With his techniques to artistically sculpt, enhance, and restore. Dr. Lin can mimic a noninvasive face lift without having to go under the knife, by assessing your entire face from your forehead to your neck, to lift and reverse the inverted triangle.
Liquid Facelift®: With the combination of Botox and Filler, Dr. Lin can target fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss directly with the injectables.

What do we use for Dermal Fillers?
We use JUVÉDERM COLLECTION of dermal fillers consist of Juvéderm®, Voluma®, Volbella®, Vollure™,Volux®, and SKINVIVE. JUVÉDERM fillers are made from a modified form of hyaluronic acid (HA). It is a molecular found naturally in your body that delivers nutrients to the skin, helping the skin retain moisture, softness and adding volume. Juvederm is injected beneath the skin to instantly help smooth fine lines and wrinkles, soften creases, enhance contours, and restore volume. This helps the skin to look plump, supple, lifted, and youthful. Clinical studies also suggest that HA fillers can stimulate the body’s natural collagen production where injected, improving skin firmness and elasticity. Each patients’ results will vary depending on the injectors skill, talent, knowledge of the structure of skin to create natural results.
For hydration, dullness, and skin quality
SkinVive, recently approved by the FDA as Juvederms first “skin booster”, to improve the skin smoothness of the cheeks. It’s made to be injected into the dermis, below the skin surface, in microdroplets that hydrate and plump the skin from within. A clinical study found that six months after treatment, 63% of patients were satisfied with how radiant their facial skin looked, 72% were satisfied with how hydrated it looked, and 83% were satisfied with how healthy it looked.

FAQ

Slight bruising, redness, or swelling
6-24 months
You may experience some minor discomfort during the injection of dermal fillers. However, we provide a topical numbing gel to numb the area prior to injection to ease any discomfort.
Dr. Lin’s technique, skill, and keen aesthetic sense are essential to achieving a smooth, uniform finish without lumps and bumps that look natural and not overdone. For example, he not only injects the lips but the surrounding area to showcase the new volumized lips. No duck lips or trout pouts here—just the beautiful, natural looking lips that we wish we were born with.
There may be slight bruising, redness, or swelling at site of the injection. The rate of recovery will vary from person to person. To minimize the side effects, we advise our patients to take Boiron Arnica at least 3 days prior to treatment and continue 3 days after treatment. This can be purchased directly through Mill Creek Skin & Laser Center. Should bruising occur, we have a complimentary laser that helps speed up the bruise recovery time. It is important to read and follow the to ensure a positive result.
Dr. Lin provides a complimentary follow-up review appointment two weeks after treatment.
Due to possible side effects of bruising, patients are advised to schedule this treatment 21 to 30 days prior to any upcoming events.
Our patients are able to see the results instantly. Lips are fuller and plumper and you will be able to see the lift and rebalance of the face as well as the contour of a more youthful appearance.
How long the results last will depend on the area of treatment and patient. Dermal fillers typically last up to a year or more before touch-up treatments are needed. However, the lip area typically lasts about 3-5 months due to vascularity. SkinVive results last up to 6 months.
Added longevity can be achieved by returning for touch-ups while some filler still exists since the body will usually continue to respond to some degree with collagen production around these products.
With regular touch ups, over time, many patients report that less product and less frequent procedures are required to maintain results.
