Revanesse® Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

Dermal filler treatments at Vital Glow in Columbia, SC are performed by Candace Danbury, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC, using Revanesse® hyaluronic acid fillers and a conservative, anatomy-focused approach designed for natural-looking facial balancing and volume restoration.
 
Revanesse is a family of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers. Revanesse Versa+ is FDA approved for correction of moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds in adults age 22 and older, while Revanesse Lips+ is FDA approved for lip augmentation in adults age 22 and older.
 
At Vital Glow, filler is not about making you look like someone else or adding volume simply because it can be added. The goal is to restore volume, refine proportions, or enhance a feature in a way that still looks balanced, natural, and like you.
 
Before recommending treatment, Candace evaluates your facial proportions, movement, existing volume, skin quality, previous filler, medical history, and—most importantly—the kind of result you actually want. Sometimes Revanesse filler is the right answer. If you prefer a regenerative injectable made from your own blood, Cellenis Derma PRP may be worth discussing. Sometimes another treatment makes more sense. And sometimes the best recommendation is to leave something alone.

Different Gels. Different
Treatment Goals.

Revanesse includes hyaluronic acid gels designed for different treatment goals. Revanesse Versa+ is used for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds, while Revanesse Lips+ is specifically approved for lip augmentation. The provider selects the product, depth, placement, and amount that best fit your anatomy and desired result. Some facial uses of HA filler may be off-label; when that applies, your provider will explain it during consultation.

What Dermal Fillers May Help Improve

  • Thin or asymmetrical lips
  • Lip shape, border definition, and vertical lip lines
  • Loss of cheek or midface volume
  • A recessed or under-projected chin
  • Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  • Selected under-eye hollows
  • Selected temple hollowing or age-related hand volume loss

Not every concern is best treated with filler. Skin laxity, pigment, or texture concerns, muscle activity, significant swelling, or medical conditions may require a different service or outside evaluation. Vital Glow assesses the concern before recommending treatment.

Revanesse Treatment Areas & Options

Revanesse Versa+ and Revanesse Lips+ are both hyaluronic acid fillers, but FDA-cleared indications differ. Lips+ is approved for lip augmentation, while Versa+ is approved for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds. Depending on your anatomy and goals, an experienced medical injector may also discuss off-label HA filler use in other facial areas. Any off-label use should be individualized and reviewed during consultation.

How Hyaluronic
Acid Fillers Work

Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally present in the body. In dermal fillers, HA is formulated into an injectable gel that can be placed precisely to restore selected volume, soften certain folds, improve contour, or add definition.

Vital Glow currently uses Revanesse HA fillers. Revanesse Versa+ is FDA approved for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds, and Revanesse Lips+ is FDA approved for lip augmentation in adults age 22 and older.

The name on the syringe is only part of the equation. Where filler is placed, how much is used, your anatomy, and the injector’s technique matter just as much as the product itself. Treatment begins with a consultation so the provider can determine what makes sense for your face rather than choosing a filler before evaluation.

Lip Filler for Shape, Definition & Volume

Lip filler can be used for subtle hydration and definition, more visible volume, improved symmetry, or softening of lines around the mouth. The best result depends on the patient’s natural lip shape, tooth and jaw support, facial proportions, and how the lips move.

Revanesse Lips+ is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler FDA approved for lip augmentation in adults age 22 and older. Treatment is customized to your natural lip shape, facial proportions, and goals—whether you’re looking for subtle definition, improved symmetry, or additional volume.

  • Add subtle or more noticeable lip volume
  • Improve border definition and Cupid’s bow
  • Address mild asymmetry
  • Support a more balanced upper-to-lower lip ratio
  • Soften selected vertical lip lines
  • Refresh age-related volume loss
  • Build results gradually when appropriate

Swelling can make lips look larger or uneven immediately after treatment. The result should be judged after the initial swelling settles. Additional product should not be added solely because the first-day appearance differs from the final goal.

Cheek & Midface Filler

Cheek and midface filler can be used in selected patients to restore age-related volume, improve contour, or add more visible structure to the cheekbones. The best plan depends on facial anatomy, tissue quality, existing filler, and the degree of change you want.

Some uses of Revanesse or other HA fillers outside their FDA-approved indications are considered off-label. If an off-label treatment is being considered, your provider will explain why it may be appropriate, the alternatives, and the expected limitations before treatment.

  • Restore age-related midface volume
  • Reinforce natural cheek contour
  • Create more visible cheekbone definition
  • Improve balance between the cheeks and lower face
  • Support selected temple or facial-volume concerns
  • Use a staged plan when several syringes may be appropriate

The amount needed varies widely. One syringe spread across both cheeks creates a different result than a multi-syringe structural plan. Vital Glow discusses the expected degree of change before treatment.

Chin, Smile Lines & Lower-Face Balance

Filler can improve facial balance by softening selected folds or, in carefully selected patients, adding support to areas such as the chin or lower face. Revanesse Versa+ is FDA approved for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds. Other facial uses may be off-label and are considered only after an anatomy-focused consultation.

For patients whose lower-face width is driven more by prominent chewing muscles than volume loss, cosmetic masseter slimming may be a different option. The provider may recommend treating structural support before directly filling every visible line to avoid unnecessary volume.

  • Improve projection of an under-developed chin
  • Create a more balanced side profile
  • Soften nasolabial folds
  • Soften marionette lines
  • Support lower-face symmetry
  • Coordinate treatment with lips or cheeks when appropriate

Filler does not tighten loose skin, remove fat beneath the chin, or replace surgery when substantial structural change is needed. Your provider will explain the expected limits of a non-surgical treatment plan.

What to Expect at Your Filler Appointment

1. Consultation and facial assessment. We discuss your goals, prior filler, medical history, medications, allergies, recent dental work or illness, and whether another treatment would be more appropriate.

2. Product and amount selection. The provider recommends the Revanesse formulation, treatment areas, and estimated number of syringes. Treatment may be staged instead of completing every goal in one visit.

3. Preparation. The skin is cleaned and photographed when appropriate. Comfort measures may include topical anesthetic, ice, and products formulated with lidocaine.

4. Injection and assessment. Product is placed with a needle or cannula as clinically appropriate. The provider evaluates symmetry and tissue response throughout the treatment.

5. Immediate review. Early volume is visible, but swelling, redness, and small areas of unevenness can temporarily affect the appearance.

6. Aftercare and follow-up. You receive instructions on activity, pressure, heat, skincare, warning signs, and when to return for reassessment.

Results, Recovery,
& Safety

You’ll usually notice added volume right away, but the final result should not be judged on treatment day. Swelling can temporarily make an area look fuller or slightly uneven while everything settles.

Temporary redness, tenderness, bruising, firmness, itching, or small bumps at the injection sites can occur. Some areas, especially the lips, may swell more than others.
 
How long results last depends on the Revanesse product used, the treatment area, the amount placed, and how your body responds. Your provider will explain what is realistic for your treatment, but no exact duration can be guaranteed.
 
Serious complications are uncommon, but filler is still a medical procedure. Rarely, filler can affect a blood vessel and cause skin injury or vision problems. Severe or increasing pain, unusual skin color changes, vision changes, weakness, facial drooping, or other sudden concerning symptoms require immediate medical attention.
 
Before you leave, your provider will review what is normal after treatment, what to avoid, when to call, and how to reach Vital Glow if you have questions during recovery.

Dermal filler treatments at Vital Glow are performed by owner Candace Danbury, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC. Her approach to facial aesthetics is conservative, consultation-first, and centered on natural-looking results.

Rather than treating a line or feature in isolation, Candace considers facial anatomy, proportions, movement, existing volume, tissue needs, product behavior, and the degree of change you want before recommending where filler should be placed—or whether filler is the right treatment at all.

The goal is not to make you look “filled.” It is to restore volume, refine proportions, or enhance a feature while preserving your facial character and natural movement. When a smaller amount or a staged plan is more appropriate, that is the approach Vital Glow recommends.

Filler is a medical procedure, and good treatment also requires attention to injection depth, complication recognition, and knowing when not to treat. Product selection is individualized from the Revanesse options available for the treatment area and goal.

FAQ

FAQ About Dermal Fillers & Revanesse Treatments

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to restore volume, soften selected wrinkles and folds, or refine facial features. Revanesse products use hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally present in the skin.

Dermal filler treatments at Vital Glow are performed by owner Candace Danbury, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC. Her approach is conservative and anatomy-focused, with treatment planned around facial balance, movement, and the patient’s goals. The goal is a natural-looking result rather than unnecessary volume.

Vital Glow currently uses Revanesse hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. The product and treatment plan depend on the area, desired result, anatomy, and clinical assessment.

Different treatment goals call for different formulations. Revanesse Lips+ is FDA approved for lip augmentation, while Revanesse Versa+ is FDA approved for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds. Your provider selects the product and placement after evaluating your anatomy and goals.

Revanesse Lips+ is FDA approved for lip augmentation, and Revanesse Versa+ is FDA approved for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds in adults age 22 and older. Experienced injectors may use HA filler off-label in selected additional facial areas when clinically appropriate; your provider will explain when a proposed use is off-label.

Added volume is visible immediately, but swelling and bruising can temporarily change the appearance. The result should be evaluated after the initial healing period.

How long results last varies with the product, treatment area, amount placed, facial movement, metabolism, and individual response. Your provider will explain realistic expectations and when maintenance may make sense for your treatment plan.

The amount of product depends on facial anatomy and the degree of change requested. A subtle lip treatment may use less product than a multi-area cheek, chin, or full-face plan. Your provider will estimate the amount before treatment.

Dermal filler pricing at Vital Glow depends on the Revanesse product selected, treatment area, and amount of filler needed to reach your goals. During consultation, your provider will discuss the recommended product, estimated number of syringes, and expected total treatment cost before you proceed. A smaller or staged treatment plan may be recommended when that better fits your anatomy or desired result.

Patients may feel pinching, pressure, or tenderness. Comfort measures can include topical anesthetic, ice, careful technique, and formulations containing lidocaine when applicable.

Many patients return to normal daily activities quickly, but swelling, redness, bruising, tenderness, or temporary unevenness are common. Plan treatment with enough time before important events.

Revanesse is a hyaluronic acid filler and can generally be dissolved with hyaluronidase when clinically appropriate. Dissolving is a medical procedure and may require more than one treatment; it does not guarantee an immediate or perfectly predictable cosmetic result.

Treatment may be inappropriate for people with active infection or inflammation at the site, certain severe allergies, bleeding disorders, or other contraindications. Safety during pregnancy or breastfeeding has not been established. The provider reviews your history before treatment.

Rare injection into or compression of a blood vessel can cause tissue injury, scarring, vision loss, or stroke. Severe or unusual pain, pale or mottled skin, vision changes, weakness, facial droop, or speech difficulty after treatment requires urgent medical attention.

Tell the provider about medications, supplements, allergies, prior filler, cold sores, recent illness, vaccinations, dental work, and planned procedures. Do not stop prescribed blood thinners without the prescribing clinician’s approval.

Follow the individualized instructions. Patients are commonly advised to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, alcohol, and pressure on the treated area for a short period. Do not massage filler unless the provider specifically instructs you to do so.

Yes. A consultation allows the provider to determine whether filler is appropriate, choose the Revanesse product and amount, review risks, and set realistic expectations. If conventional HA filler is not the best fit, your provider may discuss alternatives such as Cellenis Derma PRP, Botox or Xeomin, or other anti-aging and skin-rejuvenation treatments when appropriate.

Revanesse and Restylane are separate brands of hyaluronic acid dermal filler. Both product families include FDA-approved HA fillers, but their formulations, product portfolios, labeling, and manufacturers differ. Vital Glow currently uses Revanesse rather than Restylane. If you have existing Restylane or another filler, tell your provider what product was used, where it was injected, and when.
