Cosmetic injectables such as dermal fillers and biostimulators are among the most popular treatments offered at our Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, practice near Spokane. Even though fillers and biostimulators are both used to address early signs of aging and improve facial contours, they work in different ways.
Keep in mind that each patient is unique and your results may vary.
The Restylane product line includes various hyaluronic acid-based fillers designed to address specific concerns. They include Restylane® Silk and Restylane® Lyft.
Restylane Silk the first FDA-approved, hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler specifically formulated for lip augmentation and the correction of fine vertical lines around the mouth. Its particles are much smaller than those of other Restylane fillers, delivering subtle, natural-looking results without bulkiness.
Restylane Lyft is used to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, and restore volume and fullness to the skin. Intended for deeper injection, Restylane Lyft adds volume for structural support and lift. Applied by injection with an ultra-fine needle, Restylane Lyft is a natural way to smooth away deep facial lines.
Sculptra is a unique injectable that works differently from fillers. Using an ingredient called poly-L-lactic acid, Sculptra stimulates collagen production for several months after your treatment. The results can last up to 2 years and look and feel extremely natural. After a series of injections – typically 3, spaced several weeks apart – Sculptra patients notice an improvement in the quality and condition of their skin. Sculptra may also be used to fill in hollow or depressed temples or improve the firmness of skin along the jawline.
Filler treatments start at $600 per syringe at our Coeur d’Alene practice. Your actual cost will depend on the filler used, the number of syringes needed, and areas treated. You will be given a personalized quote as part of your consultation.
In addition to dermal fillers, we offer the popular injectable Dysport® for effective reduction of dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by the contractions of facial muscles. These treatments can be combined in a liquid facelift to provide comprehensive, full face rejuvenation.
Combining treatments can be beneficial for patients who wish to address wrinkles and volume loss, as well as other concerns, including skin laxity, sun damage, poor skin tone and texture, and more. In such cases, we’ll tailor your treatment to enhance your overall complexion and results.
This highly customizable approach allows us to target multiple concerns and deliver complementary results. Dr. Johnson will help you determine whether combining Dysport with laser and other services can elevate your overall look. Review our blog post for more information.
If you’re feeling anxious about your injections, we offer self-administered nitrous oxide with Pro-Nox™. Sometimes also called “laughing gas,” Nitrous oxide is a safe, odorless gas that temporarily reduces feelings of anxiety and stress. Learn more during your consultation.
Dermal fillers provide appealing and youthful-looking volume to several areas of the face, plumping the lips, enhancing the cheeks, softening deep lines and folds around the mouth, and more.

Even though fillers are often thought of as anti-aging treatments, many younger patients get fillers to create attractive contours that are ready for social media or video conference calls. In addition, fillers can correct asymmetrical features. Some of the most popular treatment areas for facial contouring include:
Jawline: Fillers can create a more well-defined jawline, which is often associated with a more attractive face for both men and women.
Cheeks: High cheekbones are a desirable trait often seen in high-fashion models. Well-defined cheeks enhance overall facial symmetry while giving a more youthful appearance.
Lips: Lip augmentation with fillers is one of the most popular treatments we perform for patients who want fuller, plumper lips.
Tear troughs: This treatment smooths the under eye area, helping you look refreshed and rejuvenated.
The following fillers are specifically formulated for lip augmentation and enhancement:
During your consultation, your injector will help you choose the filler that is best suited to your unique needs and the enhancement you’d like to attain.
The results of lip injections can last up to 1 year. This blog post provides additional details about how long you can enjoy fuller lips with various lip fillers.
All of the fillers we use are FDA-approved and proven safe. We carefully screen each patient before treatment for the highest level of safety.
Side effects from lip filler injections are usually temporary and include swelling, tenderness, bruising, itching, and redness.
Swelling and bruising are normal after lip injections. The lips are very sensitive, so don’t have the treatment right before a special event. Swelling significantly dissipates with the first few days and is gone in about 2 weeks for the majority of patients. Applying cold packs as directed and keeping the head elevated at all times for the first day or two can minimize these side effects.
