RHA in Tampa

Many patients are well-acquainted with using BOTOX and other neuromodulators to address dynamic facial wrinkles caused by expression. They also use dermal fillers to add volume to areas of the face that appear worn or lackluster and to plump up the lips. Now, picture a dermal filler that functions similarly to BOTOX but with natural ingredients like hyaluronic acid. That's precisely what the new RHA collection from Revance offers.

The Next Level Of Aesthetic Excellence At Holcomb Kreithen

This collection, renowned for its innovative RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) technology, offers a next-level experience in facial rejuvenation and enhancement. At Holcomb Kreithen, clients can now access these cutting-edge fillers that mimic youthful skin's natural movement and resilience, providing unrivaled results in facial contouring, volume restoration, and wrinkle reduction.

What Are RHA Fillers?

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural substance in the skin that helps keep it hydrated, full, and elastic. It's a key ingredient in advanced dermal fillers like the RHA Collection. RHA stands for "Resilient Hyaluronic Acid" and is used in the Revance range of dermal fillers. These fillers target facial wrinkles that appear when you make expressions, like smile lines and forehead wrinkles.

RHA fillers' unique formula and structure allow for natural-looking results while still allowing for facial movement and expression. This Collection is the first and only FDA-approved line of hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers specifically designed to treat dynamic wrinkles, providing patients with a reliable and effective way to rejuvenate their appearance.

Fillers Included In The RHA Collection

The RHA® Collection of resilient hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers includes:

RHA Redensity™

Redensity™ is explicitly designed for correcting moderate to severe dynamic perioral rhytids, commonly known as wrinkles around the mouth. It targets dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements, such as smiling or talking, making it highly effective in restoring a smooth and youthful appearance to the perioral area.

RHA® 2

RHA® 2 addresses moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds, in adults aged 22 or older. By targeting dynamic wrinkles and folds influenced by facial expressions, such as those around the nose and mouth, RHA® 2 provides natural-looking results with improved facial contouring and volume restoration.

RHA® 3

RHA® 3 resolves severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds. Additionally, it augments lip fullness in adults aged 22 or older by enhancing lip volume and definition. It’s a safe and effective option for individuals seeking smoother, more youthful-looking skin and fuller lips.

RHA® 4

Like RHA® 2, RHA® 4 corrects moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds, in adults aged 22 or older. The primary difference lies in their intended uses and the depth of correction they provide. RHA® 2 is typically used for moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds, whereas RHA® 4 is specifically formulated for deeper wrinkles and folds, offering a more robust correction for more pronounced facial aging concerns.

Am I A Good Candidate For The RHA Collection?

The RHA Collection is designed for adults aged 22 or older who desire a more youthful and refreshed appearance without sacrificing the ability to show facial expressions. Ideal candidates for the RHA Collection in Tampa typically:

Have moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, particularly in areas like the nasolabial folds and forehead
Desire natural-looking results that blend seamlessly with their facial features
Want to maintain facial movement and expression without stiffness or artificial appearance
Are in good overall health with realistic expectations about the outcomes of dermal filler treatments

What To Expect: Before, During, And After

Consultation

The process begins with a consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals and concerns. During this appointment, we will:

Review your medical history, allergies, medications, and past cosmetic procedures
Conduct a thorough facial assessment to evaluate skin texture, elasticity, and areas of concern
Create a customized treatment plan tailored to your goals and facial anatomy
Provide detailed information about treatment options, expected results, duration, and potential side effects
Discuss costs

Procedure

Before the procedure begins, the treatment area is cleansed thoroughly to remove any makeup, dirt, or oils. We may also apply a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the injection process.

Using a fine-gauge needle or cannula, your Holcomb Kreithen provider will carefully inject the RHA filler into the targeted areas of your face. The injections are strategically placed to address dynamic facial wrinkles, folds, or regions where volume enhancement is desired, such as the lips.

Recovery and results

Fillers from the RHA Collection are typically well-tolerated with minimal downtime. Here's what you can expect regarding recovery and results:

You may experience some mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites; these effects are expected and usually subside within a few days
You can apply ice packs or cold compresses to reduce swelling and discomfort
Avoid strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol consumption immediately after the procedure
By the end of the first week, any initial swelling or bruising should significantly improve, revealing the initial results
Around two weeks later, you should see the full effects of the treatment as any remaining swelling subsides and the filler fully integrates with your skin
