Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are a minimally invasive, non-surgical cosmetic procedure used to enhance facial features by adding volume and plumpness for an overall fresher and rejuvenated look.

Dermal fillers consist of a concentrated gel-like substance called hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid (HA or hyaluronan) is naturally produced in the skin and helps hydrate, heal, and promote collagen formation.

Results with dermal fillers are immediate and typically last between 6–24 months, depending on the product and treatment area. Downtime is minimal.
