Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are injectable products used for specific aesthetic purposes, including restoring or adding volume, enhancing contour, and addressing certain lines or folds.
But filler isn’t simply about adding volume. The result depends on your anatomy, proportions, the area being treated, the product selected, placement, and what you want to achieve.
At Haus D’ Longevity, your provider begins by looking at the whole picture — your anatomy, previous treatments, and what you’d like to achieve — before determining whether filler may be appropriate for you.
What Would You Like to Address?
Different filler products are designed and approved for different uses. Depending on the product and your individual assessment, treatment may be considered for areas such as:
Cheeks
Volume and contour within the midface.
Lips
Volume, shape, or definition based on your anatomy and goals.
Facial Lines & Folds
Certain lines and folds that may be appropriate for treatment with filler.
Additional Treatment Areas
Other areas may be considered depending on the specific product, its approved uses, and your individual assessment.
Looking at the Whole Picture.
Your consultation begins with what you’d like to achieve, then considers the anatomy and proportions that are uniquely yours.
Your provider will assess your facial structure, areas of volume, previous filler or aesthetic treatments, relevant medical history, and your preferences.
Photos or examples can be useful for communicating what you like, but your treatment plan will be developed around your features and individual assessment.
Product. Placement. Proportion.
If filler is being considered, your provider will explain the specific product being recommended, why it was selected, where it would be placed, the amount proposed, and what may reasonably be expected.
You’ll also have an opportunity to discuss potential side effects and serious risks, alternatives, expected recovery, cost, and what to do if you have a concern after treatment.
While uncommon, filler can be unintentionally injected into a blood vessel, which can lead to serious complications. Your provider will explain this risk, how it is minimized, and how it is managed if it occurs.
The goal is a treatment plan you understand before you decide whether to proceed.
The Treatment Experience.
Before treatment begins, your provider will review the proposed areas, product, and plan with you.
The treatment experience, appointment length, and aftercare depend on the product and areas being treated. Temporary swelling, tenderness, bruising, or other effects may occur.
Before you leave, you’ll receive instructions about what to expect afterward, what may require prompt attention, and when your result should be assessed.
Results, Over Time.
Filler results and duration vary by product, treatment area, amount used, placement, and individual response.
Your provider can explain what to expect from the specific filler used, how your result may evolve as temporary treatment effects resolve, and how long the effect may typically last.
If follow-up is recommended, you’ll also understand when and why. There is no need to commit to an ongoing treatment schedule at your first appointment.
Frequently Asked
Questions
Is filler the same as Botox?
No. Dermal fillers and neuromodulators such as Botox are different types of injectable treatments. They work differently and are used for different aesthetic purposes. Your provider can help you understand which approach may be appropriate for what you’d like to address.
How do I know which filler is right for me?
You don’t need to select a product before your consultation. Product selection depends on factors including the area being treated, your anatomy, the intended use, and your aesthetic goals.
Will filler make me look unnatural?
Your result depends on factors including your anatomy, product selection, amount used, placement, technique, and the aesthetic goal being pursued. Your consultation is the time to discuss what you want your result to look like and what may realistically be achieved.
How long does filler last?
Duration varies by product, treatment area, amount used, and individual response. Your provider can discuss what may reasonably be expected from the specific treatment being considered.
Can I schedule filler right before an event?
Timing matters. Swelling, bruising, tenderness, and other temporary effects may occur. Let us know about important events or travel so your provider can help you plan appropriately.
What if I’ve had filler before?
Let your provider know what product was used, where it was placed, when you were treated, and whether you’ve had any complications, if you have that information. Your previous treatment history can help inform your assessment and future treatment plan.
Balance Is Personal.
You don’t need to arrive knowing which product, area, or amount of filler you want.
Begin with what you’d like to restore, enhance, or better understand. Your provider can help you shape a treatment plan around your features and what you want to achieve.
