Dermal Fillers & Bundles

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They are made from various substances, such as hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, or poly-L-lactic acid, depending on the desired results

Providers inject dermal fillers into specific areas of the skin to restore volume or smooth out lines and wrinkles. They work by plumping up the skin and filling in depressions or folds, giving the face a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

Trained and experienced professionals generally consider dermal fillers safe when they administer them properly. As with any medical treatment, there are some risks, such as bruising, swelling, or infection, but these are typically minimal and temporary.

The results from dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers tend to last between 6 to 12 months, while others may last longer.

The procedure is generally not very painful. Most fillers contain lidocaine, a numbing agent that helps reduce discomfort during the injection. Patients often feel a mild stinging or pressure during the treatment, but most tolerate it well.

It’s best to wait at least 24 hours after receiving dermal fillers before applying makeup to the treated area. This helps reduce the risk of infection and allows the skin to settle.

To get the best results, avoid heavy exercise, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol consumption for 24 to 48 hours after the procedure. Also, don’t massage or rub the treated areas unless advised by your injector.

Good candidates for dermal fillers are generally healthy individuals who are looking to restore facial volume or smooth out wrinkles. Ideal candidates are non-smokers, have realistic expectations, and are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

Yes! Many people combine dermal fillers with Botox or other aesthetic treatments to achieve more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Your provider can create a personalized plan based on your goals.

If you’re unhappy with the results, you can dissolve hyaluronic acid-based fillers using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which quickly breaks down the filler.
