Dermal Fillers
Customized treatment plans that will address your exact needs.
Aging skin has a way of creeping up on us, from the gradual loss of facial fullness to fine lines and folds. But getting older shouldn’t keep you from looking your best. Dermal fillers are a great way to keep signs of aging at bay with minimal fuss and downtime. At Balle Bliss in Cypress, TX, we offer different options for fillers. We will work with you to customize a treatment plan that will address your exact concerns. We offer the entire JUVÉDERM® and Restylane® collections of fillers, as well as biostimulators like Sculptra® and Radiesse®.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are substances that can enhance facial contours, reduce lines, and restore lost volume, leading to a more youthful appearance. They consist of gel-like components that, when injected beneath the skin, can rejuvenate facial features and improve facial symmetry.
How Do Injectable Fillers Work?
Injectable fillers work differently based on their composition. Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, for instance, fill the area with their gel-like volume and can help draw moisture to the treatment area. Biostimulating injectables like Sculptra and Radiesse can encourage the body’s collagen production processes, leading to long-lasting results that develop gradually. These products not only address wrinkles and loss of volume but also help enhance the skin’s overall structure and firmness.
What Are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?
Enhancing the cheeks can restore youthful volume and create a more balanced facial structure. Filler treatments specifically designed for this area can lift and define the cheekbones, offering a natural-looking and refreshed appearance.
Addressing hollows and shadows under the eyes can brighten the face and reduce the appearance of tiredness. Dermal fillers under the eyes are effective at rejuvenating this delicate area, leading to a more rested and vibrant look.
A well-defined jawline contributes to a balanced facial profile and enhances overall aesthetics. With dermal fillers, patients can achieve a sharper, more pronounced jawline, providing a stronger and more attractive facial contour.
Fuller, more defined lips can enhance the harmony of facial features and contribute to a youthful appearance. Filler treatments can augment lip volume and shape, providing natural-looking results that complement the individual’s facial structure.
Smoothing out facial wrinkles and lines promotes a more youthful and smooth appearance. Dermal fillers are particularly effective at addressing these signs of aging, resulting in a rejuvenated and more vibrant skin appearance.
Why Choose Dermal Fillers?
They Can Offer Immediate Results
Many injectable fillers provide instant enhancement, so you don’t have to wait a long time to see changes. If you are looking for a quick change for an upcoming event, dermal filler injections could be the right option.
They Look and Feel Natural
Advancements in cosmetic fillers have enabled a more natural look and feel with formulations that closely mimic the body’s own natural substances. Patients can maintain their normal facial expressions and movements and enjoy a rejuvenated appearance without the tell-tale signs of cosmetic interventions.
They Can Improve Your Skin’s Texture
Facial fillers not only fill in wrinkles and add volume but also improve the texture of the skin. Many fillers can help revitalize the skin, give it improved elasticity, and make the surface smoother and more youthful.
They Are Long-Lasting
Dermal fillers offer long-lasting results, allowing patients to enjoy their enhanced appearance for several months or even a couple of years, depending on the type of product used. This durability provides a lasting impact while still allowing for adjustments over time as needed.
They Are Not Permanent
The non-permanent nature of dermal fillers is an attractive feature for many who prefer not to commit to permanent alterations. This allows individuals to experiment with volume and contours while having the comfort of knowing that the effects will naturally diminish if they choose not to maintain them.
What Types of Dermal Fillers Do We Offer?
The JUVÉDERM Collection
The JUVÉDERM collection of fillers uses hyaluronic acid, a compound that occurs naturally in the body and promotes hydration and fullness. Hyaluronic acid declines naturally with age, and this filler replenishes it. The JUVÉDERM collection includes several different fillers. We will assess your face during your consultation and work with you to customize the perfect treatment plan to address your areas of concern.
This formula is specially formulated to improve the definition along the jawline and chin area.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA, which is designed for deep injection in the cheeks, is used to target volume loss in the cheeks as well as the chin.
These three fillers in the JUVÉDERM collection are great options for patients looking to soften facial lines and folds, including the nasolabial folds that run between the outer edges of the nose to the corners of the mouth. JUVÉDERM Ultra XC can also be used to augment the lips.
JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA is a lip filler that can also be used to fill in hollows beneath the eyes.
The Restylane Collection
We also offer the Restylane collection of dermal fillers. The Restylane collection uses hyaluronic acid in its filler formula. This helps fight signs of facial aging, including lines and folds. We will assess your face during your consultation and work with you to customize the perfect treatment plan to address your areas of concern.
Restylane Defyne, which is one of several fillers that are part of the Restylane collection, is great at tackling deep lines like the ones that form on the outer sides of the mouth.
This lip filler restores the shape and softness of the lips, while also leaving them flexible and natural in appearance. This filler can also improve lip color.
Restylane Silk is another option for patients interested in augmenting their lips and smoothing the fine lines that develop around the mouth.
Because the face isn’t the only part of the body where signs of aging develop, Restylane Lyft can be used to address both the face and hands. Patients who want both areas treated can do that in the same appointment.
Sculptra
Sculptra is a biostimulator rather than a traditional dermal filler. It is composed of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which stimulates the body’s natural collagen production when injected. This process helps to rebuild lost collagen over time, improving the structure and thickness of the skin. Sculptra is primarily used to treat deep lines, creases, and volume loss on the lower half of the face by revitalizing the skin’s underlying framework and restoring facial volume gradually.
Radiesse
Radiesse serves dual purposes as both a facial filler and a biostimulator. This product is made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres that are suspended in a gel-like substance. Upon injection, Radiesse immediately adds volume and lift while also working to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, enhancing skin quality over time. It is particularly effective for smoothing moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds, and for enhancing contours in areas like the jawline. It can also be used to refresh and rejuvenate the hands.
FAQs About Dermal Fillers
Who Is a Good Candidate for Filler?
A good candidate for filler treatments is someone who is not interested in invasive procedures but who wants to enhance their facial features or diminish the signs of aging. It is important that you have healthy skin with no current infections and that you have had a consultation to understand the types of results you can get from dermal fillers.
What Are Dermal Filler Treatments Like?
Dermal filler treatments are fast, non-invasive injections performed in a medical office. They usually involve little to no downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately after. The treatment involves injecting the filler material under the skin using a fine needle or cannula, with the entire process lasting anywhere from 15 to 60 minutes. Sometimes topical anesthetic is used to keep the injections from pinching as much, and most products include a small amount of lidocaine for comfort.
How Long Do Cosmetic Fillers Last?
The longevity of cosmetic fillers varies depending on the type used and the area treated. JUVÉDERM fillers can last one to two years, while Restylane products typically last 6 to 18 months. Sculptra can last up to two years, offering gradual but long-lasting results. Radiesse effects can last a year or more, providing both immediate and enduring enhancement. These durations can differ based on individual factors such as metabolism, the area treated, and lifestyle.
What Is Aftercare Like With Dermal Fillers?
After receiving dermal fillers, patients can generally expect minimal downtime and are often able to return to their normal activities shortly after treatment. However, to optimize healing and results, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous activities, excessive heat, and sunlight for the first 24 to 48 hours. Patients are also usually advised to avoid rubbing or pressing on the treated area to prevent shifting of the filler. Following all of our post-treatment guidelines can help give you a smooth recovery and long-lasting results.
