Tendency Toward Natural Fillers

Valentine Hint from Hollywood

Dr. Marcus has for years been warning patients against using permanent fillers for the lips.  “They are great for a short while, but then most of then scar and shorten.  This creates an unnatural look and feel.”  Seems that Hollywood has finally caught up.  The latest reports out of Tinsel Town show the same tendency away form permanent fillers to temporary solutions like Restylane and a patient’s own fat.  Botox can also be used to soften the lines around the mouth.  Under-correction for naturalness is the trend.

Sabrina Speer RN at Dr. Marcus’ office is an expert at natural lip fillers and Botox.  Fat grafts are a procedure that Dr. Marcus performs under local anesthesia.
