Hyaluronic acid gel injected precisely to restore volume, define contours, and smooth deep folds — with results that look and feel completely natural.
Dermal fillers are injectable gels — most commonly hyaluronic acid — that add volume, smooth lines, and restore structural support to the face. Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in your skin, which makes it well-tolerated and reversible.
Common treatment areas include nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, lip volume and definition, cheek augmentation, tear troughs under the eyes, and jawline contouring. Each area calls for a different product and technique.
Results are visible immediately and last 6 to 18 months depending on the product used and the area treated. Denser fillers placed deeper last longer; softer lip fillers metabolize more quickly.
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours and blood thinners such as aspirin or ibuprofen for 1 week if medically appropriate — this minimizes bruising. Come with clean skin. Share any allergies or previous filler history with your provider at the consultation.
A topical numbing cream is applied and left on for 20 to 30 minutes before injections begin. Most hyaluronic acid fillers contain lidocaine, which further reduces discomfort as the product is placed. The appointment takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on the number of areas treated.
Some swelling and bruising is normal for 3 to 5 days — especially in the lips, which tend to swell more prominently. Avoid strenuous exercise, heat, and direct sun for 24 hours. Massage only if your provider specifically instructs it. Results continue to settle and improve over 2 weeks.
