The use of face fillers and the safety of these treatments are often asked questions at our New Jersey clinic. You’ll discover the answers to the most frequently asked concerns regarding dermal fillers, as well as everything you need to know about our most popular face enhancing treatments, right here. But first, let’s start off with the basics…

What Are Dermal Fillers And How Do They Work?

Our dermal fillers are constructed of a synthetic hyaluronic acid (HA) that is biodegradable and identical to the natural hyaluronic acid (HA) that is created by our bodies.

Dermal fillers may also be manufactured from calcium hydroxylapatite, which is a mineral present in our bones and can be used to minimize the appearance of wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is not a synthetic ingredient that you should be concerned about — it is present naturally beneath our skin, therefore there are no adverse reactions that may occur as a result of using this product.

Although HA is a popular component in many skincare products, the outcomes of topical use may be inconsistent. Putting hyaluronic acid into your skin will offer you the same effects as any anti-wrinkle lotion would ever provide.

Dermal fillers are sometimes referred to as facial or face fillers, cosmetic injectables, or cosmetic injectables. Dermal fillers may be used to renew the skin as well as to improve the contour and fullness of particular regions of the face.

As an added benefit, they may help to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, as well as reverse the loss of volume in the skin and hydrate deeper skin layers. Many different kinds of fillers are utilized to achieve varied results, and different procedures are used based on the region of the face that has to be enhanced.

How To Pick The Right Dermal Filler

There are various different kinds of dermal fillers available on the market, each with a particular texture and the ability to add variable amounts of density to different parts of the face. It is important to choose a qualified doctor or aesthetician for your treatment such as our board-certified surgeon Dr. Gartner in order to ensure that the most appropriate filler is utilized to obtain the results you seek.

There are two types of fillers: thick fillers that give volume and plumpness to facial features and thin fillers that are ideal for smoothing fine lines. During your first appointment, you’ll discuss your goals and expectations with the injector so that they can determine which filler (or fillers) would work best for you. Dermal fillers such as Juvéderm and Restylane are the most widely utilized products on the market today and some of the most popular ones at our New Jersey clinic.

Which Filler Is Currently The Most Popular?

We provide a variety of treatments in New Jersey to improve the appearance of face features utilizing HA dermal fillers. Our patients are pleased with the outcomes and believe that the cost is justified by the many advantages they gain from injectables. The regions of the face listed below are most often treated with dermal fillers to give our customers a more youthful, but natural-looking appearance.

Cheeks

Dermal fillers are our first option for cheek augmentation because they may give you the broader or more prominent cheekbones that you want. Increasing the size of your cheeks may change the profile or curve of your face, making you seem more young and well-adjusted.

Tear Trough or Under-Eye

The injection of filler into the tear trough is a delicate and precise procedure that requires great attention and precision. The product is gently rubbed into the surrounding regions (typically sunken bags or under eyes) to assist make the under-eye area smoother, firmer, and less sunken after it has been injected. This treatment may also be used to help minimize the appearance of dark circles beneath the eyes.

Chin or Jawline

The treatment of chin or jawline remodeling is popular with both men and women for a variety of reasons, including aesthetic reasons. While women want a thinner, more extended jawline, males seek one that is squarer and more chiseled in appearance. We may also employ dermal fillers to help decrease the appearance of chin flaws such as dimples or uneven skin tone to promote a more flawless surface.

Lips

As you would expect, lip augmentation is one of our most popular procedures, with individuals of all ages opting for this treatment. Depending on whether one lip is larger or smaller than the other, we may make the lips larger or balance them out. When it comes to lip fillers, less is more when it comes to application. Avoid overdoing things. If you find that one treatment was not enough for you, we would be happy to schedule a follow-up appointment to enhance them more if needed.

How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?

There may be a wide range of results between people and depending on the kind of filler that is utilized. Dermal fillers containing HA typically last six months to a year, with some fillers lasting up to 18 months in certain cases. Due to the fact that the body naturally breaks down HA dermal fillers over time, most customers need to return to the clinic once a year for a touch-up on their injectables. The importance of understanding that dermal fillers are not a permanent answer, but are a wonderful supplement to any anti-aging routine cannot be overstated. The idea is to avoid using too much filler, so that you can appear natural rather than bloated like some celebrities who have overdone fillers on their faces.

Is It Painful?

Another top question we get about dermal fillers is, how painful is it. The pain threshold of each individual varies; but for our dermal filler treatments, we apply a numbing lotion to assist with alleviating the discomfort. In addition, a mild anesthetic known as lidocaine is included into the injection itself. Some patients experience some pain while the filler is injected and massaged into the desired position. In terms of time it takes, the treatment might take anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how much of your face you want to enhance.

If you have a low pain tolerance just let our team know and we can work with you to make it as pleasant as possible for you.

Is It Safe To Use Dermal Fillers?

As we previously mentioned, dermal fillers are completely safe to use. Dermal fillers are safe to use in all parts of the face and have been authorized by the FDA. You should have your procedure performed by a competent practitioner in order to assure your safety. If you decide you don’t like the appearance of a hyaluronic acid-based filler, the enzyme hyaluronidase may be used to dissolve it. This means that they may be removed if necessary, providing you with peace of mind.

Are There Any Side Effects To Dermal Fillers?

Yes, there are some minor effects. You may notice some bruising, swelling, or redness at the injection site, but this should resolve within a day or two after receiving the injection.

Additionally, there is a tiny risk of local infection. Although dermal fillers are rarely connected with complications, there are always risks involved with any cosmetic operation. Dr. Gartner will go through all of the pre- and post-treatment guidelines that must be followed in order to guarantee that you have a safe procedure and get the results that you want.

What Do Dermal Fillers Cost In New Jersey?

Pricing for your individualized treatment plan will vary based on the type(s) of filler used. We urge our patients to opt for a natural appearance, and it’s best to start with a little amount of filler and build up from there. For a top-up, you may always come back in two weeks – initially, we may just use half of a syringe, and if you decide you want to use the remainder, we can do so during your follow-up session.

Get Started On Your Treatment

When making the decision whether dermal fillers are worth it for you, you should always consider a few things before moving forward. Decide if this is the type of minimal result that you want.
