There is an intricate network of structural features within your skin that keep it looking smooth, firm, and youthful. These important elements include hyaluronic acid (HA), collagen, and elastin. As your body ages, the production of these building blocks and proteins in your tissues (including the skin) decline and begin to break down. Eventually, the skin texture changes, and wrinkles and sagging on your face and body begin to develop as a natural byproduct of aging.

The degree of change you see can be a result of genetics (hereditary) or from lifestyle choices (diet, smoking, skincare, sun exposer, etc.), but regardless of how health-conscious you may be, you cannot stop the body from aging. However, cosmetic injectables can be used to decrease the signs of aging.

Dr. Amit Kochhar is a board-certified plastic surgeon that offers expertise in the use of non-surgical injectables (commonly called soft-tissue fillers, face fillers, or dermal fillers) such as Botox Cosmetic, Juvéderm, Sculptra, and Restylane as a quick, safe, and convenient way to increase facial volume while also increasing the production of the natural building blocks within the skin. He is passionate about helping his patients to age more gracefully with the help of these cosmetic injectable fillers. With little to no downtime, these injectables can be used alone or in combination with other cosmetic procedures to help you complete your facial rejuvenation plan.
