What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers, such as JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, Restylane Kysse, and Revanesse® Versa™, are often utilized to replenish lost facial volume. The face can lose volume for various reasons, but significant weight loss and age are the leading causes. This treatment works by injecting the liquid filler under the skin’s surface to fill sunken or hollowed areas. Fillers are a great, minimally invasive alternative for Thousand Oaks, CA individuals desiring to even out fine lines, sagging skin, and wrinkles to create a younger-looking appearance. Dermal fillers can also be added to other cosmetic procedures to provide the benefits of a facelift without surgery, the risk of scars, and the required downtime accompanying an invasive procedure. Various types of fillers can help meet the goals and expectations of each patient. To decide which injectable fillers are best for you, we encourage you to visit Sante | aesthetics & wellness where Lovelle Valencia and her team of aesthetic nurses can help you learn more.

How Are Dermal Fillers Performed?

Before your dermal filler procedure, your provider will meet with you to learn more about your desired results and determine the best product to help you achieve your goals. At the time of the actual procedure, topical numbing cream will be used as an anesthetic to make the injections as pain-free as possible. After the necessary amount of filler has been determined, it will carefully and evenly be injected via a small needle. Keeping the desired result in mind, either a portion or an entire syringe could be used during the procedure.
