What Are Dermal Fillers?
Injectable dermal fillers go by many names, including facial fillers or soft tissue fillers. They consist of hyaluronic acid (a natural component of the skin’s connective tissue), poly-l-lactic acid, and other active ingredients that add facial volume, fill deeper wrinkles, and improve the quality of your skin for a refreshed, youthful appearance.
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers, such as Restylane Lyft, Kysse, Refyne, Defyne, Juvederm, Voluma, and Versa, are especially popular for their ability to add volume and deliver instant results. Sculptra stimulates collagen production to turn back the clock on skin aging and ensure long-lasting results. By working with a skilled provider in South Florida, you can trust that your treatment will be tailored to your needs, whether you want to enhance your natural beauty, reduce lines, or achieve a smoother, more youthful complexion.
Dr. Mike and our team are fully trained to inject dermal fillers properly and ensure the best results. Our practice is dedicated to expertise and delivering tailored, natural results for every patient.
Treatment Areas
Fillers are most commonly used on the face, in areas like the lips, cheeks, temples, under eyes, and jawline, to address deep wrinkles, but they can also be utilized in other parts of the body, like when using Sculptra to enhance the buttocks. Dermal fillers can smooth wrinkles, fill in deep facial folds, add volume, and contour the face to create a more youthful and refined look.
Candidates for Fillers
If you’re considering facial rejuvenation in Fort Lauderdale, FL, dermal fillers may be the perfect solution to help you achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance. Ideal candidates for dermal fillers are individuals looking to reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging and achieve long-lasting improvements without undergoing cosmetic surgery. Whether you’re hoping to restore volume to your cheeks, smooth out nasolabial folds or marionette lines, or add subtle enhancement to your lips or chin, fillers offer a versatile, non-surgical approach to facial enhancement. Many patients also choose fillers to treat facial scars, enhance the contours of their nose or cheeks, or address other specific areas of concern. Additionally, fillers can be combined with Botox to simultaneously address dynamic wrinkles (like frown lines or crow's feet) that form as a result of overactive facial muscles and repeated facial expressions.
During your consultation at our Fort Lauderdale clinic, our experienced medical professionals will carefully assess your skin, facial structure, and unique concerns to determine if dermal fillers are the best treatment for you. We’ll discuss your goals, review your medical history, and ensure that you’re a safe candidate for injectable treatments. While most patients enjoy great results from fillers, those with certain allergies or medical conditions may require alternative cosmetic procedures.
Dermal Filler Treatment
The dermal filler procedure is relatively quick and straightforward. It’s an outpatient procedure that involves dermal fillers being injected into specific areas of the face using a fine needle. Most patients do not find these injections to be painful, but a topical numbing cream can be applied if desired. Most treatments only take 30-60 minutes, so you can easily fit an appointment into your busy schedule.
Dermal Filler Recovery
There is minimal recovery time after dermal filler treatments, and patients can enjoy immediate results. Mild swelling, bruising, and pinprick bleeding may occur, but will only last 1-2 days. Over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication and cold compresses can minimize swelling and discomfort. We also recommend that patients avoid strenuous exercise and sun exposure for one day to achieve optimal results. Avoid massaging or touching the treated areas.
Dermal Filler Results
When comparing fillers to other procedures, it’s important to note that surgical procedures often have permanent results, while fillers are temporary and can be adjusted over time. Hyaluronic acid fillers can last anywhere from 6-12 months, while Sculptra can provide visible improvement for up to two years.
