Dr. Emer can use injectable dermal fillers throughout the face to restore lost volume, augment facial features to improve facial balance, and smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. There are many types of dermal fillers, and each has distinct characteristics. 

Dr. Emer will select the optimal filler(s) for your facial sculpting needs based on your anatomy and desired outcome. Dr. Emer often uses hyaluronic acid (HA)-based fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, and Belotero to sculpt feminine facial contours. HA fillers provide temporary results, so regular treatments are needed to maintain consistent results.

For patients seeking longer-lasting results, Dr. Emer may recommend the semi-permanent filler, Bellafill. Bellafill also has the added benefit of boosting collagen production to improve skin tone over time. 

Patients seeking a one-time filler treatment for volume restoration, facial fat grafting may be a good option. Fat injections can provide permanent facial sculpting improvements. Patients can choose between an autologous fat transfer procedure that repurposes their unwanted body fat to create fat injections or Renuva synthetic fat injections, which are made from purified donor fat.

When it comes to facial sculpting for women, neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Xeomin can provide a quick, convenient solution for several common cosmetic concerns. Dr. Emer can inject neuromodulators to smooth out creases, folds, and wrinkles. Neuromodulators can also be used to create a more feminine jawline by relaxing and reducing the masseter muscle.

Dr. Emer often pairs neuromodulators with dermal filler treatments to achieve smooth, aesthetic facial contours. Neuromodulators provide temporary results, so periodic retreatment will be needed to maintain your desired look.

Silhouette InstaLift and NovaThreads thread lifting treatments are designed to treat mild skin laxity, wrinkles, and drooping tissue. Once placed, resorbable threads can be used to gently and subtly lift sagging skin. The threads also promote collagen-production for long-term improvements in skin tone and texture.

Dr. Emer can provide a natural-looking lift in the cheek, jawline, and neck areas with thread lifting. He also can use NovaThreads to plump and shape the lips.

Ultrasound-based Ultherapy and/or radiofrequency treatment with Thermage can provide significant skin tightening and rejuvenating effects. These gentle, non-invasive procedures deliver precise amounts of energy to the skin to kickstart collagen production and improve and prevent signs of aging.

Dr. Emer is considered a skin rejuvenation specialist. He has a comprehensive selection of microneedling devices and lasers to promote firm, healthy, youthful-looking skin and smooth facial contours.

Skin resurfacing with microneedling and laser treatments helps to encourage radiant skin and can minimize the appearance of scars and irregularities. Long-term, these treatments stimulate collagen production for continued improvement in skin texture and tone.

Many female patients are concerned about excess fat in the face and neck. Whether you have chubby cheeks, unwanted fullness in the face, or a double chin, there are non-surgical and surgical options for slimming and refining your facial contours:

• For minor submental (under the chin) fat pockets, Dr. Emer may recommend non-surgical treatments such as CoolSculpting or Kybella injections.
• Face and/or neck liposuction is a fat removal method that can provide dramatic fat reduction results with just one treatment.
• Buccal fat pad reduction is a surgical procedure that removes unwanted fat pads from the cheeks and lower face to achieve a slimmer, more elegant facial profile.

Patients seeking dramatic improvements without undergoing a surgical facelift can often achieve their desired results with a less-invasive FaceTite facelift. FaceTite delivers radiofrequency heat to internal tissues for an immediate skin tightening and contouring effect.

For patients with advanced signs of aging and considerable excess, sagging skin, facelift surgery may be the best option. Dr. Emer works with a team of top Beverly Hills plastic surgeons to provide natural-looking, long-lasting facial sculpting results with this cosmetic surgery.

One of Dr. Emer’s newest combinations is the “BellaLift” procedure, which pairs two dermal fillers: Bellafill and Juvederm Voluma. BellaLift features the lifting properties of Voluma and the long-lasting, collagen-building benefits of Bellafill. When used in combination, hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers like Juvederm Voluma and semi-permanent fillers like Bellafill can create both immediate results and long-term collagen stimulation.

This cleverly crafted combination approach is a more permanent solution for several female facial sculpting procedures. Dr. Emer often uses BellaLift for enhancing the chin, defining the jaw, and contouring the nose. BellaLift can even be used to improve scarring, facial asymmetries, facial trauma, or hollowing temples.
