Dermal Fillers Q&A

What should I know about dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are a type of cosmetic injection that instantly revitalizes your look by adding volume under your skin without surgery and with little to no downtime. 

As you get older, production of collagen slows down. Collagen is a structural protein found in your skin that provides strength and elasticity. Collagen loss makes your skin thin and fragile. The subcutaneous layer of fat under the skin also diminishes with age, causing the skin to loosen and sag.

Dermal fillers serve as a replacement for volume loss, restoring a more youthful appearance.

Can dermal fillers get rid of my lip lines?

Dermal fillers are used to fill in vertical lip lines, also called smoker’s lines, that develop above the upper lip. The aesthetic specialists at Mountcastle Medical & Med Spa can talk to you about dermal fillers and how they can help you achieve your desired look after an initial consultation.

Dermal fillers have many uses, including:

  • Smoothing out facial lines and creases 
  • Enhancing lips
  • Lifting saggy cheeks
  • Improving facial symmetry
  • Filling in depressed acne scars

Dermal fillers are a popular cosmetic treatment because the results are immediate and require next to no downtime.

What can I expect during treatment with dermal fillers?

Your provider at Mountcastle Medical & Med Spa customizes your dermal filler treatment plan at your initial consultation. They talk to you about the type of dermal fillers available and how they can help you get the look you want. 

The provider cleans your skin with an antiseptic agent and applies a numbing lotion to minimize discomfort during the injections. The skilled aesthetic practitioner injects small amounts of the dermal filler into the desired area and massages it into place, repeating as needed until they achieve the right look.

What happens after treatment with dermal fillers?

You may have some redness and swelling following your dermal filler session at Mountcastle Medical & Med Spa. The team recommends using ice packs to ease the side effects and any discomfort it causes. 

You can resume most of your normal activities after getting dermal fillers. However, the team advises that you refrain from engaging in strenuous physical activity for two days to reduce the risk of bruising.

Results from dermal fillers are immediate and last six or more months depending on the type of filler used.
