Perlane® in Virginia Beach

facial features like the chin, cheeks andPerlane is a long-lasting, injectable gel dermal filler that can be injected beneath the skin to replenish lost volume and help diminish fine lines. Virginia Beach plastic surgeon Dr. Choe performs the Perlane injections himself at The Choe Center. Perlane is ideal for treating deep facial wrinkles or folds like the nasolabial folds or smile lines, restoring volume to sunken cheeks, augmenting facial features like the chin, cheeks, and jawline, and plumping the lips. It may also be used to plump eyebrows, smooth hollows beneath the eyes, define the cupid’s bow of the lips, and even soften scars and other skin depressions.

Perlane is similar to Restylane in that it is made of hyaluronic acid, a safe, natural substance that is found in the human body. Unlike Restylane, however, Perlane is comprised of larger, denser hyaluronic acid gel particles which allow for enhanced lifting and filling that make it ideal for treating deep lines. Like other fillers comprised of hyaluronic acid, it can help to supplement and replace the hyaluronic acid in the body that naturally depletes with age and contributes to an aging appearance.

Treatment with Perlane is conducted in the office setting on an outpatient basis. It contains lidocaine, which means discomfort is minimal. However, a topical numbing cream may be applied beforehand to ensure your comfort. It is then injected beneath the skin using an ultra-fine needle. The treatment takes just about thirty minutes to complete and there is minimal downtime afterward. Patients may experience some minor redness, bruising, and swelling that can last for up to several days; however, normal activities can be resumed immediately after treatment. Results generally last an average of six to twelve months.
