Dermal Fillers
What Is Juvederm?
Juvéderm is a popular choice for dermal fillers. This treatment uses hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in your skin, to add volume and reduce wrinkles. It’s commonly used to enhance lips, add subtle volume to cheeks, and smooth out fine lines around the mouth and nose. Juvederm is known for its wide range of fillers suited for different areas and desired effects. Enjoy results that can last up to a year.
What Is Restylane?
Restylane is another popular dermal filler choice that is commonly used. Like Juvéderm, it uses hyaluronic acid, a natural skin component, to restore volume and fullness. It excels at adding volume and definition, making it a popular choice for sculpting cheeks, filling in deeper wrinkles, and restoring volume to the under-eye area. Restylane offers a thicker consistency that provides longer-lasting results. Enjoy natural-looking results that can last up to 18 months.
Dermal Filler Treatment Areas
Dermal fillers like Juvederm and Restylane are commonly used to treat several areas of the face:
- Lips – Enhance volume and shape for a fuller, more defined look with our lip fillers in Houston.
- Cheeks – Add volume and lift to create a youthful contour with cheek fillers.
- Nasolabial folds – Smooth out deep lines running from the nose to the mouth.
- Under-eye hollows – Reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollows for a refreshed look.
- Marionette lines – Minimize the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down to the chin.
Procedure Details for Dermal Fillers
During your dermal filler treatment, a fine needle is used to inject the filler into the targeted areas. The procedure is typically quick, lasting about 30 minutes. Before the injection, a topical anesthetic may be applied to keep you comfortable. You might feel a slight pinch or pressure during the injection, but overall, the process is relatively painless.
After getting your cosmetic injectables at our Houston practice, you can return to your regular activities immediately. However, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for the first 24 hours.
Recovery and Results from Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers offer minimal recovery time, making them a popular choice for those seeking cosmetic treatments. You may experience some swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects are usually mild and resolve within a few days.
The results of these dermal fillers will be visible immediately, with full effects appearing within a week as any swelling subsides. Dermal fillers offer a quick, effective way to achieve smoother, more youthful-looking skin without the downtime associated with surgical procedures. The length of time the results of dermal fillers last can vary depending on the specific product used and the treatment area, but they typically last for 6 to 18 months.
Cost of Dermal Filler Treatments
The cost of dermal filler treatments varies depending on the type of filler used, the amount required, and the treatment area. You will know more about this during your consultation with Dr. Baylan.
