CANADA’S NO. 1 CLINIC FOR RESTYLANE® FILLERS

DMC Skin Clinic holds the proud title of being Galderma Canada’s Top Injector for 4 consecutive years in 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. This title is a designation awarded to the clinic that has provided the highest volume of aesthetic injectables including Restylane® fillers, Dysport® botulinum toxin, and Sculptra® (injectable poly-L-lactic acid) each year across Canada. For a single injector clinic like DMC Skin Clinic, achieving the top volume status is a remarkable feat on its own. Medical research confirms that when doctors and institutions perform procedures more frequently, they do so with greater skill and improved safety. While the case volume is certainly not the only factor of consideration when selecting one’s cosmetic injector, we believe this is an indicator of the level of skills, knowledge, and artistry behind each injection at DMC Skin Clinic. Our filler injection services are grounded firmly on in-depth anatomical knowledge and extensive clinical experience. We continually invest in the integration of sophisticated filler delivery techniques for a natural, atraumatic, and long-lasting augmentation of treatment areas; since late 2017, DMC Skin Clinic broke new ground by developing and providing filler injections under ultrasound guidance for enhanced accuracy and safety, boasting the flawless safety record of zero filler complication. Moreover, working closely with prestigious societies of plastic surgeons and dermatologists in Korea, DMC Skin Clinic is the original provider of DermaSculpting, Aqua Lifting™, Mesotox™, and Cosmetic PRP in Canada. Consider DMC Skin Clinic, a seasoned provider of filler injections from forehead to the chin, neck wrinkles, breasts, buttocks, and backs of the hands as well as atrophic scars and superficial fine wrinkles.

WHAT ARE INJECTABLE HA FILLERS?

Injectable fillers, such as Restylane®, Emervel®, Teosyal®, Belotero®, and Juvederm®, are made of a soft tissue replacement material that is naturally occurring in the body and can be injected into various layers of the body such as the skin, fat and superior to the bone. DMC Skin Clinic uses 100% hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers that are biologically-made, and therefore harmlessly used by the body and broken down into complete disappearance over time, for non-surgical facial shaping and augmentation. Unlike neuromodulators and other filler products, HA filler is not liquid, but has the consistency of a gel with well-characterized viscosity, elasticity, and cohesivity, making it suitable for augmentation and restoration of various body areas. Because the HA filler is made of 100% HA, results are easily adjustable and even reversible.

ULTRASOUND-GUIDED INJECTION

DMC Skin Clinic’s innovative use of high definition ultrasound imaging, which allows for visualization and detection of facial soft tissues and structures invisible to the plain eye, is implemented for enhanced accuracy and safety of filler injections. While ultrasound has been used as a diagnostic tool for many years, the benefits of ultrasound visualization have not yet seen their days of common proliferation in the field of cosmetic medicine. Clinical studies report that the accuracy of blind injections (injections performed without image guidance) in some cases can be as low as 30%-40%. The use of ultrasound allows clear visualization of important anatomical structures in relation to needle and cannula in real-time. It also allows visual confirmation of filler placement during and after the injection. The benefits of ultrasound imaging are many including enhanced accuracy and improved safety leading to balanced results and reduction of trauma, swelling, and bruising.

Any downtime includes possible bruising and/or swelling, the degrees to which vary from patient to patient. Unlike with some other procedures, patients are able to resume daily activities shortly, if not immediately, following the treatment.
