Over time, you may notice physical changes that age the appearance of your face. Your features may lose some of their youthful fullness and supporting facial fat may migrate downward, causing the skin to sag. Fine lines and wrinkles may also form along your brow, near your eyes, and around your lips.
Dr. Vu can treat Huntington Beach patients with a variety of dermal fillers to restore the fullness that they have lost and to create a younger, more rested appearance. His offerings include the full line of Juvรฉdermยฎ products and many others. Dermal fillers provide aesthetic improvement without surgical intervention, and their benefits can last for months. With this approach, Dr. Vu can address features such as:
- Tear troughs below the lower eyelids
- Sagging or flattened cheeks
- Laugh lines, which run from the nose to the corner of the mouth
- Marionette lines, which go from the corners of the mouth down along the chin
- Vertical lines above and below the lips
- Aging hands that have taken on a thin, bony appearance
Explore the different products available through the practice, and learn about Dr. Vuโs approach to treatment. He will perform a thorough examination of the area in question and will make recommendations on products to use for your needs and preferences.
What Is Juvรฉderm?
Juvรฉderm is a family of dermal filler products from Allerganยฎ. Dr. Vu recommends different options in the collection to Huntington Beach and Orange County patients based on their aesthetic concerns, as each dermal filler varies in its consistency and purpose. A product with more firmness can give features like the cheeks and hands greater architectural support and can help in treating deep wrinkles. Fillers with a softer consistency can provide a more natural feel in areas such as the lips.
Juvรฉderm Vollure XC
Juvรฉdermยฎ Vollureยฎ XC can be effective in reducing the appearance of moderate to severe lines. Dr. Vu uses this solution to combat laugh lines, marionette lines, and other wrinkles that form around the nose and mouth.
Juvรฉderm Volbella XC
Juvรฉdermยฎ Volbellaยฎ XC is a great option if your lips have thinned out over time. You may also benefit from treatment if you have developed vertical lines above and below your lips, which is commonly the result of aging, smoking, and frequent lip pursing.
Juvรฉderm Voluma XC
Juvรฉdermยฎ Volumaยฎ XC is designed to restore fullness to the cheeks. Over time, these features tend to flatten and sag. Dr. Vu injects Voluma to correct this loss of volume and to give patients a younger appearance.

RHA Collection
The RHAยฎ Collection by Teoxane/Revanceยฎ is the first FDA-approved line of fillers designed specifically to adapt to the dynamic movements of the face. Unlike traditional fillers that can sometimes appear rigid when the face is in motion, the RHA Collection is formulated to move naturally with your expressions while still addressing common signs of aging.
Dr. Vu offers the full RHA Collection to Huntington Beach and Orange County patients seeking subtle, elegant results that look just as natural when you are smiling, laughing, or speaking as they do when your face is at rest. Depending on your needs, the RHA Collection can treat:
- Dynamic wrinkles such as those around the mouth and eyes, caused by repeated facial movement.
- Fine lines and folds including nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
- Loss of volume and contour in areas that require a soft, natural feel.
With its unique formulation, the RHA Collection provides long-lasting results while maintaining flexibility and a natural look. Like other fillers, treatment requires little to no downtime, and results are visible almost immediately.
BELOTERO BALANCE
BELOTERO BALANCEยฎ is an injectable treatment that can temporarily fill in moderate to severe smile lines. It offers a natural feel and texture and, like other dermal fillers, requires no downtime after treatment. Dr. Vu also uses BELOTERO BALANCE to fill in fine facial lines. Injecting these lines superficially on the skinโs surface can give you a younger, smoother appearance.

RADIESSE
RADIESSEยฎ is an FDA-approved dermal filler that can help smooth facial wrinkles and folds by increasing the natural collagen stimulation, helping to bring long-lasting results. Dr. Vu recommends RADIESSE for patients looking to increase the volume in areas such as facial lines, nasolabial folds, and even in the back of their hands.

Your Dermal Filler Experience
If you have noticed age-related volume loss or the development of lines and wrinkles and you are interested in a non-surgical solution, start with a consultation at our offices. Dr. Vu will spend extensive time with you learning about your concerns and your goals, and he will recommend an approach to address your needs.
Treatment with Juvederm and the other dermal fillers that our practice offers is gentle, precise, and efficient:
Vu will perform your injections himself. You can have confidence in the care you will receive based on his 20-plus years of experience as a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Our Huntington Beach and Orange County patients do not typically need an anesthetic, but we can help you ice and desensitize the treatment area.
Most of the dermal fillers we offer, including all the Juvederm products, are mixed with lidocaine, which should numb the site and make your experience more comfortable.
If you are having injections around the lips, we can provide a dental block to desensitize the locations that Dr. Vu will be treating.
Dr. Vu always strives to balance natural refinement and softness. He believes that it is perfectly acceptable to start conservatively then add as the need arises.
With follow-ups, he can determine whether to use more filler in future treatments, which features to target and if a different product will provide more noticeable improvement. This approach allows him to fine-tune his technique to the individual.
There is no downtime other than possible bruising and/or swelling following a visit for dermal fillers, though Dr. Vu does recommend that Huntington Beach and Orange County patients not exert themselves for about one day after their procedure. As the benefits of the dermal fillers fade over time, you can return to the practice for retreatment.
