What are facial Fillers?

facial fillers are gel-like substances that are injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines and soften creases, or enhance facial contours.

The concept of injectable fillers has been around as early as the 1800s, when medical professionals took fatty tissue from one area of the body, and injected it into another area to restore lost volume to facial defects and scars. Fillers as we know them today have been around since the 1980s.

Why Facial Fillers?

Many visible signs of aging can be traced back to volume loss. This is because as your facial tissue thins, areas can look a little hollow.

Dermal fillers can replace lost volume to help smooth wrinkles, plump the lips, and restore a more youthful appearance. Fillers should look and feel natural if done correctly.

Other benefits of facial fillers include:

Smoothing out lines around nose and mouth
Enhancing and restoring volume to sunken cheeks or temples
Diminishing vertical lip lines
Plumping or enhancing the lips
Smoothing out a chin crease
Improving symmetry among facial features

What are the Types of Facial Fillers?

Hyaluronic acid fillers

These tend to be the most temporary option
Often recommended for first-time filler patients
Typically last from 6 to 18 months
The body gradually and naturally absorbs the particles
Often gives a more natural look
Certain HA fillers, such as VOLUMA, are formulated to last longer, but are usually limited to certain areas, such as the cheeks

FDA approved HA fillers include:

Synthetic fillers

Tend to last longer
Not absorbed by the body
A great option for the right patient
Must commit to results that will be there for six months to five or more years
Choose an experienced, qualified provider whose aesthetic style you like

FDA approved synthetic fillers include:

Fat injections

Meant to last indefinitely
May overfill the treatment area, as some fat is not expected to survive
May result in an initially fuller look that will gradually settle into a more natural appearance

Which Facial Filler is Right for Me?

With so many dermal filler products on the market, it can be difficult to know which option is best for you without guidance.

Each product is uniquely formulated to have a certain texture, density, and injection depth, which means that certain fillers work better for certain areas of concern. You may also need a combination of fillers, depending on the treatment area.

We know it can be overwhelming with so many products to chose from. Schedule a consultation with us to discuss which products are best for you!

What Can I Expect?

Dermal fillers are temporary treatments for facial aging. Keep in mind that ongoing treatments are suggested for long-term results. We will help you establish a treatment plan.

How long the effects of dermal fillers will last depends on:

The product
The area of treatment
The patient

Generally speaking, the denser the product is and the more deeply it is injected, the longer it will last, although this is not a hard and fast rule.

To maintain your results we will work with you to adjust the amount and techniques as necessary.

What to expect on the day of your facial fillers:

At your appointment you will be guided into a comfortable room and the area will be cleaned.
You may receive a topical anesthetic to numb the area and minimize discomfort.
Many filler products also contain a mild anesthetic which helps to minimize your discomfort during and after your treatment.
Your provider will inject the filler beneath the skin and give you an ice pack afterwards.
You can usually return to normal activities following your visit.
