Rejuvenate your look with smoother skin, a fuller face, and plumper lips. Dermal fillers restore the volume and structure lost with age, helping to reduce unsightly wrinkles, folds, hollows, and facial lines you’d prefer to live without.
DERMAL FILLERS
HOW WE DO IT
Dermal fillers restore the volume we lose in our faces as we age. They are also used for lip augmentation, enhancing thin lips for a balanced or sensuous appearance. Additionally, they can correct deeper wrinkles that do not respond to botulinum treatment.
HOW IT WORKS
Injected with a small needle, dermal fillers are formulated with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring compound in the skin and connective tissue. Hyaluronic acid binds water molecules, helping to keep your skin hydrated and full. Additionally, research suggests that injections of hyaluronic acid may stimulate collagen production.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Treatment takes approximately 15 to 30 minutes, with immediate results. You may experience mild discomfort and temporary swelling, tenderness, or bruising, which can be alleviated with a topical numbing cream. Dr. Al Sharief often recommends combining dermal fillers with botulinum injections for optimal results.
