What Are Aesthetic Fillers?
Aesthetic fillers, or dermal fillers, are non-surgical solutions designed to smooth out wrinkles, restore lost volume, and enhance your natural features, giving you a rejuvenated and youthful appearance. These fillers are injectable gels made from substances naturally found in the body, with the most common type being hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid helps keep your skin hydrated and plump.

Common Questions about Fillers

The duration of filler results varies depending on several factors, such as the type of filler used, the area treated, and a person's metabolism. Hyaluronic acid fillers generally last anywhere from 6 to 18 months, while some thicker formulations may provide longer-lasting results.

Your filler treatment will involve a consultation with our trained NP Samantha to discuss your goals and medical history. When it's time for the procedure, the provider will cleanse the treatment area and administer the filler using a fine needle. The provider can also use a topical numbing cream on the treatment area before the injections begin. Most treatments take 15 to 30 minutes, and you can resume normal activities immediately afterward.

Discomfort during filler injections is usually minimal, especially if you request a topical numbing cream before the procedure to minimize discomfort.

Common side effects of filler injections are usually temporary but include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site. If you experience any of these side effects, they should resolve within a few days to a week. While rare, serious complications such as infection or vascular occlusion can occur and should be addressed promptly by a healthcare provider.
