Dermal Fillers Near Dallas

The Fundamentals of Filler: Answering Your Questions

Achieving the look you want doesn’t have to mean going under the knife and signing up for a lengthy downtime. With dermal fillers, you can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, restore volume, and enhance your natural appearance.

At Cernero Surgery & Aesthetics, our dermal fillers near Dallas help patients reach their aesthetic goals. From subtle changes to dramatic enhancements, we can restore what time has taken away.

What are dermal fillers?

Injectable dermal fillers consist of a hyaluronic acid-based gel that works within the structure of your skin to fill wrinkles and restore volume. Hyaluronic acid also stimulates your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, 2 proteins that keep skin firm and tight.

What type of wrinkles does filler treat?

If you see folds, hollows, or lines on your face when it’s at rest, you have static wrinkles. These wrinkles form due to collagen loss, natural aging, sun exposure, and even genetics. Dermal fillers treat static wrinkles, restoring volume and promoting collagen production for long-lasting results.

What areas of my face can I get filler?

Anywhere you see static wrinkles, you can receive dermal filler injections. Dr. Cernero closely examines your face and asks about your areas of concern to determine the ideal injection placement.

Our patients commonly receive filler for their:

  • Cheeks, to restore volume
  • Lips, to enhance their shape and size
  • Forehead, to improve deep wrinkles
  • Lower face, to reduce smile lines or marionette lines
  • Chin, to fill out creases

What downtime should I expect?

One of the best things about dermal fillers is that you won’t have downtime! Once you leave our practice, you can return to your daily activities and enjoy a refreshed appearance. For the next few days, you should stay hydrated, use gentle skincare products, and wear sunscreen. You may notice slight swelling from the injections, but that should fade within a few days.

How long do my results last?

Since the fillers provide volume and also enhance the skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin, your results can last up to 18 months.

Typically, Dr. Cernero recommends coming back every 6 to 12 months to receive a touch-up appointment to keep you looking consistently youthful.
