ANGELA
WILLIAMS (VOICE-OVER)
SUPER: Dallas
:02-07 With
beautiful teeth, Angela Williams
wants
to minimize what she calls
a
gummy smile by making her lips
fuller.
SUPER: Angela Williams :12-17 ("The
top lip, we'll give it more volume
Restalyne
Patient so
I won't see as much gum. So I'm hoping
that's
what we can do.")
MARINA
LANTSMAN Marina
Lantsman has a different problem.
She
hopes to reduce vertical lines of aging by enlarging her upper lip.
SUPER: Marina Lantsman :26-31 ("The
upper lip lines, that's actually my
Restalyne
Patient concern.
I want to reduce the lines around
my
lips.")
INJECTIONS Both
women are undergoing
injections
of Restylane, a new
filler
material that has replaced the
once
popular collagen.
SUPER: Dr. Kevin McBride ("Restylane is hyaluronic acid,
which
Oral Surgeon :43-48 sounds
fancy but it's the same material
or
chemical that's in our bodies. It's
sort
of like a lubricant and a glue that's
throughout
all the tissues that helps hold
the
tissue together.")
TWO-SHOT Dr.
Kevin McBride is an oral
and
maxillofacial surgeon who
performs
many cosmetic
procedures
including lip enhancement.
DR.
MCBRIDE ("It's
a plumping agent, a filler. It will
fill
in lines and depressions.")
MORE
INJECTIONS While
Restylane tends to last longer
than
collagen, its effects are still temporary.
DR.
MCBRIDGE ("You'll
get nine months or maybe more
from
Restylane.")
ANGELA
WILLIAMS ("It
was a lot easier than I expected.")
