéderm Voluma
Volume and Plump
Juvéderm Voluma is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler specifically designed to restore lost facial volume to the cheeks and treat signs of mid-facial aging. With its smooth gel composition, Juvéderm Voluma can achieve exceptionally natural-looking results, lifting the cheeks and enhancing their contours. For patients seeking to combat the loss of facial volume and regain a more youthful appearance, the results of Juvéderm Voluma can last up to two years.
​
Though primarily used for cheek augmentation, Voluma's robust formulation makes it suitable for clients desiring more pronounced and contoured lips. Voluma is known for its ability to sculpt and shape, offering a more dramatic enhancement.
Benefits of Voluma for Lips:
-
Enhanced Volume and Shape: Perfect for clients looking for a significant volume boost and a more defined lip shape.

Durability: Voluma is known for its long-lasting results, maintaining lip fullness for up to 24 months.
