WHAT ARE INJECTABLE DERMAL FILLERS?

Injectable dermal fillers (or dermal fillers) are often used to replenish lost facial volume. The face can lack volume for several reasons, but age and weight loss are commonly to blame. The procedure works by injecting the dermal filler beneath the skin to fill sunken or hollowed areas.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT WITH INJECTABLE DERMAL FILLERS?

Before your treatment, Briana will meet with you to learn more about your desired results and determine which product will best produce them. To begin the actual procedure, she will apply numbing cream as a local anesthetic to ease the discomfort of the injection. Briana will decide how much is appropriate and will continuously and gently inject it via a small needle. Depending on the desired outcome, either one or multiple syringes could be used.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER RECEIVING INJECTABLE DERMAL FILLERS

Injectable dermal fillers can be administered in our Weymouth, MA office quickly and with very few risks. Due to the numbing agents, the process is typically pretty tolerable and requires little to no downtime afterward. You can expect bruising and swelling immediately after, but these symptoms will fade within a few short days. Results typically last from a few months to a full year based on the type of filler used and the placement of injection. To maintain optimal results, Briana may recommend touch-ups.
