What to Expect From Fillers

Are you experiencing facial lines or a loss of volume and fullness from your face? With age, your natural skin volume diminishes, making lines and wrinkles appear more visible. As skin begins to wrinkle and sag, years of sun exposure and your natural muscle movement lead to further tissue breakdown of the skin.

If you’re noticing the first signs of aging around your mouth, nose, cheeks, and eyes, dermal fillers can help tackle these concerns for a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

How dermal fillers work
Dermal fillers are very effective at smoothing lines and wrinkles, restoring cheek and lip volume, and reducing the early signs of aging.

Adding volume without surgery, injectable gel fillers treat static lines that are visible even when your facial muscles are at rest. Fillers also rejuvenate facial skin by lifting your cheeks, smoothing parentheses lines or vertical lip lines, and plumping the lips.

Formulated with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring component of your skin, Juvederm fillers help your skin retain moisture, encourage natural collagen production, and add volume to prevent your cheeks or lips from flattening and your skin from sagging.

Fillers are administered through very tiny facial injections to specific areas of the face, lifting and volumizing creases and folds, filling in lines or indentations, and adding fullness and volume to your lips. Minimally invasive, Juvederm fillers contain lidocaine to help minimize discomfort during your treatment.

What to expect
The process begins with an initial consultation to discuss your specific areas of concern and your goals. Dermal fillers are effective for both women and men, and you’re a good candidate for fillers if you live a healthy lifestyle, don’t smoke, and are committed to maintaining your skin health.

Treatment with fillers typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes per session, with visible results you can see immediately and instantly. After treatment, you can typically return to work or your other normal activities with no downtime, feeling more confident in your appearance.

Results of fillers
Depending on the area of your face, your lifestyle, genetics, and skin care regimen, results last from 6 months to 2 years. In the cheek area, fillers last up to 2 years. For facial lines and wrinkles, results last 12 to 18 months. Lip fillers typically last 6 months to 1 year. We encourage regular, ongoing treatment sessions to maintain your results and facial volume long-term.
