BENEFITS OF DERMAL FILLERS
The main benefit of fillers is that the effects are essentially instant and there is virtually no downtime. The procedure is very fast, taking less than an hour with very minimal discomfort. Many patients report there is NO pain at all. Other than a topical anesthetic, the procedure is drug-free and there are no stitches. You can have a rejuvenating treatment over your lunch hour and return to work. Some fillers have long-lasting results, but most are eventually absorbed back into the body.
WHICH TYPE OF FILLER SHOULD I CHOOSE?
There are many approved facial fillers on the market, each with its own recommended applications. It is almost impossible to know which product will give you the result you seek without professional guidance. Therefore consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is vital when considering rejuvenation options for your face. Dr. Correa will recommend the best product for your procedure during your pre-treatment consultation. This will ensure that you will look refreshed and more youthful without drawing attention to the fact that you have had rejuvenation treatments.
How do Dermal Fillers Work?
Dermal fillers are made of biocompatible material that is injected into specific areas of the face. Using fillers will:
Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
Decrease the depth of laugh lines and frown lines
Plump out cheek areas that have begun to sag
Minimize the appearance of acne and other scars
It requires an extensive understanding of facial structure and the muscles responsible for creating expressions to successfully use these products. Otherwise, the result can be very artificial looking.
Types of Fillers
Some fillers such as Juvéderm® and Sculptra™ contain hyaluronic acid which stimulates the body to produce more collagen. Over time the results of these treatments continue to improve as the collagen is increased. These treatments can last up to 18 months depending on your facial care regimen.
Radiesse™ is an FDA approved dermal filler for the face. It contains another collagen stimulating substance, calcium hydroxyapatite, which plumps out the hand, smoothes out wrinkles and fine lines and continues to improve over time.
Restylane offers a wide variety of fillers, including Lyft, Silk, Refyne, and Defyne.
FIRST TIME FILLER? HERE’S WHAT TO EXPECT
BEFORE
Before your appointment, you will need a consultation with Dr. Correa both for safety and to discuss your concerns. He will evaluate your facial and hand structure to determine if the result you are seeking can be satisfactorily achieved with fillers. If the effects of aging or skin changes are very pronounced, he might suggest that it is time for you to consider surgery. He will ask health-related questions to determine if there are any health risks associated with providing you with this type of treatment such as allergies or sensitivity. However, the vast majority of people who see Dr. Correa for dermal facial fillers are very good candidates for fillers and enjoy the rapid improvement in their appearance that these products deliver.
