Benefits of
Prevelle Silk:
- the perfect "last minute"
filler - get it today and be ready for any event tomorrow
- ideal for sensitive skin
with low reaction rate, even in very
sensitive areas due to lower concentration of HA
- formulated with lidocaine
anesthetic for
comfort of injection - no lip block required for lip enhancement
- minimal swelling on injection
because Prevelle is fully hydrated right out of the syringe -
what you see if what you get
- plump thin, delicate areas
without ridging or lumping
- no
pre-testing
- lower costs
Nearly all hyaluronic gel fillers present some post-injection
swelling. Why? Because the concentration of the hyaluronic acid
draws water to these water-loving molecules. Within a few days a
natural equilibrium is reached and swelling is abated.
Often patients want a last-minute filler and don't have time
for the resolution of the initial swelling response. That's were
Prevelle fits in perfectly. With a lowered concentration of
hyaluronic acid, and molecules that already are fully saturated,
there is very little swelling and any that does occur is generally
completely gone by the next day.
Prevelle is also
an ideal "first-timer" dermal filler. The lowered
concentrations mean that Prevelle will last a lesser amount of time
than the higher-concentration formulas of Juvederm or Restylane.
This allows you to "try on" a dermal filler without a long term
commitment. If longer lasting results are then desired, it's easy to
switch.
Duration is around 2 months.
Where can
Prevelle Silk be used?
- lips
- lip border

- nasolabial
folds
-
superficial facial wrinkles
An Ideal Holiday Filler
Last minute parties mean last minute preparations. Prevelle is easy
to inject and with the low reaction profile, you can easily have
your injection on Thursday and attend a party on the weekend without
worry that you'll look unnaturally puffy.
(Cllnical studies and use show 24 hours to be normal patient
response time. Patients with unusually high sensitivities may experience
a somewhat longer post-injection response. If you have experienced a
high level of injection response in the past or have never had
filler injections before, Dr. Pilest recommends that you receive
your Prevelle Silk injections 5 to 7 days prior to an event.)
Any
drawbacks?
Mainly the longevity of the product. Prevelle appears to last around
60 to 90 days depending upon the area of use, whereas the two most popular hyaluronic acid fillers
(Restylane or Juvederm) can last 6 months or more. Prevelle is
cheaper, however, and with the minimal discomfort associated with
its injections, does seem to have a nice niche.
Prevelle is recommended for patients who want the following: Less
reaction and swelling, less discomfort with injection, a lower price
point, and don't mind a shorter-lasting result.

Patient Safety Information
Pre and Post
Injection Advice
- stopping Aspirin for one week prior to the injection and
refraining for Ibuprofen usage for three days prior to the
appointment
- ice, rest and minimal movement of the area for the first 24
hours following the injection
- We also suggest Limiting alcohol ingestion prior to
the injection and for 48 hours following the procedure will
limit the swelling and bruising as well
