Dermal fillers can be a viable option for many individuals who are seeking to reduce signs of age and enhance the appearance of their skin. For those looking to avoid surgery or further complement the results of surgical facial rejuvenation, dermal fillers may be an ideal solution. These non-surgical treatments can be performed right here at our practice, often in under an hour, and most patients are able to resume normal daily routines immediately following the treatment. Our board-certified plastic surgeon James M. Shaw, MD performs all injections himself, giving individuals the confidence of knowing they’re being treated by a highly qualified provider who specializes in aesthetics. His experienced team offers a full range of popular products in the JUVÉDERM® line and we can order a variety of other dermal filler brands upon request.
JUVÉDERM®
JUVÉDERM®’s signature product, along with many of the other products in the JUVÉDERM® family, is composed of hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that is natural to the human body. Allergy testing is typically not required before treatment. JUVÉDERM® is well-known for its ability to significantly minimize signs of fine lines and wrinkles in a variety of facial areas, and it can also be used to replenish volume to specific facial features for enhanced contours. Results often last up to six months and even longer for some patients.
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC is specifically designed to address volume loss in the cheeks and mid-facial area. This JUVÉDERM® product is unique as it is the first dermal filler of its kind to be approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. It can also fill in wrinkles or fine lines within the middle of the face while adding volume back to the cheeks. Additionally, JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC is known to be one of the longest-lasting dermal fillers available—some patients have experienced the results for as long as up to two years after a single treatment.
JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE™ XC
For severe signs of facial wrinkles, JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE™ may be the recommended treatment option. JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE™ can help reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds, which are sometimes described as “parentheses lines” between the nose and the mouth. The targeted areas can often appear smoother and softer, without looking unnatural. The results are often immediately noticeable and can last up to 18 months for many individuals.
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC
JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® XC is another product within the JUVÉDERM catalog that can help revitalize your skin and restore youthfulness. JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® is specifically tailored to treat fine lines around the mouth and to augment the lips. This product can add more defined contours and enhance volume, producing natural-looking results. Like virtually all other options in the JUVÉDERM® line, JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® is made of hyaluronic acid, a smoother composition that allows for a more seamless appearance. Most patients can experience outcomes of up to one year with this advanced dermal filler.

“Dr Shaw is just as skilled with a scalpel as he is with injections. So great to find a Dr who cared enough about his patients to do his own injections. Bonus is his ability to explain why he is doing what he does in a way I can understand.”
