Aesthetic Fillers

Reduce deep facial lines without compromising your natural beauty—or expression.

Aesthetic Fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to treat deeper lines, and restore youthful contours of the face by adding volume or plumpness.

 
 

Frequently Asked Questions about Aesthetic Fillers

  • Aesthetic fillers are gel-like substances composed of hyaluronic acid, injected under the skin or into the dermis to restore volume, smooth out lines, and enhance facial features. They work by adding fullness to areas that have thinned due to aging.

  • They're designed to treat deeper lines, enhance lips, lift cheeks, and improve other facial contours that may have lost volume over time.

  • Fillers work by plumping up the targeted areas. They're injected directly into the skin using a fine needle, with the depth depending on the desired outcome. Over 2 to 4 weeks, the hyaluronic acid attracts water to it and the filler gently expands or “plumps up” the area it was injected.

  • Fillers are ideal for individuals looking to address signs of aging, enhance facial features, or restore volume without undergoing surgery.

  • Yes, Aesthetic fillers are generally considered safe when administered by qualified professionals AND injected into only appropriate areas.

  • Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These usually resolve within a few days.

  • While some discomfort is possible, many fillers contain a numbing agent to minimize pain, and we apply additional topical numbing as needed.

  • You might experience mild tenderness, swelling, or redness, but these effects usually subside within a few hours to days.

  • Yes, the aesthetic fillers that we use (which are all of the Allergan branded fillers including Juvederm, Volbella and Voluma) are FDA approved for specific uses in facial rejuvenation.

  • The procedure is relatively quick, often taking 30 minutes to an hour. Most people see immediate results, with full effects visible in a couple of weeks.

  • Results vary based on the type of filler and individual factors but can last anywhere from 6 months to over a year.

  • While both address signs of aging, fillers work best with deeper lines, restoring volume and contouring, whereas Botox® relaxes the muscles that cause fine lines during facial expression, preventing creases from forming.

  • While they can enhance and rejuvenate, fillers won't provide the same lifting effect as surgical facelifts or alter your facial structure fundamentally.
