PREVELLE® Silk

Among the variety of available choices for injectable fillers in Toronto, PREVELLE Silk stands out because of its ability to provide immediate results with minimal pain and no downtime.

The main component of PREVELLE Silk injectable dermal filler is hyaluronic acid, a material that occurs naturally in your skin. Hyaluronic acid absorbs water and combines with your skin’s collagen and elastin to fill in facial wrinkles and lines. PREVELLE Silk contains the mild local anesthetic lidocaine to help alleviate any discomfort during treatment.

Choosing PREVELLE Silk: Who Is a Good Candidate?

PREVELLE is a non-invasive, low-irritation remedy for moderate to severe wrinkles. It creates fullness and volume while maintaining facial softness for a more youthful look. PREVELLE Silk can be used to resolve:

• Vertical lip lines
• Smile lines
• "Marionette lines" below the mouth
• Forehead lines
• "Crow’s feet" beside eyes

PREVELLE is a safe option for the majority of men and women hoping to reverse signs of aging. Patients who have severe allergies and those with lidocaine sensitivity should not use PREVELLE. Notify your doctor if you take medications that compromise your immune system. Increased bruising may occur in patients who take blood-thinning medications (including aspirin, NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, and warfarin), so be sure to let us know what medications you are taking prior to treatment.

JUVÉDERM® and PREVELLE® Silk are quite similar in that they both have hyaluronic acid as their active ingredient. Both products provide effective treatment for facial lines and wrinkles, so your doctor may choose one over the other for specific uses or specific locations.

Your PREVELLE Silk Treatment

PREVELLE is injected into the folds and wrinkles of your skin using a tiny needle. Because PREVELLE Silk contains lidocaine, no additional anesthetic is usually necessary. The procedure lasts about 30 minutes, and the results are immediate.

Depending on the severity of facial wrinkling, you may require a touch-up treatment 1 or 2 weeks after your initial PREVELLE session.

PREVELLE is a temporary treatment, so results will gradually dissipate after 3 to 6 months. How long the effects of treatment last vary from patient to patient.

PREVELLE Silk injections are sometimes combined with injections of BOTOX® Cosmetic in order to attain more significant improvements.

Results and Aftercare for PREVELLE Silk

Because there is no healing time associated with this minimally invasive treatment, you should be able to see changes immediately after PREVELLE injections. However, it may take a few days for the final results to become visible.

Temporary side effects may include mild pain and tenderness, bumps, peeling, redness, bruising and swelling. If you experience difficulty swallowing, speaking or breathing, or if common side effects worsen, contact your surgeon or other medical professional immediately.

Take care to minimize exposure of the treated area to sunlight, tanning lamps and intensely hot or cold temperatures until any redness or swelling has subsided.
