Filler injection results are typically immediate; the procedure is known for its minimal downtime.

The choice of filler depends on factors such as the specific area being treated, the desired outcome, and individual preferences.
Before undergoing a dermal filler injection, you’ll talk with a healthcare professional about what you want to achieve and any health concerns you have. They’ll clean and numb the area with topical anesthetic to make you more comfortable.
Then, using a tiny needle, they inject the filler where needed, to smooth wrinkles or add volume. Sometimes, they might gently massage the area.
After watching for a short time to ensure everything looks good, you can go home.
You’ll receive post-procedure instructions, which might be a follow-up appointment to check on progress.

While dermal fillers are generally considered safe when administered by qualified healthcare professionals, like any medical procedure, they do come with potential risks and side effects.
Common health risks associated with dermal fillers include:
While rare, infection is possible post-procedure, so follow your healthcare provider’s instructions; similarly, although uncommon, inform your provider of any known allergies, as allergic reactions can occur with filler injections.
The short answer is “most likely.”
Here are some things to consider if you’re thinking about dermal fillers.

It’s generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and if you’ve had recent skin issues, wait until your skin has fully healed.
The best way to know if dermal fillers suit you is to talk to a filler expert at Advanced Dermatology, P.C., during your initial consultation. We can understand your needs and give personalized advice on whether fillers are a good option for your cosmetic goals.
When it comes to facial rejuvenation, patients often ask us, “Are dermal fillers better than Botox?” The truth is that each option has its advantages and targets different face aesthetics.
For instance, Botox injections are primarily used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles caused by muscle movement, such as laugh lines and crow’s feet. On the other hand, dermal fillers add volume and fullness to areas that may have lost elasticity, such as the cheeks and under-eyes. Additionally, you can expect the effects of Botox to typically last 3-6 months, whereas fillers can last up to 2 years.
Some patients choose to utilize one treatment over the other, while others use both treatments simultaneously. Our cosmetic dermatologists will help you decide which treatments are best for your aesthetic goals.
