What are Facial Fillers?

Facial fillers are injectable substances designed to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and rejuvenate the skin. They are commonly used to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. At Thompson Facial Plastics, we offer a range of facial fillers in Denver to address various concerns such as volume loss and wrinkles by adding volume beneath the skin. For dynamic lines caused by muscle movement (like forehead lines and crow’s feet), many patients also pair their dermal fillers with BOTOX.

Am I a Candidate for Facial Fillers?

Facial fillers in Denver are suitable for individuals who want to enhance their facial features, restore lost volume, or reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Ideal candidates are generally in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the procedure's outcomes. During a consultation with our experienced injector, we will assess your concerns and determine if dermal fillers are the right option for you.

What are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers in Denver?

Dermal fillers can provide subtle, natural-looking enhancements while addressing volume loss and changes in facial contours. Benefits may include:

  • Restore lost volume
  • Smooth wrinkles and fine lines
  • Enhance facial contours
  • Minimally invasive with little to no downtime
  • Natural-looking results

What Can I Expect from My Facial Filler Procedure?

Your dermal filler in Denver begins with an assessment of your facial anatomy, concerns, and aesthetic goals. Your injector will determine which areas may benefit from filler and select a product based on the location being treated and the type of result you are looking for.

Before treatment, the area will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort. The filler is then strategically injected into the targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. Treatment typically takes around 30 minutes, although the exact time can vary depending on the areas being treated.

Some swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness may occur after treatment. These effects are generally temporary, and many patients can return to their normal activities shortly after their appointment.

Facial fillers can be used in different areas of the face depending on the type of filler selected and your individual goals. At Thompson Facial Plastics, dermal fillers may be used to address concerns such as:

  • Cheeks: Restore volume and enhance facial contours
  • Lips: Add volume and improve lip shape and definition
  • Nasolabial folds: Soften the appearance of lines extending from the nose toward the corners of the mouth
  • Facial volume loss: Restore fullness in areas affected by age-related volume changes

During your consultation, your injector will evaluate your facial anatomy and discuss which treatment areas and filler products may be appropriate for you.

Cheek Fillers in Denver

Cheek fillers can restore volume to the midface and enhance the natural contours of the cheeks. As we age, changes in facial volume can contribute to a flatter or less defined appearance in the cheeks and midface. Dermal fillers can be strategically placed to restore volume and create more balanced facial contours.

At Thompson Facial Plastics, cheek filler treatment is customized to each patient's facial structure and aesthetic goals. Depending on your needs, filler may be used to enhance cheek definition, restore age-related volume loss, or create a subtle lift through the midface. The goal is to complement your existing features while maintaining a natural-looking appearance.

What's the difference between BOTOX and dermal fillers?

While both BOTOX and dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to rejuvenate the face, they work in different ways. BOTOX temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles, while dermal fillers add volume to smooth out lines and wrinkles.

How soon will I see results?

Results from facial fillers are typically immediate, although there may be some initial swelling or bruising that subsides within a few days. You will notice further improvement as any swelling resolves and the filler settles into place.

What is the recovery like?

The recovery time for facial fillers is minimal, with most patients able to resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Some swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites may occur but usually resolves within a few days.

Are dermal fillers painful?

Discomfort during the facial filler procedure is usually minimal, as a topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to ensure your comfort. Additionally, many fillers contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to further minimize discomfort during the injection process.

Will my results be permanent?

The results of facial fillers are not permanent and typically last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Maintenance treatments are usually recommended to maintain your desired results.

Are there any risks or side effects associated with dermal fillers?

While facial fillers are generally safe when administered by a trained and experienced injector, some potential risks and side effects may include bruising, swelling, redness, and tenderness at the injection sites. These are usually mild and temporary, resolving within a few days. In rare cases, more serious complications such as infection or allergic reactions may occur, but these are extremely rare when performed by a qualified professional.

How long do the results of cheek fillers last?

Cheek filler results are not permanent but can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used, your metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Maintenance treatments are recommended to keep your desired look over time.
