What can you tell me about the new dermal filler Expression?

Can you tell me more about the new dermal filler Expression?

Expression®, the newest dermal filler injectable available today is quickly gaining in popularity because of it's purity, versatility and because it offers 50% more material per syringe when compared to other dermal filler injectables. 

Expression® features new science and is considered a third generation Hyaluronic Acid (HA)—Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body. What makes Expression® unique is that it is the first HA to be produced with a pathogen free medium, Bacillus Subtilis, and is 100% free of animal-derived raw materials and organic solvents.

The scientific compound of Expression® is also different in that it doesn’t draw water to itself upon injection like most other HA's fillers. This means less swelling, bruising and downtime for the patient and you get a better understanding of what the final result will look like right after the injection is complete.

Because of its specialized composition, Expression® is more versatile and can be used to correct everything from fine lines around the eyes and lips, tear troughs as well as into deeper folds and wrinkles.

Like other dermal fillers, it works by adding volume to replace lost collagen "acting as a scaffold" beneath thinning skin and fine lines—especially marionette lines, eye hollows, and languishing lips—effectively plumping them and softening them to achieve a more youthful appearance.

Another benefit is that Expression® comes in 1.5cc syringe versus 1cc which essentially provides 50% more coverage and is a great size filler for people who have multiple places to fill, or who need more than one, but not quite two syringes of filler.

For example I find that a lot of people need more than one syringe of filler for the tear trough area, but not quite 2cc. Given that Expression® is 1.5cc it's been a great way to get more volume into that area, with less expense for the patient.
