What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to add volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours. Made from substances like hyaluronic acid, which naturally occurs in the skin, fillers help restore a youthful appearance by replenishing lost fullness and improving skin texture. They can be used to lift the cheeks, define the jawline, fill in deep wrinkles, and enhance the lips, offering natural-looking results without the need for surgery or extended recovery time.

Our Filler Treatments

Juvéderm

Juvéderm is a gel filler comprised of hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally present in the body and provides volume and structure to the skin. Juvéderm can be used to address smile lines, marionette lines, or areas of volume loss. It works by replenishing the body’s supply of hyaluronic acid in targeted areas. Our provider injects Juvéderm into facial zones that exhibit signs of aging, particularly around the mouth. In clinical studies, this treatment has been shown to last for 12 to 18 months.

Radiesse

Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA), which is designed to turn back the hands of time by replenishing lost volume in the facial features. One of the main causes of wrinkles and fine lines is the loss of collagen. Radiesse is unique in that, once injected, it provides structure to the skin and stimulates the growth of new collagen, offering a natural defense against further wrinkles and fine lines. Radiesse can target wrinkles and skin folds around your mouth, nose, and other areas of volume loss.

Restylane

Restylane is similar to Juvéderm in that it contains hyaluronic acid and can be used to add volume to the skin, particularly around the nose, eyes, and mouth. Restylane is also approved for adding fullness to the lips, which can diminish with age.

How Do I know Which Filler is Right For Me?

Filler Injection Procedure

Consultation and Assessment

Before treatment begins, patients meet with our provider to discuss their goals and determine the best type of filler for their needs. During this consultation, we evaluate facial structure, skin quality, and areas of volume loss to create a customized plan that enhances natural features while maintaining facial balance.

Skin Preparation

The skin is gently cleansed to remove any oils, makeup, or impurities that could interfere with the procedure. A topical numbing cream is often applied to minimize discomfort and ensure a more comfortable experience throughout the treatment.

Marking the Injection Sites

Once the skin is prepared, our provider carefully marks the specific injection sites where the filler will be placed. These markings guide precise placement to achieve even, natural-looking results that blend smoothly with the surrounding areas.

Administering the Filler

Using fine needles, our provider injects the filler beneath the skin in targeted areas. The technique and depth of injection vary depending on the treatment area and desired results. The filler is then gently massaged to ensure smooth distribution and natural contouring of the treated area.

Final Evaluation

After the injections, we review the results and may make minor adjustments for balance and symmetry. Patients can immediately notice improvements in volume and facial definition, resulting in a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.

Aftercare Tips

After filler treatment, it’s important to care for your skin properly to support the best possible results. While minor swelling or tenderness may occur, there is minimal downtime, and most patients can return to their usual activities immediately. However, it is crucial to follow our recommendations:

Avoid touching or pressing on the treatment areas for at least 24 hours.
Refrain from strenuous exercise or heat exposure, such as saunas, for the first day.
Keep the skin clean and avoid applying makeup immediately after treatment.
Use a cool compress to help reduce minor swelling if needed.

You’ll notice immediate improvement in facial volume and contour, with results becoming even more refined as any swelling subsides.

Other Procedures

Botox

Botox is an injectable treatment designed to smooth lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements, such as frowning or squinting. It works by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles, creating a smoother, more youthful appearance without altering natural expression. Our Scottsdale Botox injectors use advanced techniques to deliver precise, natural-looking results that refresh your look while maintaining facial balance.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that stimulates the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin. Using tiny, controlled micro-injuries, this treatment helps improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of scars, and promote a more radiant complexion. It’s a popular option for those seeking smoother, firmer skin with minimal downtime and lasting rejuvenation.

Who Can Benefit from Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are ideal for individuals looking to address signs of facial aging or restore a more youthful appearance. They can enhance facial contours, soften nasolabial folds, and smooth vertical lip lines for a refreshed, natural look. Fillers are also effective for improving the appearance of sagging skin, lifting hollow cheeks, and correcting areas affected by age-related volume loss.

During a thorough consultation, our provider reviews your aesthetic goals and medical history to determine if fillers are a safe and suitable option for your needs.

What Are The Difference Between Filler and Botox

Botox and dermal fillers serve different purposes in facial rejuvenation. Botox works by relaxing targeted facial muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated expressions, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, restore lost volume, smooth deeper folds, and enhance facial contours, helping to improve overall facial balance and structure.

How Long Do Fillers Last?

The duration of dermal fillers varies depending on the type of filler used, the area treated, and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Most hyaluronic acid fillers last between 6 and 18 months, gradually breaking down and being absorbed by the body over time. Areas with more movement, like the lips, may require more frequent touch-ups, while results in areas like the cheeks can last longer.
