Dermal Fillers come in various formulations, each designed to address specific concerns and areas of the face. The most commonly used types include:
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers: These fillers are popular for their ability to attract and retain moisture, providing hydration and volume. Common brands include Juvederm, Restylane, and Belotero.
- Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers: Known for their thicker consistency, these fillers are ideal for deeper wrinkles and volume restoration. Radiesse is a well-known brand in this category.
- Poly-L-lactic Acid Fillers: These fillers stimulate collagen production over time, providing gradual and long-lasting results. Sculptra is a leading brand of poly-L-lactic acid fillers.
- Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Fillers: These contain tiny beads suspended in collagen, offering semi-permanent results. Bellafill is a notable PMMA filler.
Dermal Fillers can be injected into various areas of the face to enhance your natural beauty, including:
- Cheeks: Restore volume and create a lifted appearance.
- Lips: Add fullness and definition for a plumper look.
- Nasolabial Folds: Smooth out deep lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth.
- Marionette Lines: Reduce lines extending from the corners of the mouth to the chin.
- Under-Eye Hollows: Fill in hollows to reduce the appearance of dark circles and bags.
- Jawline and Chin: Enhance contours and create a more defined profile.
- Temples: Restore volume to the temples for a more youthful appearance.
At Wellness Skin Aesthetics, we prioritize your safety and satisfaction. All our dermal fillers are FDA-approved, ensuring they meet the highest standards of quality and efficacy. Our experienced practitioners are trained in the latest injection techniques to provide you with safe and effective treatments.
While dermal fillers are generally safe, they do carry some potential risks and side effects, including:
- Swelling and Bruising: Temporary swelling and bruising at the injection site are common and usually resolve within a few days.
- Redness and Tenderness: Mild redness and tenderness may occur but typically subside quickly.
- Allergic Reactions: Although rare, allergic reactions can occur. It's important to inform your practitioner of any known allergies.
- Infection: As with any injection, there is a slight risk of infection. Following post-treatment care instructions helps minimize this risk.
- Lumps and Bumps: Occasionally, lumps or bumps may form under the skin. These can often be massaged out or, in some cases, require additional treatment.
Dermal fillers can be effectively combined with Botox and other injectable treatments to enhance overall facial aesthetics. However, there are some considerations:
- Complementary Treatments: Botox and derma fillers can work together to address different types of wrinkles and volume loss. Botox relaxes muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles, while fillers add volume to smooth static wrinkles and enhance contours.
- Treatment Sequence: It's often recommended to get Botox first and then follow with fillers. This allows the Botox to take effect and the fillers to be placed more precisely.
- Contraindications: Combining treatments should be done carefully and under the guidance of an experienced practitioner. Some patients may have specific contraindications that need to be considered.
- Consultation and Facial Analysis: Our practitioners assess your facial structure and discuss your aesthetic goals to determine the most suitable filler and treatment plan.
- Preparation: The treatment area is cleaned and numbed with a topical anesthetic to ensure comfort during the procedure.
- Injection: The chosen filler is carefully injected into the targeted areas using fine needles or cannulas.
- Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, you may experience minor swelling or bruising, which typically subsides within a few days.
- Avoid Blood Thinners: Discontinue the use of blood-thinning medications (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain supplements) for at least 24-48 hours prior to your appointment.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin well-hydrated.
- Inform Your Practitioner: Provide a complete medical history, including any allergies or previous filler treatments.
