What Are Cosmetic Fillers?

Cosmetic fillers, also known as dermal fillers or injectable fillers, are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours.

Common Uses:

What Sets Our Jacksonville Filler Treatments Apart?

Not all injectors are created equal, and your face is not the place to cut corners. At Jacksonville Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery, your treatment is:

  • 🧑‍⚕️ Performed by a board-certified dermatologist or medical expert
  • ✍️ Custom-mapped to your facial anatomy
  • 💬 Based on a detailed consultation with natural results in mind
  • 💉 Done in a medical setting—not a salon or discount spa

We specialize in refined, artistic injections that enhance your features without making you look “overdone” or frozen.

Who Gets Fillers in Jacksonville?

People from all walks of life—and all ages—choose fillers to feel more confident in their skin.

Common Patient Groups:

  • Professionals seeking a fresher look without downtime
  • Mothers restoring volume lost during weight fluctuation or pregnancy
  • Men looking to define their jawline or soften deep folds
  • Patients 50+ addressing sagging or volume loss in a subtle way

What to Expect During Your Filler Appointment

Consultation

We’ll review your goals, examine your facial structure, and create a tailored plan.

Injection

The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes. Most fillers contain lidocaine to enhance comfort.

Aftercare

  • Mild swelling or bruising is common for 1–3 days
  • Avoid strenuous exercise or alcohol for 24 hours
  • Results appear immediately, with full settling in 7–14 days

Filler Safety: Why Experience Matters

Fillers are safe when administered properly, but the risks increase dramatically with unqualified injectors. At our Jacksonville clinic, your safety is our top priority. We follow strict protocols and offer only FDA-approved products in a sterile medical environment.

Fillers + Other Treatments: The Power Combo

Many patients combine fillers with other minimally invasive treatments for a complete rejuvenation plan:

  • Botox® or Dysport® to relax dynamic wrinkles
  • Medical-grade skincare to maintain results between appointments

Our dermatologists can create a personalized facial harmony plan tailored to your goals and lifestyle.
