What You Need to Know About Dermal Fillers
Types of Fillers
There are several types of dermal fillers available, the most common ones being hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Juvederm and Restylane. Each type of filler is known for treating a certain area of the face. Your provider will recommend the best one to you based on the look you’re trying to achieve.
Treatment Areas
Fillers can work many different wonders. Areas they’re able to treat include the cheeks, chin, lips, under-eyes, smile lines, and jawline.
Consultation
Before undergoing treatment, you need to book a consultation with a licensed provider so they can assess if this is the right form of treatment for you.
Procedure
The procedure is usually very quick. After arriving, a topical anesthetic will be applied to the treatment area. After your injection has been administered, your provider will offer post-care instructions and schedule any follow-up appointments with you.
Results
The results of dermal fillers typically set in immediately after receiving treatment. However, the length in which results last depends on the filler received. Some fillers only last a few months whereas others last over a year.
Side Effects
It’s normal to see bruising or redness following your treatment. However, this and any swelling typically subside a few days after treatment. You should be able to resume day-to-day activities immediately following treatment.
Safety
Dermal fillers are a safe way to achieve a fuller look when administered by a licensed professional.
Maintenance
To maintain the results of your dermal fillers, you’ll need to regularly receive treatment. Your provider will create a treatment plan with you and schedule routine appointments to prolong your results.
