Experiencing volume loss is one of the most common signs of aging. As a result, we often see the formation of fine lines, wrinkles, and hollows across the face. This normal aging process is due to the thinning of facial tissues. 

Facial Filler, also known as Dermal Fillers, replace lost volume to treat these aging changes to provide a smooth and youthful appearance. Facial Fillers can also be used to sculpt facial features such as the jawline, lips, under eyes and more.

What Are Facial Fillers?

Facial fillers are a gel-like substance that is injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines and soften creases, or enhance facial contours. There are three main types of facial fillers; temporary, semi-permanent, and permanent.

Facial Fillers in Tampa, FL

Temporary Facial Filler:

Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: Restylane®, Versa®, and Revanesse Lips+

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance in the body, helping the skin stay plump and hydrated. On average Hyaluronic Acid fillers last between 6-18 months before they are naturally absorbed within the body. 

 

Semi-Permanent Facial Filler:

Poly-L-Lactic Acid Filler: Sculptra®

Poly-L-lactic Acid is another powerful collagen stimulator that has shown significant improvements in the body’s own collagen production. This biocompatible (meaning it is safe to use in the body), biodegradable, synthetic substance is a great option for deeper set lines and wrinkles.

Temporary Fillers: last 2-4 years*

 

Permanent Facial Filler:

Collagen and PMMA Filler: Bellafill®

Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is a synthetic, biocompatible substance that has been used in medicine for much of the last century. PMMA fillers present themselves under the surface of the skin as “microspheres” or tiny balls which provide continued support. 

Permanent Fillers: Permanent/Non-absorbable*

 

Facial Filler FAQ:

Unlike other practices we offer a number solutions to manage your discomfort when getting facial fillers. We offer local anesthetic (lidocaine), numbing cream (topical), relaxation medication, nitrous oxide (laughing gas), and more.

72 hours before treatment we recommend refraining use of alcohol, advil, aleve, ibuprofen, waxing, hair removal creams, and vitamin E oil. Avoiding these prior to treatment will minimize bruising, bleeding, and discomfort.
