At Wellness Skin Aesthetics, we use FDA-approved dermal fillers known for their safety and effectiveness. The most commonly used fillers for smile lines include:

  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers: Popular for their ability to attract and retain moisture, providing hydration and volume. Common brands include:
  • Juvederm Ultra XC: Specifically designed for moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds.
  • Restylane Refyne and Defyne: Tailored to treat deeper lines and folds while maintaining natural facial expressions.
  • Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers: Known for their thicker consistency, these fillers provide more substantial volume restoration. A well-known brand includes:
  • Radiesse: Offers immediate volume and stimulates collagen production for long-term benefits.
  • Poly-L-lactic Acid Fillers: These fillers stimulate collagen production over time, providing gradual and long-lasting results. A leading brand includes:
  • Sculptra: Ideal for those seeking a gradual, natural improvement in volume and contour.

  • 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.
  • 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.

  • Complementary Treatments: Combine with Botox to address dynamic wrinkles and enhance facial harmony.
  • Treatment Sequence: It’s often beneficial to address overall facial volume with fillers before refining fine details with other treatments.
  • Contraindications: Consult with your practitioner to ensure that combined treatments are safe and suitable for your specific needs.
