Who said anything about aging gracefully? Fight it every step of the way.
Aging is no longer something that people are willing to succumb to without a fight. Today’s generation is living longer, living healthier, and searching for non-surgical ways to look as good as they feel.
The answer, for many, is soft tissue augmentation - a non-invasive procedure that has the amazing ability to erase the signs of aging by restoring volume and enhancing facial contours. Just one simple tissue filler therapy at our Kelowna skin care clinic can produce dramatic results.
Tissue Fillers
Tissue fillers are generally made of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in the body. Once injected, fillers generallly last 6 – 12 months. This treatment can be combined with botox for optimal results, while keeping your own natural look in balance.

The provider will swab the area with alcohol or other antiseptic prior to injecting the gel gently under the skin, in the area previously decided upon.
