Here is a bit of background on the injectable products we offer. Dermal Fillers are products such as Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, Bellafill, Belotero and Sculptra.  These products are used to treat fine lines, deeper wrinkles and areas of soft tissue atrophy.  They are most commonly used on the bottom 2/3’s of the face.  In general, they work by adding volume to the area where they are injected.  Dysport, Botox, and Xeomin are also injectable products used to treat wrinkles, but they work in a much different manner.  These products do not add volume; instead they deactivate the communication between the nerves and muscles in the area treated, so that the muscle action that causes the wrinkling is diminished.  Dysport, Botox, and Xeomin are primarily used on the wrinkles in the top 1/3 of the face. The results of dermal fillers are immediate and whereas the results of Dysport, Botox, and Xeomin take several days to appear.

As you are researching providers of dermal fillers and injectables in Salt Lake City and beyond, we think you will find that Portica Body and Face meets all of your injectable needs.

Bellafill – Bellafill is a semi permanent filler that provides wrinkle and volume correction for over 5 years. The unique microspheres work with your skin to produce collagen, which provides the support your skin needs for natural, long lasting results. Bellafill can be used to treat wrinkles and improve contour in multiple areas of the face.  Bellafill is an excellent choice to improve the contour and restore the youthful appearance to the under eye region. Dr. Allen has perfected the use of Bellafill in this region to obtain a natural, smooth, refreshed appearance. She uses special soft tipped needles for this area of the face, which dramatically help to minimize bruising and swelling.  Many patients leave the office with no signs that they have undergone injections, besides having a more youthful refreshed look. Dr. Allen is a Bella diamond provider for Bellafill and is in the top 1% of injectors in the nation!

Juvederm – Juvederm is a gel filler that helps to smooth out wrinkles in the nose and mouth area instantly for up to a year.  Juvederm has a smooth consistency and is well tolerated.

BEFORE AFTER

Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin – Botox, Dysport and Xeomin are three of the most popular injectables, and they have a wide variety of uses. They are most commonly used to treat wrinkles in the top third of the face. They create a smooth, relaxed appearance and last up to four months.  Both women AND men have seen wonderful, consistent results with these products.

BEFORE AFTER

Radiesse  – Another long-lasting injectable product, Radiesse immediately replenishes lost volume and lasts up to 18 months. Radiesse is an excellent choice for restoring volume in the mid and lower face.

BEFORE AFTER

Restylane- This is a safe and effective hyaluronic acid that restores volume and fullness to the skin, thus reducing moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds for a younger-looking you.

BEFORE AFTER

Belotero- Belotero helps smooth moderate-to-severe etched-in facial lines and wrinkles. It is a hyaluronic acid-based filler that lasts 6 months.

Sculptra – Sculptra works subtly and gradually over time for a more youthful-looking appearance. Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible synthetic substance that stimulates collagen production to help restore its inner structure and increase facial volume that has been lost to aging. It can be used to treat deep lines, creases, and folds to give a more youthful appearance.
