Dermal Fillers and Injectables

Injectable dermal fillers are gel-like substances used to restore volume, fill-in fine lines to deep creases, or enhance facial contours from the inside-out. In the last decade, the evolution of dermal fillers and their use has dramatically changed how we approach facial aesthetics. Dermal fillers are an increasingly popular choice for facial rejuvenation because they are a safe, flexible, and immediate solution to looking younger and refreshed without the cost, risk, and down-time of surgery. Appropriately and artistically applied, the results are beautiful and natural-appearing.

There are a variety of FDA-approved dermal filler products that we can use to achieve your aesthetic goals. Each has slightly different characteristics in terms of texture, density, optimal injection depth, and duration, which means that certain fillers work better for certain areas of concern. Most fillers are infused with lidocaine to help minimize discomfort during and after treatment. Common issues dermal fillers can address:

  • soften lines around nose and mouth. (a.k.a. marionette lines, smile lines, and parentheses)

  • enhance & restore volume to sunken cheeks and temples.

  • diminish vertical lip lines

  • plump & enhance the lips

  • smooth out a chin crease

  • hand rejuvenation
