What are Dermal Fillers?

 

Dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm® and Restylane®, are injected under the skin as a non-surgical cosmetic procedure to plump up lips, restore facial volume and smooth out lines and wrinkles in the face. They are a key component of the “non-surgical facelift”. Juvéderm and Restylane are brands of hyaluronic acid fillers which offer immediate results and typically last for 6 to 24 months. Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in the skin that’s involved in tissue regeneration and repair. At Valespring Cosmetic Surgery Institute, we offer Juvéderm in Richmond Hill to help you achieve your aesthetic goals with a wide variety of available injections including lip fillers, chin fillers, cheek fillers and more.

Areas for Filler Injections - Face & Body

Cheek Filler

Cheek fillers are injected into the cheekbone area to either add definition to bone structure, restore lost volume or smooth out wrinkles. Fillers in the cheek area help to provide a natural, youthful contour and can often improve the appearance of the whole face. If you have never had fillers before, this is often a good location to start receiving injections.

Lip Fillers

Lip fillers can be used to create fuller looking lips, restore lip volume, smooth out wrinkles, and correct asymmetry. The lips can also have fillers injected to provide a more defined “cupid’s bow” shape or even a more pouty appearance.

Jawline Filler

Jawline fillers can be used to increase definition between the neck and jawline as well as give the jawline a sharper angle. Jawline fillers can also be used to smooth out creases and lines in the jaw and reduce sagging skin by adding volume.

Chin Filler

Chin fillers can balance the facial contour and produce a more aesthetic profile by providing a stronger or more defined chin and jawline. They can also be used to reduce a chin cleft.

Non-surgical Rhinoplasty Nose Filler

A non-surgical rhinoplasty or “liquid rhinoplasty” involves using fillers to reshape the nose to hide minor bumps, lift the tip of the nose, or correct asymmetries in the nose.

Marionette Lines

The marionette lines are the creases which extend from the corners of the mouth down toward the chin. Targeted dermal filler injections around this area can help smooth out mild to moderate marionette lines.

Nasolabial Fold Filler

Nasolabial folds are the lines which run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth, which deepen as we age. Dermal fillers can be applied to these folds to quickly soften the visibility of the lines. Nasolabial fold fillers are often paired with cheek fillers as nasolabial folds can also be a symptom of volume loss in the cheeks.

Ear Lobes

Over time, earlobes may lose volume or develop wrinkles due to aging or heavy earring use. Fillers can be used to rejuvenate and plump up the earlobes, reducing the appearance of sagging or wrinkles.

Temple Region

Dermal fillers can be used to add volume and restore youthful contours to the temples, which may hollow out or become sunken due to aging or weight loss.

Tear Trough

Fillers can be used to smooth out under-eye hollows, improve dark circles, remove wrinkles and restore a more youthful appearance to the under-eye area. This can help patients appear less tired and more refreshed.

Neck and Décolletage

Fillers can be used to address signs of aging, such as sagging skin and wrinkles, on the neck and décolletage area (upper chest). They can provide a smoother and more youthful appearance to these areas.

Hands

Dermal fillers can be used to restore volume and improve the appearance of aging hands. They can help minimize the visibility of tendons, veins and wrinkles, giving a more youthful look to the hands.

Non-surgical Butt Lift / Buttocks

(Coming Soon) Dermal fillers can be used to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks, creating a fuller and more lifted appearance.

G-Shot

The G-shot is a procedure intended to enhance sexual pleasure in women by injecting a small amount of dermal filler into the front wall of the vagina near the G-spot. The goal is to increase sensitivity and potentially improve orgasms.

Pre-Injection Guidelines for Dermal Fillers

Before undergoing dermal filler treatments, it’s important to follow certain guidelines to ensure the best possible results and minimize potential complications. Here are some pre-injection recommendations for dermal fillers in Richmond Hill, at Valespring:

  • Consultation: Schedule a consultation with one of our expert injectors to discuss your aesthetic goals, medical history, and any concerns. This helps to determine the most appropriate type of filler and treatment plan for you.

  • Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from taking blood-thinning medications and supplements, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, and fish oil, for at least one week prior to your treatment. These can increase the risk of bruising and bleeding at the injection site.

  • Limit Alcohol and Caffeine: Avoid consuming alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours before your appointment, as these can contribute to swelling and bruising.

  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment. Hydrated skin responds better to dermal fillers.

  • Healthy Skin Care: Maintain a regular skincare routine and avoid any aggressive treatments, such as chemical peels or laser treatments, for at least one week before your dermal filler appointment.

  • Inform Your Doctor: Notify your injector of any medical conditions, allergies, or previous cosmetic procedures you have undergone. This information is crucial for ensuring a safe and effective treatment.

Post-Injection Care for Dermal Fillers

After receiving dermal fillers, following these post-care guidelines can help optimize your results and minimize any side effects:

  • Avoid Touching the Area: Refrain from touching, massaging, or applying pressure to the treated areas for at least 24 hours. This helps to ensure that the filler settles properly.

  • Use Cold Compresses: Apply cold compresses to the treated areas to reduce swelling and minimize bruising. Do this in 15-minute intervals during the first 24 hours after the treatment.

  • Stay Upright: Keep your head elevated and avoid lying flat for at least 4 hours after the procedure. This helps to prevent the filler from shifting.

  • Avoid Strenuous Activities: Refrain from engaging in strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for at least 48 hours after your treatment. Physical activity can increase blood flow to the face and exacerbate swelling.

  • Limit Sun Exposure: Avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, and saunas for at least one week after your treatment. UV rays and heat can increase swelling and prolong the healing process.

  • Hydrate and Moisturize: Drink plenty of water and keep your skin moisturized to support the healing process and maintain the results of your dermal fillers.

  • Follow-Up Appointments: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments with your injector to assess the results and discuss any concerns or additional treatments if necessary.

Filler Injection FAQs

 
  • At Valespring Cosmetic Surgery Institute, we use several different filler products which target different areas of the face and last different amounts of time. Typically, dermal fillers in Richmond Hill at Valespring can last from 6-24 months, depending on which product is used.

    Lip fillers in Richmond Hill generally last between 6 to 12 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle.

  • Typically for the initial consultation and first dermal filler injection in Richmond Hill, it takes between 20-30 minutes. Subsequent injections can be performed usually in about 15 minutes or less.

  • The dermal fillers we use at Valespring are hyaluronic acid fillers. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring, soft, gel-like substance in the body which binds to water to revitalize and add volume to the skin. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be strategically injected into the skin to add volume to smooth out wrinkles and reshape and refine facial features.

  • Most people experience only minor discomfort since a very tiny needle is used to inject the dermal fillers. No anesthesia or pain killers are needed. Some of the filler products we use include lidocaine which acts as a local anesthetic for patient comfort during and after the procedure.

  • There will be an immediate visible result after the filler injection and it usually takes up to 2 weeks for most of the filler to settle.

  • The specific instructions you should follow after getting injections of dermal fillers in Richmond Hill will be discussed at the time of your procedure. However, general guidelines include:

    • Refrain from applying makeup or creams for a few hours after the treatment

    • Cold compresses can be used to reduce swelling and soreness

    • Avoid exposure to the sun / UV lamps for the first 24 hours

    • Avoid strenuous exercise for the first 48 hours after the injection

    • Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for 6 hours after treatment

    • Avoid dental procedures (including cleaning) for 4 weeks after the injection

  • Lip fillers are temporary and typically last between 12 to 18 months.

  • Fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase. It works by breaking the bonds holding the hyaluronic acid molecules together, which allows the body to reabsorb the compounds and may reverse the effects of the filler.

  • Most patients are candidates for dermal fillers in Richmond Hill, at Valespring. Fillers are injected routinely to adults of any age.

    Medical contraindications to filler injection are rare, and include things like allergic reactions to the filler components or active infection around the proposed injection sites.

  • Our lip fillers in Richmond Hill are injectable treatments that enhance the volume, shape, and symmetry of the lips. These fillers typically contain hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that retains moisture and adds fullness. When injected, lip fillers add volume and definition, creating a plumper and more youthful appearance.

  • We offer Juvederm in Richmond Hill, which is a popular brand of dermal fillers used to address various signs of aging. It contains hyaluronic acid and is used to smooth wrinkles, add volume to the cheeks, lips, and other facial areas, and enhance facial contours.

Lip fillers are highly sought after for adding volume, enhancing shape, and creating a more defined lip contour.

Both types of fillers offer immediate results with minimal downtime, making them popular choices for individuals looking to enhance their facial aesthetics.
