What are Fillers Made With?
There are a variety of FDA approved filler products that cosmetic provider use. In general, fillers are categorized by the substance they are made from. A note for your safety: always make sure that you are receiving FDA approved, brand name fillers, which are only available through a licensed Healthcare Provider.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA)
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that already found in your skin. It helps keep skin plump.
Why are dermal fillers known as “fillers.”
A common concern dermal fillers address are loss of volume & enhance contouring, and/or hollowness under eyes AKA “eye bags”. HA dermal fillers are typically soft and gel-like substance that our experienced staff injects in your concerned area. The results are temporary, lasting 6 to 12 months or longer before the body absorbs it.
What to Expect During Treatment
Dermal filler are injected into your concerned areas with a tiny needle during an office visit. Your initial treatment will begin with a consultation, during which you will meet with your Aesthetic Medical provider to discuss your concerns and goals.
Consultation
During your consultation, your licensed health care provider will evaluate your area of concern and review your medical history. While the risks associated with dermal fillers are minimal, you need to fully disclose your medical history prior to treatment, as certain allergies, skin and neurological conditions, or medications can jeopardize your safety or results. For instance, you need to tell your cosmetic Nurse Practitioner if you have been taking NSAIDs (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen) or blood thinners, as these increase the likelihood of bruising.
Your injectable filler treatment
Just before the actual treatment, the area will be cleaned, and you may be given a topical anesthetic to numb the area prior to injection. Many filler products also contain lidocaine, a mild anesthetic, which is intended to help minimize discomfort during and after your treatment. Your provider will then inject a precise amount of filler strategically beneath the skin.
Depending on the product and the areas treated, you should be able to notice results immediately after receiving filler injections. Some patients experience mild bruising and swelling, but these are temporary and should subside over the days following treatment. You will be able to go back to your normal activities right after treatment, but your Aesthetic Medical Provider may ask you to take several days off from exercise or other strenuous activity.
