It has been some time since my last visit to Jacksonville Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery. I was extremely impressed with my past visits. The practice has added new members and continues with the excellent and personal service with the patient. Very happy with the experience. Would like to see the addition of Mohs and IG-SRT.

Where Are Dermal Fillers Used?

Dermal fillers can be strategically placed in various face and body areas to enhance natural appearance.

Common Areas for Dermal Fillers

  • Lips: To add volume and definition
  • Cheeks: To restore youthful fullness
  • Under Eyes: To reduce hollows and dark circles
  • Jawline & Chin: For definition and contouring
  • Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines): To smooth deep creases
  • Hands: To reduce signs of aging

How Do Dermal Fillers Work?

Dermal fillers work by plumping up the skin from within, addressing volume loss caused by aging, genetics, or environmental factors.

Procedure & What to Expect

  • Consultation: Your provider will assess your facial anatomy and discuss your aesthetic goals.
  • Preparation: The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied.
  • Injection Process: The filler is strategically injected using fine needles or cannulas.
  • Post-Treatment Care: Mild swelling or bruising may occur but subsides within a few days.
  • Results: Immediate improvement, with final results appearing within two weeks.

How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?

The longevity of dermal fillers depends on the type used and the area treated:

  • Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: 6–18 months
  • Calcium Hydroxylapatite Fillers: 12–18 months
  • Poly-L-lactic Acid Fillers: 2+ years (gradual results)
  • PMMA Fillers: 5+ years
  • Fat Transfer: Long-lasting but may require touch-ups

Are Dermal Fillers Safe?

When performed by a qualified provider, dermal fillers are generally safe. However, potential side effects include:

  • Temporary swelling and bruising
  • Mild discomfort at injection sites
  • Rare risks: lump formation, allergic reaction, vascular complications

Who Is a Good Candidate for Dermal Fillers?

Ideal candidates include individuals looking to:

  • Restore lost facial volume
  • Smooth out wrinkles and fine lines
  • Enhance facial contours
  • Improve symmetry without surgery
