Filler Alternatives
Sovereign Skin provides a variety of alternative treatments to fillers. Please continue reading below for further information on these options.
Natural Alternatives to Dermal Fillers
If needles aren’t your cup of tea, you may be looking for effective dermal filler alternatives. At Sovereign Skin, we offer several natural alternatives to face filler injections that promote skin rejuvenation from within and boost collagen production to achieve subtle and sophisticated results.
Dermal Fillers Alternatives Before & After
Alternatives to Cheek Fillers
While hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are commonly used to add volume and lift the cheek area, we offer several other options to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
Our Silhouette® InstaLift Threads is an excellent option for patients looking to smooth outmarionette lines, laugh lines, jowls, or creased, sagging skin. As an effective alternative to cheek fillers and facelifts, InstaLift Threads utilize bidirectional cones to lift and secure tissues from within, build skin-strengthening collagen, and restore lost volume.
The TempSure® treatment utilizes a multi-modal radiofrequency (RF) device to create smoother, tighter, and firmer skin without traditional fillers or surgery. During the treatment, controlled RF energy is delivered to deep layers of the skin, gently heating them and promoting new collagen formation. As a result, plumper skin in the cheek area can be achieved without needles or downtime.
Bela MD Ultra Facial is a 6-step ultimate glow facial that delivers skin-revitalizing serums through advanced microcurrent and ultrasonic technology. This facial treatment is recommended to anyone looking to address age spots or fine lines and wrinkles, providing deep hydration and instant rejuvenation to the cheek area.
Alternatives to Lip Fillers
For patients looking to enhance their lips without injectable fillers, several other cosmetic treatments can be used to enhance lip shape and rejuvenate the surrounding skin.
As lip augmentation trends favour more subtle, sophisticated enhancements, the Lip Flip treatment offers the perfect alternative to fillers. With the Lip Flip procedure, tiny amounts of Botox or other neuromodulators are injected to relax the upper lip edges just enough to “flip” the lip up slightly. As a result, the upper lip appears fuller, with a slight “pout” effect.
Exosomes are tiny, natural particles that are released by cells into the bloodstream or other body fluids. They are like little packages that carry important information from one cell to another, helping cells communicate, regulate processes, or even repair damaged tissue. They come in handy when looking for natural alternatives to dermal fillers.
To rejuvenate the area around your lips, your skin will first be prepared through a microneedling procedure, which will create thousands of tiny channels across your skin. Once the skin is prepped, our unique Purasome solution containing collagen stimulators will be applied evenly across your face, deeply penetrating the skin through these channels. As a result, you will enjoy a smoother, plumper area around your lips without any fillers.
Various laser treatments work by delivering heat via the wavelength of light being emitted. This heat causes controlled trauma to the targeted skin, promoting our bodies to respond with new cell formation and the production of new collagen and elastin. While laser resurfacing may have some downtime, a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart will produce noticeable, long-lasting results. As such, laser resurfacing is often performed around the lip area to improve the appearance of small lines and wrinkles for patients looking for lip filler alternatives.
Alternatives to Tear Trough Fillers
If you have visible tear troughs, fillers are not your only option. At Sovereign Skin, we offer several alternatives to tear-trough fillers to reduce these signs of aging or fatigue.
The microneedling treatment has been around for decades, delivering proven rejuvenation results with minimal downtime. Also known as “collagen induction therapy,” the treatment utilizes microneedles to create thousands of tiny openings within the skin. These tiny wounds encourage the skin to heal and produce new collagen and growth factors while healing. Many times, we will apply custom skin rejuvenation solutions immediately after microneedling to ensure better penetration of active ingredients.
With several treatments, your skin will look brighter and firmer, with tear troughs becoming less and less noticeable.
RF microneedling devices take microneedling to the next level by delivering gentle radiofrequency waves deep into the skin through the tips of microneedles. This RF energy stimulates collagen production to produce faster, more dramatic results – especially when it comes to reducing eye bags or filling in tear troughs.
While the radiofrequency cosmetic treatment may sound intimidating, it’s not painful. The energy is delivered through a hand-held device in pulses to targeted zones, without causing any visible side effects.
First introduced in the 1880s, chemical peels are a tried-and-true alternative to tear-trough fillers. Chemical peels are typically applied to the entire face, including the tear troughs, to promote deep exfoliation of the skin. This controlled skin injury causes the skin to peel and flake, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful skin underneath.
Alternatives to Under-Eye Fillers
If you are looking for alternatives to fillers for eyes in order to address other issues like puffiness or dark circles, we offer a few injection-free options.
Our unique “panda eyes” treatment is one of the best under-eye filler alternatives to address dark circles. The “panda eyes” laser targets the under-eye area to address permanently dark skin caused by extra pigment within the skin cells or visible blood vessels under the skin surface. This 1-step process delivers combined heat and light wavelengths to target pigmentation, stimulate circulation, and rejuvenate the skin for a thicker, more toned appearance. As a result, you will enjoy lighter, smoother, and plumper skin around the eyes.
Green Toning treatment is another targeted laser frequently used as an alternative to dermal fillers under the eyes. Similarly to tattoo-removing lasers, the Green Toning device delivers 2 different wavelengths of light energy to treat superficial pigment and deeper pigmentation at the same time. This treatment works great for individuals with fair skin and even for patients with medium Asian skin tones.
When it comes to caring for the delicate under-eye area, properly taking care of your skin at home is key to maintaining the results after laser treatments and improving the appearance of existing dark circles and fine lines. For instance, topical creams containing caffeine are known to reduce puffiness and minimize the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. On the other hand, retinol-containing creams are proven to aid skin regeneration and collagen production, thus minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes without injectable fillers. We would be happy to help you find the right skincare that can act as a natural alternative to under-eye fillers.
Alternatives to Filler for Nasolabial Folds
Nasolabial folds are unwelcome “smile lines” that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth. While these types of wrinkles are frequently treated with dermal fillers, there are other options worth considering.
Ulthera, also known as Ultherapy, is an anti-aging ultrasound procedure that uses focused heat to gently lift and tighten loose skin. It presents a comfortable, non-invasive alternative to facial filler for nasolabial folds and other facial areas. By directing heat energy toward targeted tissues under the skin surface, the Ulthera device stimulates the body’s natural collagen production and lifts the skin, leaving you with a younger, plumper appearance.
If your nasolabial folds are caused by dry skin and a build-up of dead skin cells, gentle exfoliation may be all you need to see visible results. Our microdermabrasion treatment utilizes a non-invasive, diamond-tip exfoliating device that gently removes the outer layer of dead skin cells, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after just one treatment. At Sovereign Skin, we also infuse custom rejuvenation solutions during microdermabrasion in a treatment known as SilkPeel Dermalinfusion.
Approximately 35% of people have a canine or cuspid smile due to an overactive levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle, which is responsible for lifting the upper lip, revealing too much gum tissue, and creating deep nasolabial folds. For patients whose nasolabial folds are caused by overactive facial muscles, Botox or other neurotoxins present an excellent dermal filler alternative. Targeted injections of low doses of Botox or Dysport can effectively prevent the upper lip from moving too high and smooth out the furrows around the nose.
