At Clear Skin Dermatology of Newmarket and Toronto, Ontario, we are here to answer all your burning questions about dermal filler injectables. These treatments are great for turning back the hands of time. We know that our patients want to know everything about them before taking the plunge.
Let’s take a look at some of the more frequently asked questions about these cosmetic treatments with our providers:
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are manually injected just beneath the skin to enhance facial features, restore lost volume, and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. This can result in more youthful-looking skin, combating the loss of collagen and elastin that naturally occurs as part of the aging process.
Absolutely! When administered by trained professionals like our experienced team at Clear Skin Dermatology, these injections are safe and effective at addressing fine lines and wrinkles caused by skin laxity and volume loss. We use FDA-approved, high-quality fillers and follow all safety protocols to ensure the best final results for you.
Results typically last anywhere from 12 – 18 months. depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. Many of our patients love coming back for touch-ups to keep their look fresh and slow the aging process overall.
Not at all! At Clear Skin Dermatology, we specialize in achieving natural-looking results that enhance your beauty. You’ll still look like you, just more refreshed and younger.
Most patients describe the sensation of this treatment as a slight pinch or pressure. We also use numbing cream or fillers with built-in anesthetics to ensure you are as comfortable as possible during your time at our office.
Mild swelling, redness, or slight bruising at the injection site are common, but these typically subside within a few days. Our team provides aftercare tips to minimize discomfort and ensure proper healing.
While dermal fillers cannot stop the clock, they can certainly slow it down! By replenishing lost volume and softening wrinkles, fillers help you to maintain a youthful appearance for longer.
