Restylane Filler
Hyaluronic Acid fillers are reversible fillers that are used to volumize areas with decreased fat, collagen, or bone. They are also used to correct asymmetries. Method Medspa uses the Restylane line of filler. Our injectors love the variety of textures found in this line, providing treatment options for different face shapes and skin types. Method injectors love facial balancing! If you’re not sure where to start, book a METHOD consult to discuss full facial balancing or volumizing of a specific area.
-
Clients with targeted or generalized volume loss due to decreased fat, bone, or collagen; or related to a preexisting asymmetry. Method injectors love to treat areas with subtle signs of aging like the temples and chins, as well as higher impact areas like cheeks and lips.
Restylane filler is not used in pregnant or breastfeeding women.
-
A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure, and it works wonders! Ice packs and vibratory distraction devices are also used. Certain areas of the face may be more sensitive than others.
-
Apply ice to the area for the first 12 hours. Swelling and bruising are normal for 7 days, but Arnica Montana tablets can help. Avoid blood thinners immediately following injection. Tylenol can be taken to decrease discomfort. Take cold sore medication as prescribed if you are prone to cold sores. Call your injector with any questions or concerns.
Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin can be injected in a different part of the face from filler in the same appointment, but we recommend spacing out injection in the same area by 2 weeks (for example, you can get lip filler and forehead Botox in the same day, but not lip filler and a lip flip).
-
Depending on the part of the face injected, the product used, and some metabolic factors of the individual, Restylane filler lasts 6-18 months.
Certain areas (like the lips) are limited in how much filler they can hold. If you have had filler injected in the same area multiple times, you may need to have it dissolved and then re-filled. Filler dissolving should be performed at least 2 weeks before injecting with filler again. Schedule a METHOD consult with one of our injectors to discuss.

Sculptra
Sculptra is a biostimulator, which means it causes your body to create its own collagen in areas of lost volume. Since it increases collagen production, it has the added benefit of improving skin texture and tone, along with increasing fullness where you want it. Sculptra is quickly becoming a favorite of Method clients because of its subtle, naturally refreshing results with minimal downtime.
-
Clients who are noticing lines, volume loss, and generalized signs of aging - but feel nervous about appearing unnatural or overdone with filler. Sculptra tightens skin tone, fills in lines and wrinkles, and provides a strong structure to the tissue to offer an overall more youthful appearance. Method injectors love it for subtle areas like the temples and neck, as well as higher impact areas like the cheeks and nasolabial folds.
Sculptra is not used in pregnant or breastfeeding women.

A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure, and it works wonders! Ice packs and vibratory distraction devices are also used. While you may feel some discomfort around specific areas of the face, you shouldn’t be in pain.
-
Apply ice to the area for the first 12 hours. Swelling and bruising are can occur in the first 7 days, but Arnica Montana tablets can help. Avoid blood thinners immediately following injection. Tylenol can be taken to decrease discomfort. Take cold sore medication as prescribed if you are prone to cold sores. Call your injector with any questions or concerns.
Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin can be injected in a different part of the face from Sculptra in the same appointment, but we recommend spacing out injection in the same area by 2 weeks.
-
Results from Sculptra take anywhere from 6 weeks to 4 months to see, because your body is gradually building its own collagen. The skin quality results will be visible before the volume changes. Most clients will need 2-3 treatments, spaced apart by about 4-6 weeks. Results last 2+ years.
