Graper Harper Cosmetic Surgery has three Certified Nurse Injectors, one who is one of only 200 national trainers for Allergan Medical Institute. Linda Owens teaches medical providers injection techniques of Botox® Cosmetic and dermal fillers. Our two additional Certified Nurse Injectors, Teri Trudnak and Kristen Hall, also have many years of experience with all treatment options. Continuing education is of utmost importance to our expert injectors, remaining current on products and procedures, to provide optimal results for our patients.

The following treatments offer temporary solutions for eliminating facial wrinkles and folds. They can be used in combination with other procedures for wrinkles and volume loss in the face, brows, eyes, and cheeks.

Juvéderm Ultra and Ultra Plus XC

Juvéderm injectable gel is produced through HYLACROSS® technology promoting duration for up to one year. This technology results in a smooth consistency, which is a primary factor in the long-lasting, smooth, and natural look and feel – the hallmark of Juvéderm wrinkle correction.

This gel is made of hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. Juvéderm is used to treat facial wrinkles and folds, most commonly the nasolabial folds, often referred to as “marionette lines”, and to turn up “downturned” corners of the mouth. Juvéderm® VYCROSS™ technology is formulated with lidocaine, a common anesthetic, to provide a more comfortable experience during and after treatment.

Juvéderm Voluma XC

Volume loss in the cheeks is a major reason we lose a more youthful profile over the years. You can restore lost volume in the cheeks and re-contour the face with Juvéderm Voluma™ XC. This injectable filler is FDA-approved to add volume to the midface/cheek area to create a more youthful look. Juvéderm Voluma XC contains a modified hyaluronic acid (HA) in a gel. This treatment gives a subtle lift and helps to enhance facial contour specifically in the cheek area. The results are seen right after treatment and are FDA-approved to last up to two years.

Juvederm Volbella XC

This treatment is FDA-approved for the lips. Juvederm Volbella XC increases lip fullness and softens the appearance of vertical lip lines. The result is a pretty, more youthful look. It is FDA-Approved to last up to one year.

Juvederm Vollure XC

This injectable gel is used for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds and to “turn up” the corners of the mouth. It is FDA-approved to last up to 18 months.

Liquid Facelift

Patients who wish to achieve a rejuvenated facial appearance without undergoing a surgical procedure such as a facelift, brow lift, or eyelid surgery often choose a Liquid Facelift. A Liquid Facelift is the use of various injectable dermal fillers, usually in combination with Botox® Cosmetic, to provide a comprehensive, less permanent, minimally invasive facial treatment tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient. The result is a more youthful appearance.

In performing a Liquid Facelift, Graper Harper Cosmetic Surgery utilizes the full spectrum of facial injectables, including Botox® Cosmetic, and a combination of the Juvederm® Filler Collection – Juvederm Ultra, Ultra Plus, Voluma, Vollure, and Vobella. Graper Harper Cosmetic Surgery relies on their many years of experience to choose the correct combination of these effective products to meet the aesthetic needs and desires of each patient.

Botox® Cosmetic

The Liquid Facelift provides a gentle lift of individual facial features, reduces wrinkles, creases, folds, and restores natural facial contours. The results are a more rested, energetic look and can range from subtle to dramatic. Patients often tell of compliments from unsuspecting family, friends, and associates who are unaware that they have received treatment. Everyone will notice, no one will know.
