Dermal Fillers 

Dermal fillers are most often used to plump and smooth out contours where fat naturally gets lost as we age, particularly in the following areas of the face:

• Temples

• Tear trough/Underneath the eyes

• Upper cheeks and cheekbones

• Nasolabial folds and marionette lines

• Lips

• Nose (non-surgical rhinoplasty, liquid rhinoplasty)

• Jaw

• Chin

• Deep facial or neck wrinkles/scars

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q.1 IS IT TREATMENT PAINFUL?

Dermal filler treatment is generally not a painful procedure, however, some areas of the face may be more sensitive (e.g. around the lips) than others and everyone experiences pain differently. Dermal fillers often contain a pre-mixed local anesthetic to minimize any discomfort that may be experienced. Dr. Nayan also uses a specialized formulation of topical local anesthetic cream to help minimize any discomfort during injection of the dermal filler and also uses specific injection techniques to help reduce pain.

q.2 HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO RECOVER AND SEE RESULTS?

While there is no downtime, you may have a bit of bruising, swelling, or redness in and around the treatment area. You will begin to notice effects immediately after treatment.

q.3 HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST?

Results from a single dermal filler treatment can last up to a year, though results vary. Because dermal fillers are naturally metabolized by the body, repeat treatments are required to maintain results.
