Dermal Fillers
Muscle movement and sun damage cause wrinkles and fine lines in our skin as we age. An injection of dermal fillers restores lost volume, smoothes lines, softens creases, or enhances facial contours. Dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a compound that occurs naturally in the body. When these treatments are administered, the skin appears more hydrated, plump, and healthy due to its ability to retain moisture.
In addition to erasing fine lines and wrinkles, dermal fillers restore the volume of hollow areas of the skin. Several cosmetic treatments can also be performed with filler injections under the guidance of a professional aesthetic practitioner, such as the ones here at Transformations Wellness Spa. Some filler treatments we offer are lip filler, chin filler, cheek filler, jawline filler, and hand filler.

Dermal Fillers are gel-like substances that are injected into the body (often the face) to help diminish fine lines or scars, plump the lips or restore volume and fullness in areas that volume has been lost due to weight-loss or aging.

Some of the benefits of dermal fillers are:
- Smoother and softer skin
- Plumper, re-hydrated lips
- Smooth out chin creases
- Safe Procedures
- Zero downtime
- Fast, long-lasting results
How it’s done:
The procedure itself will take between 20-30 minutes to perform and has minimal discomfort. Your provider will use a combination of topical numbing cream and injectable lidocaine prior to starting. After your provider cleans the area(s) to be treated with an Antiseptic prep, a needle or cannula is then used to inject product into the correct tissue plane. Bruising and swelling is expected post treatment. Client’s will need to plan events with expected recovery time. Client’s will typically see swelling and bruising subside within two weeks. Up to 6 weeks is normal, however.
FAQs
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable fillers made from hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in our bodies. They are used for eliminating wrinkles, adding volume to problem areas of the skin caused by old age and muscle movements.
How do dermal fillers work?
The softness and gel-like consistency of HA fillers allow them to maintain plumpness and hydration in the skin after injection. It takes the body 6 to 12 months to absorb the particles, so the results are temporary.
Will the dermal filler treatment be painful?
Most patients report feeling a pinch or a slight burn when injected, but a topical anesthetic is used to numb the area before injection to help with that.
When will I see the results?
Injections usually produce immediate results.
