Good candidates for dermal fillers are healthy non-smokers who have cosmetic concerns related to their facial volume and proportions. Many patients are experiencing age-related volume loss in the cheeks, tear troughs, and temples, while others are looking to enhance the lips, cheeks, nose, or jawline.

What Is Dermal Filler Recovery Like?
Dermal fillers require little to no downtime but come with some post-injection instructions. We ask that you avoid sun exposure, high heat, alcohol, and strenuous exercise for the first couple of days. Bruising and swelling are possible, but these temporary effects tend to fade within a week.
Your results should be established after 2 weeks. At this point, you can schedule a follow-up appointment to touch up or add further volume if desired.
Dermal Filler FAQs
How long will my results last?
The longevity of your results depends on the specific product formulation and where it has been injected. Denser formulas can last up to 2 years, while thinner fillers in more mobile areas of the face tend to last around 6 to 9 months.
Can I dissolve my fillers?
If you are unhappy with your results or don’t want to wait until the filler is metabolized, we can dissolve your filler with hyaluronidase, an injectable enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid.
Can I combine dermal fillers with other treatments?
Yes. Dermal fillers are commonly paired with BOTOX® Cosmetic to treat both static and dynamic wrinkles at once. This “liquid facelift” provides comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Dermal fillers can also be used in conjunction with other med spa treatments.
