5 Benefits of Facial Fillers

Facial fillers are one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments in the United States. They add volume under your skin to smooth out lines and wrinkles, plump up lips, and enhance your natural beauty.

Have you been thinking about facial fillers, but you’re not sure if they’re right for you?

Dr. Kelly Distefano and our team of experienced aestheticians at Montclair Rejuvenation Center in Verona, New Jersey, want to share some of the benefits to facial fillers, which may explain its popularity.

1. Treatments are fast

One of the reasons so many people choose facial fillers to enhance their natural beauty is because treatments are quick. We can have you in and out of the office looking better than ever in an hour or less.

However, before placing your facial fillers, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation to develop your personalized beauty plan. This may be completed on the same day as your injections or before. 

2. Results are immediate

Unlike other aesthetic treatments, you’ll notice an improvement in your look right away. During your facial fillers appointment, we carefully inject the filler into very precise areas of your face and massage it into place to get the desired results. We never overfill, so you won’t look overdone or inflated. 

We use the Juvéderm® and Restylane® line of fillers, which contain hyaluronic acid gel that keeps your skin plump and hydrated. 

Though you may notice some redness and swelling at the site of the injection, these side effects resolve quickly. 

3. Resume your normal day after treatment

Another benefit of facial fillers is that there’s no need for any downtime after your session. Once you leave our office, you can resume your normal day.

However, to prevent bruising we recommend you skip your strenuous workout for at least 24 to 48 hours. 

4. Keep you looking fabulous for a year or more

How long your facial fillers last depends on the type of filler used. However, with our facial fillers, you can expect your results to last up to a year.

We recommend you take good care of your skin to prolong the beauty benefits. This includes daily application of sunscreen and wearing wide-brimmed hats and large sunglasses if you have to spend long hours outside in the sun. 

5. Works well with Botox

Facial fillers add volume and fill in facial lines and creases. But they can’t fix all age-related beauty concerns. 

For a more dramatic effect, we may suggest combining your facial fillers with Botox® injections. Botox specifically addresses lines and wrinkles created by facial expressions, including crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles.

We provide your facial fillers and Botox injections at the same appointment. 

We love nothing more than helping you look as young as you feel. To learn more about facial fillers and our other aesthetic treatments, get in touch with us by calling the office or booking an appointment online today.
