Fillers
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that add volume to your skin, reversing signs of aging.
They address volume loss due to natural aging and offer aesthetic enhancements, such as reducing wrinkles, minimizing scars, enhancing lips, defining facial contours, building cheekbones, and restoring your mid-face volume.
Nigro Dermatology physicians provide customizable filler treatment plans using premium brands like Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Belotero®, Radiesse®, and Sculptra®.
Dermal fillers complement other anti-aging treatments like Botox®, IPL therapy, or SkinPen® with PRP® for a natural-looking, youthful appearance without resorting to surgical facelifts. Your physician can consult with you to determine which products is best for you.
How do dermal fillers work?
Most dermal fillers involve injecting a gel containing hyaluronic acid (HA) directly into areas with volume loss or where additional volume is desired, such as cheekbones and lips. The treatment is minimally invasive, and many fillers include lidocaine for comfort. Your provider may use a topical ointment to numb the area if needed. Depending on your goals, multiple fillers may be recommended to address various aspects of facial volume, wrinkle plumping, and feature contouring.
What happens after I get dermal fillers?
Following your dermal filler treatment, you’ll immediately notice increased facial smoothness and volume. The water loving quality of HA helps retain moisture for a youthful glow. Some soreness, slight bruising or swelling may occur, but it can be managed with ice packs and over-the-counter pain medication.
How long do dermal fillers last?
The longevity of your fillers depends on the type and formulation, lasting an average of 6-18 months. The team at Nigro Dermatology Group schedules touch-ups to ensure continuous maintenance without interruption.
