As we age, our skin loses its youthful fullness. Fillers help restore lost fullness to the face, lips, and hands. Fillers are popular for several reasons: patients can return to everyday activities immediately after getting most fillers and the immediate results that many types of fillers deliver. Patients also like that they can get this treatment during an office visit.
We use the safest and most advanced FDA approved products.
Dermal fillers add volume to hollow or sunken areas, support skin from sagging and stimulate collagen and skin rejuvenation.

Before the procedure:
It is important to start with a consultation to choose the right product and discuss expectations. During the consultation, the treatment protocol will be devised and the number of visits needed identified in order to achieve the best results. Before getting the injections, you may need ice, an anesthetic applied to the skin, or other means based on the site to be treated.

Expectations:
The procedure may vary based on the filler used, the part of the body to be treated, and your medical history. Here are some general guidelines about what you can expect:

• Most filler treatments take between 15 and 30 minutes and require one office visit.
• You may feel a stinging or stretching sensation as the filler is injected.
• Most fillers fill the skin, so they produce immediate  or close to immediate
  results.

A filler also can stimulate your body to produce collagen, but this
takes time. The effects last between 4 and 12 months based on the product used, age of the patient and site of injection as well as extrinsic factors such as smoking, sun tanning, and significant weight loss.

• Most fillers do not cause downtime.

After the procedure:
We suggest:

• Wait until the next day to exercise or do any other strenuous activity.
• Stay out of the sun and do not use a tanning bed or other type of indoor tanning.
• Avoid touching the treated area for three days, unless you receive instructions to massage the area.
• Some patients have minor, temporary side effects where they were injected.
  These may include redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising (occasionally).
