New filler uses light to boost skin's beauty
Move over Juvederm and Restalyne. Make way for a new skin filler. Johns Hopkins researchers say they have improved the technology on popular injectable hyaluronic gels that gloriously restored skin?s volume and wiped away wrinkles -- but sagged or faded away after about a year. With the new procedure, scientists inject a liquid, mold and massage it, and lock it in place with a two-minute treatment of green LED light. The implants last much longer, and look and feel more natural.
