At CJ Laser, we use hyaluronic acid based fillers. Hyaluronic acid is naturally produced by your body and already found in your skin and cartilage. Filler is used to eliminate wrinkles, plump, and hydrate lips, replace soft-tissue volume loss, volumize creases and folds of the face, sculpt and contour.
