What are Dermal Fillers?

The most popular dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid, which is a natural sugar molecule that already exists within our body. Sometimes we need a boost of hydration from within the skin, since we lose our natural hyaluronic acid as we mature.

Fortunately we offer advanced dermal fillers to hydrate the skin from within which improves your complexion, replaces lost volume and common signs of aging, and fills in fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid face fillers are semi-permanent and dissolvable, which is a great treatment option if you are looking to enhance your natural features. In order to treat volume loss that occurs inevitably in our face, the best dermal fillers are a great solution to replace volume loss and visible signs of aging.

Get a Dream Pout With Lip Fillers

Lip fillers at Youthful You Aesthetics are a safe and natural way to add volume and hydration to the lips. Our hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are dissolvable and reversible, giving you the option to add or remove them as needed. With our lip injections, you can expect some swelling and bruising for a few days after your treatment - we recommend icing frequently to reduce this - but it takes up two weeks for the filler to settle in.

Overall, lip fillers last around 6-9 months with some of the product metabolizing naturally over time. After your treatment, you can eat but avoid hot/spicy food, and should lay low for a few days to reduce any downtime. With us, you can trust that we will always work with a conservative approach to give you the most natural enhancements possible.

FAQs About Dermal Fillers

At Youthful You Aesthetics, we understand that choosing who to entrust with your appearance is not a decision to be taken lightly. That's why we've created this section where you'll find answers to some of the most common questions we receive about dermal fillers.

Who is a good candidate?

Generally, dermal fillers are best suited for people who have mild to moderate wrinkles. If you have deep wrinkles or significant volume loss, dermal fillers may not be the best option for you. Dermal fillers are also not ideal for people who have very sensitive skin or who are prone to keloid scars.

If you have any additional questions, or would like to schedule a consultation, please don't hesitate to contact us. During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin condition and discuss your goals for treatment. Together, we will decide whether dermal fillers are the best option for you.
How long do dermal fillers last?

Dermal fillers are considered semi permanent, which means that the majority of the filler will be metabolized out over several months. The speed at which dermal fillers are dissolved depends on factors such as metabolism, type of filler injected, and area of injection. On average, hyaluronic acid dermal filler lasts between 6 to 12 months. Some face fillers made of non-hyaluronic acid last a few years if their purpose is to stimulate collagen, as it takes many years for your body to break down the collagen that was created.

Individual results may vary, and it is common with skin care procedures to expect variable longevity. Anecdotally, we find that after multiple treatments with dermal fillers in the same area, subsequent treatments tend to make dermal fillers last longer, therefore improving its longevity.

Filler injections are a wonderful way to enhance the skin and restore lost volume – the key is to remain conservative. Our approach is to start low, go slow. We’re always open to discussing your goals, and offer free consultations to explore potential options so you can look and feel your absolute best.
Are dermal fillers permanent?

Dermal fillers are considered semi-permanent, lasting between 6 to 12 months on average and depending on many variables such as metabolism, volume injected, type of filler, area of injection, etc. The beauty of hyaluronic acid facial fillers is that it already exists as a natural sugar molecule in your skin – we’re simply adding additional hyaluronic acid to plump, hydrate, and restore lost volume under the skin.

We notice that with ongoing maintenance, the best dermal fillers such as Revanesse and Restylane, build on previous face filler and can last longer which is more sustainable. Another reason why hyaluronic acid is the best dermal filler is for its easy integration into your natural tissue and dissolvability of the product. There are many versatile uses of injectable filler depending on your skin goals. Our goal is to use cosmetic fillers to enhance your natural beauty. We aim for a rejuvenation, not a transformation. Dermal fillers are best paired with other treatments that improve skin laxity, stimulate collagen, and improve skin integrity to make your dermal filler injections look their best.
Are dermal fillers safe?

Dermal fillers are generally safe, but similar to any procedure, cosmetic dermal fillers do not come without risk. Swelling and bruising are common side effects to expect. We prefer hyaluronic acid dermal fillers as they are dissolvable with a painless injection of an enzyme to remove the hyaluronic acid when needed. As with any cosmetic procedure like dermal fillers, it is important to visit an experienced and knowledgeable professional who can provide you with a comprehensive assessment and treatment plan while walking you through potential risks with any cosmetic treatment.

Be sure that your injector is a qualified and licensed health professional, with RN, NP and/or MD licensure. At Youthful You Aesthetics, we ensure safety protocols are in place for your safety and comfort.
Are dermal fillers painful?

Dermal fillers are not painful and we offer numbing procedures to reduce any discomfort you may have. Discomfort during the treatment depends on areas being treated, the technique being used, and pain tolerance. For your filler injections, you can expect brief and mild discomfort as you would with any injection into the skin.

The best dermal fillers include lidocaine which allows for better patient comfort and reduces the pain during the procedure. Occasionally after your treatment, you may experience tenderness and general soreness to the areas of injection. You should not have any severe pain, significant discolouration, or changes to your skin or skin color (besides regular bruising which can be expected).

For your comfort after your treatment, we recommend avoiding any social events for 2-3 days after your treatment to give you ample time to ice the treatment areas after your dermal filler injections.
Are there any side effects associated with dermal filler injections?

The majority of patients who receive dermal filler injections do not experience any side effects. However, as with any medical treatment, there is always a risk of side effects occurring. Common side effects associated with dermal filler injections include bruising, swelling, and redness at the injection site. These side effects typically resolve within a few days.
