Cosmetic Fillers

Serving Burbank and the Southern California Area for 15+ Years

Some people are lucky enough to have naturally young-looking skin. Others are genetically predisposed to more lines and wrinkles or thinner skin. If you want a natural way to fill in those lines and wrinkles, consider using dermal fillers. Dermal fillers are injectable substances that cosmetic dermatologists use to help fill wrinkles, plump lips, and help restore a younger appearance.

What Areas Can We Treat?

Most lines, wrinkles, deep creases, and dermal imperfections around the face can be treated with fillers. In addition, they can be used to fill out thin or wrinkled lips, plump up cheeks, and contour the jaw lines and other areas around the face. After treatment, patients will experience fuller, more youthful skin that looks and feels healthy and natural.

Here are the fillers we use:

Results - Patients will experience plumper, fuller skin that is healthy, natural, and younger-looking.

Treatment Interval - Depending on the type of treatment, fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 1 year. After this, there is a gradual diminishment of the filler, and you might want to get the procedure done again.

Treatment Time - The treatment is very quick, as it is a nonsurgical, outpatient procedure. Depending on where the injection is placed, you will typically get a topical numbing agent applied on the area. Occasionally, a lidocaine injection is used. The injections themselves, however, can take anywhere from 5 minutes to 30 minutes per area.

Recovery Time - Immediately after the treatment, there may be temporary swelling or redness, for the first day. As with any injectable filler, there is a chance of bruising, particularly in individuals taking aspirin or other medications that may thin the blood. This typically resolves in less than one week. Your nurse or physician injector can educate you on ways to avoid or decrease the likelihood of this happening.
