Dermal Fillers
Smooth Wrinkles, Volumize Your Face, or Choose Lip Injections

Arrive at the office with a fresh, clean face. No makeup, please.
A topical anesthetic will be applied to the areas to be injected. There is also an anesthetic in each syringe of filler. You may experience some redness, swelling, and bruising after your treatment; because of this, arrange major social events at least two weeks after your treatment date. Patients normally report bruising lasting up to two weeks after their injections. Many patients schedule a complimentary V-Beam laser treatment after the procedure, which will help the bruising to resolve more quickly. Avoid self-tanners in the days before your Juvéderm® or other dermal filler treatments in case lasers are needed.
