Dermal Fillers are able to mimic our body’s naturally occurring Hyaluronic Acid. There are numerous types of fillers on the market today with the main difference being the molecular size of the product!

We choose large or small molecule products depending on the injection site. This decision is highly individualized. Larger molecule products are used for deep injections where we are attempting to replace lost volume and create a stronger foundation for the skin. Smaller molecule products are used in areas such as the tear trough region, or fine wrinkles around the mouth, where we need a more precise result.

Dermal Fillers not only reflate tissue but also energize collagen giving more natural volume to sunken areas. Over time, patients often require less filler as collagen has been re-established creating a natural, fresh appearance.

Lip injections are a cosmetic treatment that aids in addressing facial volume loss by restoring volume in deflated and dehydrated lips.

Hyaluronic acid (what lip filler is composed of) is a natural component that our bodies produce that gives us volume and elasticity. Trained by a top Ukrainian-American injector, Leslie performs the Russian technique. This method is a natural and safe method that allows for the most vertical height and volume with one syringe of filler as opposed to other techniques that can potentially cause filler migration above the lip causing the "duck" effect. The natural lip shape is enhanced while correcting asymmetry or building the desired shape (i.e., "keyhole pout" look). Before the treatment, numbing cream is applied containing lidocaine, which ensures a procedure at optimum comfort. All results in "before and after" pictures are with initial swelling, which will subside by 30-40%, leaving a natural and beautiful result that lasts anywhere from 7 months to a year.

Leslie's approach to lip fillers is based on the belief that each patient has a unique aesthetic journey. After consulting with you, Leslie will create a custom treatment plan that suits your lifestyle and beauty tastes.

Botox, Dysport & Jeuveau are well-known injectable neuromodulators all containing botulinum toxin type A as their active compound. They have grown in popularity due to their ability to treat and slow down wrinkle formation. Wrinkles that start as fine lines eventually develop into deep lines (think: frown lines and furrowed brows). Temporarily relaxing these muscles creates a softer appearance. It works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles so the injected muscle is unable to contract.

Botox, Dysport & Jeuveau injections are the cornerstone treatment to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. At M.E.L. Aesthetics we tailor toxin injections to allow for patients to still display expressions while reducing the ability of the muscles to move enough to cause wrinkles.

Beyond its cosmetic uses, other benefits of Botox, Dysport & Jeuveau injections include: hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating), chronic migraines/headaches, and TMJ relief.
