What are dermal fillers?

 

Dermal fillers are used to fill skin that has lost tissue volume, improving the shape and contour of the face and facial structures.

​

Brands of dermal fillers include:

• Juvéderm®

• Voluma®

• Volbella®

• Vollure™

Our providers will conduct a thorough consultation to help you decide which filler best suits your needs.  Fillers can last 6-18 months and will depend on the filler selected and targeted area.

​

Common areas where filler is used are:

• Nasal labial folds — the lines from the corners of your nose to the corners of your mouth

• Marionette lines — lines from the corners of your mouth that run toward your chin

• Lips

• Facial wrinkles or creases

• Vertical lip lines

• Corners of the mouth

​

The results will be immediately ​noticeable after the procedure.  Swelling is a common occurrence after filler application.
