What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels, primarily made from hyaluronic acid (HA), that restore facial volume and smooth wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is naturally occurring in your skin, attracting moisture and providing structural support.

As we age, natural HA production decreases. Volume loss follows.

FDA-approved dermal fillers replenish this loss using biocompatible gel formulations that integrate with surrounding tissue.

When strategically placed, these fillers restore youthful contours. Results are visible immediately, with most swelling resolving within 3-7 days and final appearance visible at two weeks.

People seek fillers for midface volume loss (flattened cheeks), lip thinning, jawline definition loss, under-eye hollows, and nasolabial folds. The treatment addresses age-related volume depletion and enhances features for those seeking subtle refinement.

Dermal Filler Options at Seven Medical Aesthetics

Lip Fillers

Subtle lip augmentation using hyaluronic acid fillers designed for delicate lip tissue. Best for lip thinning, asymmetry correction, or natural volume enhancement. Our conservative approach preserves movement while adding fullness. Products include Juvéderm Volbella for soft hydration and Restylane Kysse for subtle structure.

Cheek Fillers (Midface Volumization)

Strategic placement to restore youthful cheek contours. When cheeks flatten with age, the face appears to sag.

Restoring midface volume creates a lifting effect. No surgery required.

We use Juvéderm Voluma or Restylane Lyft for deeper structural support, providing natural elevation rather than overdone fullness.

Jawline Contouring

Filler placement for definition along the mandible. Appeals to both men seeking masculine enhancement and women desiring subtle definition. For professional men, we use conservative dosing to create strength without appearing “done.” Products include Juvéderm Volux and Restylane Lyft.

Tear Trough (Under-Eye) Filler

Delicate under-eye treatment for hollows and dark circles. This advanced technique requires precise placement in thin-skinned areas. We approach conservatively. Overfilling creates puffiness. Small amounts using Restylane or Belotero create significant improvement.

Nasolabial Fold Softening

Smoothing smile lines from nose to mouth corners. Rather than erasing these expression lines (which looks unnatural), we soften them while maintaining facial character. Restylane Defyne or Juvéderm Ultra Plus provide support without rigidity.

Sculptra (Collagen Biostimulator)

Stimulates your body’s own collagen production rather than providing immediate volume. Sculptra works gradually over months, ideal for subtle improvement in global volume loss. Results appear natural and last two to three years.

The Dermal Filler Process at Seven Medical Aesthetics

Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation with Restylane

Free Consultation: We evaluate facial structure, discuss realistic goals, and assess candidacy. Our conservative philosophy means starting with less, allowing us to add more at two-week follow-up if desired. This prevents overfilling and gives you control.

Preparation: Minimal prep required. We apply topical numbing cream. Most fillers contain lidocaine for comfort. We take before photos for comparison.

Treatment: Strategic injection takes 15 to 45 minutes depending on areas treated. Discomfort is minimal thanks to numbing agents. Our conservative approach means starting with less volume, then adding if needed.

Aftercare: Mild swelling and possible bruising are normal, resolving within days. Most return to activities immediately, avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours.

Follow-Up: Two-week check-in allows us to assess results and add volume if desired. This staged approach prevents overdone appearance while ensuring balanced results.

Dermal Filler Results and How Long They Last

Ear Lobe Filler

Hyaluronic acid fillers provide immediate results, though swelling may temporarily obscure final appearance. Most swelling resolves within three to seven days. Final results visible at two weeks.

Longevity varies by product and area. Lip fillers last six to 12 months (high-movement area). Cheek and midface fillers last 12 to 18 months. Jawline fillers similarly last 12 to 18 months. Sculptra provides results lasting two to three years.

Individual factors affect duration: metabolism, treatment area movement, product type, and dosage. Strategic maintenance helps preserve results. Many find they need less filler at subsequent appointments as volume retention accumulates.

Dermal Filler Investment

Fillers are priced per syringe, with cost varying by product and area. Amount needed depends on goals, area treated, and degree of volume loss.

Our conservative approach may use less product initially compared to practices aiming for dramatic transformation. (We can always add more. We can’t easily take it away.) Starting conservatively prevents overfilling and respects your preferences.

Factors affecting cost include treatment area size, specific product chosen, amount needed, and combination treatments. Financing through Cherry and CareCredit makes treatment accessible. Contact us for personalized pricing during your free consultation.

Am I a Good Candidate for Dermal Fillers?

Most adults experiencing volume loss or seeking enhancement are good candidates. Ideal candidates include those noticing midface depletion, lip thinning, jawline softening, under-eye hollows, and realistic expectations for natural enhancement.

Good signs you’re a fit: desiring refreshed appearance without looking “done,” interest in conservative placement, valuing RN expertise and medical oversight, and seeking long-term planning rather than quick fixes.

Considerations requiring consultation discussion include active skin infections, certain autoimmune conditions, pregnancy or breastfeeding, history of severe allergic reactions, and blood-thinning medications.

Our free consultation removes commitment risk. Explore options. Understand our approach. Our conservative philosophy means we’ll honestly tell you if less is more.

FAQs

How much does filler cost?

Fillers are priced per syringe, with costs varying by product and area. Please check out our pricing page for reference.

Most treatments require one to three syringes depending on goals. The product chosen (Juvéderm, Restylane, Sculptra), area treated, and amount needed influence cost. We provide transparent pricing during your free consultation. Financing through Cherry and CareCredit makes treatment accessible.

How long does filler last?

Longevity varies by product and area. Lip fillers last six to 12 months. Cheek and midface fillers last 12 to 18 months. Jawline fillers similarly last 12 to 18 months. Sculptra lasts two to three years. Individual metabolism, treatment area movement, and product type affect duration. Strategic maintenance preserves results.

Are fillers safe?

FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers are safe when administered by qualified medical professionals. Our RN founders use medical-grade products, proper protocols, and conservative dosing. Side effects are mild (temporary swelling, bruising). An important safety advantage: HA fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed. Medical director oversight ensures physician consultation is available.

What’s the difference between Botox and filler?

Botox relaxes muscles to smooth expression lines (forehead, crow’s feet, frown lines), treating dynamic wrinkles from muscle movement. Dermal fillers restore volume and enhance contours (lips, cheeks, jawline), addressing volume loss and static wrinkles. Many benefit from both treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Learn more about our Botox treatments.

Does filler look natural?

Natural results depend on conservative dosing, skilled placement, and understanding facial proportions. Our RN-founded practice prioritizes natural enhancement. We start conservatively. Preserve facial movement. Place filler strategically for balance. Allow you to assess before adding more. Our “refreshed, not frozen” philosophy ensures you look like yourself, more rested and vibrant.
