What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to
reduce the visible signs of aging, enhance facial contours, and restore lost volume. As we age, collagen and fat diminish in the face, leading to wrinkles, folds, and hollow areas. Fillers help
reverse these changes, improving skin texture and support.
Main Categories of Dermal Fillers
There are two main categories of dermal fillers:
1. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers
- Brands include
Juvederm®, Restylane®, Belotero®
- Made from
hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that helps skin retain moisture and elasticity
- Ideal for treating:
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Cheeks
- Lips
- Jawline
- Results are
immediate, reversible, and typically last
6–18 months
2. Biostimulatory Fillers
- Brands include
Radiesse® and
Sculptra Aesthetic®
- Work by
stimulating collagen production for gradual, long-lasting improvements
- Great for:
- Mid-face volume restoration
- Jawline definition
- Body areas like the hands, chest, or buttocks
- Results develop over time and may last
up to 2 years or longer
- Not reversible, but provide a natural-looking enhancement
Where Can Fillers Be Used?

face, but they are increasingly being utilized for
body rejuvenation and
collagen stimulation in other areas.

What to Expect After Filler Treatment
- Immediate results, though initial swelling and bruising may mask the full effect
- Most patients return to normal activities right after treatment

Frequently Asked Questions About Fillers
How long do dermal fillers last?
The longevity depends on the type of filler, area treated, and your metabolism. Hyaluronic acid fillers typically last 6 to 18 months, while biostimulatory fillers like Radiesse or Sculptra can last up to 2 years or more.
Can fillers be reversed?
Yes—hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm and Restylane can be safely dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. Biostimulatory fillers are not reversible.
Will I look unnatural or overfilled?
Not with us. Our philosophy is rooted in subtle, natural enhancement. You will look refreshed—not different.
Do filler injections hurt?
Discomfort is minimal. Most fillers contain a numbing agent (lidocaine) and we may also apply topical anesthetic before treatment.
What should I avoid after treatment?
Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and touching the treated area for 24 hours. Sun exposure should be limited while healing.
