How Dermal Fillers Works
Facial Analysis & Treatment Planning
Your injector assesses facial structure, volume loss, and symmetry to develop a customized treatment plan for natural-looking results.
Numbing & Preparation
A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area. Most fillers also contain lidocaine for added comfort during injection.
Precise Filler Injection
Using a fine needle or cannula, hyaluronic acid gel is strategically placed beneath the skin to restore volume, smooth lines, or enhance contours.
Sculpting & Assessment
The injector gently massages and molds the filler into place, checking symmetry from multiple angles to ensure a balanced result.
Aftercare Instructions
Ice packs reduce swelling. Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours and excess heat for 48 hours. Final results settle within 1-2 weeks.

|---|---|
| Dermal FillersCurrent | $600–$2,000 per syringe · 30–60 minutes · 1–3 days mild swelling |

Frequently Asked Questions about Dermal Fillers
How long do fillers last?
Depending on the type and area, fillers last 6-18 months.
What is the difference between Botox and fillers?
Botox relaxes muscles (motion wrinkles), while fillers add volume (static lines and hollows).
Are fillers safe?
Dermal fillers can cause serious complications, including accidental injection into a blood vessel. FDA approval is product- and indication-specific, so ask a licensed clinician which product is proposed and whether that use is approved.
