As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen, elasticity, and volume—leading to fine lines, sagging, and a tired appearance. Dermal fillers offer a safe, effective, and non-surgical solution to rejuvenate and enhance your natural beauty.
At Modern Dermatology, we offer a full range of FDA-approved fillers designed to restore facial volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours with subtle, natural-looking results.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances—most commonly made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring hydrating structure in the skin—that are injected beneath the skin to:
- Restore lost volume
- Smooth fine lines and deeper wrinkles
- Sculpt and define facial features
- Rehydrate and plump the skin
Popular brands include Juvederm®, Restylane®, RHA®, Belotero®, Revanesse®, and Radiesse®.
Areas We Treat with Fillers
- Cheeks – Lift and contour
- Under-eye hollows – Reduce dark circles and tired appearance
- Nasolabial folds – Soften smile lines
- Marionette lines – Lift drooping corners of the mouth
- Lips – Add fullness or definition
- Chin and jawline – Improve facial balance and symmetry
- Hands – Restore volume and reduce visible tendons
What to Expect During Your Visit
- Consultation: We evaluate your goals and facial anatomy to recommend the right product and plan.
- Treatment: Fillers are administered using a fine needle or cannula in the targeted areas. Most contain lidocaine for added comfort.
- Minimal Downtime: Mild swelling or bruising may occur but usually resolves within a few days.
How Long Do Fillers Last?
Longevity depends on the filler type, area treated, and individual metabolism:
- Lips: 6–9 months
- Cheeks / Midface: 12–18 months
- Jawline / Chin: Up to 2 years
- Under eyes: 12 months
- Hands: 1 year or longer
Are Fillers Safe?
Yes—when performed by trained medical professionals, dermal fillers are a safe and effective aesthetic treatment. All fillers used at Modern Dermatology are FDA-approved and administered by board-certified dermatologists.
