Question 1

What are RHA® fillers, and how do they differ from traditional fillers?

Accepted Answer

FDA-approved RHA® fillers utilize Resilient Hyaluronic Acid technology, designed to mimic the natural hyaluronic acid found in the skin. RHA® fillers adapt to the dynamic facial movements of individuals, resulting in a look that appears beautiful at rest and flawless in motion. Unlike traditional fillers, RHA® fillers are more flexible and better able to adapt to facial movements, providing natural-looking results.

Question 2

How long do the results of RHA® fillers typically last?

Accepted Answer

The longevity of RHA® fillers varies depending on individual metabolism, lifestyle factors, and the specific product used. Generally, results can last up to 15 months before a touch-up treatment is recommended to maintain optimal results.

With proper care, you can enjoy the results of your treatment for up to 15 months.

Question 3

Are RHA® fillers safe for all skin types?

Accepted Answer

RHA® fillers are considered safe for various skin types, but consulting a healthcare provider to determine if you are a suitable candidate for the treatment is vital. Individuals with a history of severe allergies, certain medical conditions, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may not be eligible for RHA® fillers.

Developed by TEOXANE Laboratories in Switzerland, RHA® has been popular in Europe for several years but has only recently been approved for use in the USA. When administered by a knowledgeable and experienced healthcare professional, RHA® is a safe choice. Because HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body, most patients tolerate it well, making it a popular choice among dermal fillers.

Question 4

What areas of the face can be treated with RHA® fillers?

Accepted Answer

Versatile RHA® fillers address various areas of the face, including nasolabial folds, marionette lines, lips, cheeks, chin, jawline, and under-eye hollows. They are particularly effective in treating dynamic wrinkles like crow's feet and forehead lines.

Question 5

Is there any downtime associated with RHA® filler treatments?

Accepted Answer

There is typically minimal downtime associated with RHA® filler treatments. Patients may experience temporary swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, but these effects usually subside within a few days. Most individuals can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure.

Question 6

Am I a Good Candidate for an RHA® Filler?

Accepted Answer

Good candidates for RHA® include individuals seeking to address the signs of aging, volume loss, and dynamic wrinkles in the face, who desire natural-looking results that move with their facial expressions. RHA® candidates should also be in good overall health.

Furthermore, good candidates will understand that RHA® is not a cosmetic procedure designed to leave pronounced or exaggerated effects. It is intended to be subtle—almost unnoticeable, even to close friends—except for reducing dynamic wrinkles.
