Leading Uses for Restylane, Peralane and Juvederm

The most popular hyaluronic acid based fillers are Restylane, Peralane and Juvederm, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring complex sugar familiar to the body. This makes it safer but is also the reason why touches up treatments are needed by patients.
The popularity of these fillers has virtually pushed collagen from the market in facial rejuvenation treatments and greatly reduced the use of botex in many areas of the face. Since the body also makes its own hyaluronic acid the need for skin tests like in previous treatments has been eliminated.
