Fillers
Injectable fillers are clear soft gels formulated with pure hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance that is made naturally in the skin to help it hold onto hydration. The Juvederm® group of fillers is an advanced group of FDA-approved injectables that add volume and smooth lines and wrinkles, and is the #1 chosen collection of fillers in the United States. In a 2022 survey of injectors with experience with three or more filler brands, the Juvéderm brand was preferred more than two times more than other filler brands. It delivers reliable and nuanced results while minimizing the risk of unwanted filler migration.
Dr. Sherber has extensive knowledge and experience administering filler injections and takes great care and attention when injecting. She is sought out for her skill in delivering natural-looking outcomes with fillers and teaches dermatology residents the most safe and effective techniques to restore volume to the face, while respecting the patient’s natural anatomy to achieve the optimal result. Dr. Sherber was selected by Allergan to be an injector for a Voluma training masterclass and consults on filler selection and development with their medical science team. She was one of the first physicians in the country to inject both Volbella and Vollure in advance of their being available for purchase. Dr. Sherber uses different techniques to achieve the goals of each patient. As featured in The Washington Post, Dr. Sherber injects those patients who are in the public eye in such a way to bounce light off of those areas and give the face the appearance of being softly uplit.
The Vycross technology in these products helps the fillers to have longer duration and to stay in place more reliably than older generation fillers. Dr. Sherber’s approach is to inject fillers precisely in small amounts to areas of shadowing to give the look of good lighting rather than obvious volume. Popular applications of fillers include softening shadows around the nose and mouth, treating age-related volume loss in the cheek area and the undereyes, and adding plumpness to the lips. Depending on the selection of formula and optimization of treatment, results can last up to 2 years.
At Sherber+Rad, three Juvéderm® formulations are offered: VOLUMA® XC, VOLBELLA® XC, and VOLLURE® XC. Hyaluronic acid treatments are our preferred fillers since Hylenex (hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid) can be injected to dissolve the filler if needed.
We customize each treatment plan for our patients, and offer Allē (an Allergan rewards program) and CareCredit financing options.
