Dermal Fillers

Q & A

A:Yes, but with most dermal fillers you may also see continuous improved results over time.

A:Dermal fillers can be used to correct the parenthesis around the sides of the nose and mouth, to soften vertical lip lines, to build up cheek volume, and to lessen hollowing under the eyes.

A:Recovery can depend on the type of dermal filler used. We provide a list of do's and don'ts at your consultation but most people are able to go about normal activities after an injection. Occasionally minor bruising can result from the initial treatment but should resolve in one week to 10 days. Your injection specialist can discuss ways to prevent bruising and can also provide treatment to speed healing should any bruising occur. As with any injection procedure, it is recommended that you plan any injections (BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® and dermal fillers) at least 30 to 60 days before a big event.

A:The cost depends on the type and amount of dermal filler used. A precise figure can be determined at your consultation.
