Dermal fillers are popular because they offer visible improvement with minimal downtime. Here’s what happens beneath the surface when filler is placed.
Replacing lost volume
With age, the face loses fat, collagen, and bone support. Fillers replace some of that volume, lifting areas that have flattened and softening folds.
Attracting moisture
Hyaluronic acid fillers bind water, which adds hydration and a natural plumpness to the treated area.
Stimulating collagen
Some fillers, such as Radiesse®, also encourage your skin to produce new collagen, improving firmness over time.
Common treatment areas
- Lips
- Cheeks
- Under-eye hollows
- Smile and marionette lines
- Jawline and chin
- Temples
How long fillers last
Results typically last from six months to two years, depending on the product and area.
