Dermal fillers at the Vascular Birthmark Institute are used to smooth wrinkles, restore facial volume, and enhance natural contours. Led by Dr. Waner and Dr. O, our expert team offers precise, tailored treatments to address age-related volume loss, facial asymmetry, and scarring with natural-looking, long-lasting results.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectables formulated to restore volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance facial contours. Made from biocompatible substances like hyaluronic acid, they are commonly used to treat areas such as the cheeks, lips, under-eyes, and jawline. At the Vascular Birthmark Institute, dermal fillers are also used to improve the appearance of facial scars or asymmetry caused by vascular anomalies or previous surgeries. Each treatment is carefully customized by Dr. Waner and Dr. O to achieve natural, balanced results while maintaining the integrity and harmony of your facial features.
Dermal Fillers Treat:
- Facial volume loss in the cheeks and temples
- Deep nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Fine lines around the mouth and lips
- Under-eye hollows and dark circles
- Lip thinning and asymmetry
- Mild jowling and jawline definition
- Depressed or uneven scars
- Facial asymmetry caused by vascular anomalies or surgery
How Dermal Fillers Work
Dermal fillers work by injecting biocompatible substances—most commonly hyaluronic acid—beneath the skin to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance contours. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar molecule in the body that retains moisture and adds structure.
Once injected, the filler binds with water in the skin, creating a plumping effect that lifts and supports the tissue. Over time, the filler integrates with surrounding tissue, enhancing skin texture and elasticity. The effects are immediate and can last several months.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers:
- Restore natural facial volume and contours
- Smooth fine lines and deep wrinkles
- Enhance features like lips, cheeks, and jawline
- Improve the appearance of scars and asymmetry
- Immediate, visible results
- Little to no downtime
- Support a youthful, refreshed appearance
Your Dermal Filler Treatment
Dr. Waner or Dr. O will begin by discussing your aesthetic goals and evaluating your facial structure. A topical anesthetic may be applied for comfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, the filler is then precisely injected into targeted areas to restore volume or correct asymmetry. The process typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, and you’ll be able to sit upright and review the results with your doctor before leaving.
Recovery After Dermal Fillers
You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically subsides within a few days. You can return to most daily activities right away, but it’s best to avoid intense exercise, alcohol, and excessive sun or heat for 24 to 48 hours. To reduce swelling, apply a cold compress gently. Dr. Waner or Dr. O will provide personalized aftercare instructions to support a smooth recovery.
Dermal Filler Results
You’ll notice the results of your dermal fillers immediately, with the full effects visible within a few days as swelling subsides. Depending on the type of filler used and the area treated, results can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months. To maintain your desired look, you can schedule touch-ups as needed. Dr. Waner or Dr. O will guide you on a personalized schedule to ensure your results remain natural.
