What Are Injectable Fillers?
Injectable fillers are a minimally invasive procedure for rejuvenating and smoothing out the skin. Depending on the filler being used, the benefits of these treatments often last as long as one year. Dr. Carp may recommend this procedure as a standalone treatment or in combination with plastic surgery. Injectable fillers can also produce temporary results similar to those of surgery.
Since the procedure is minimally invasive, there is no recovery time to interrupt your everyday routine. The healing process is fast, and most patients can resume their regular activities very soon following treatment.
Injectable Fillers Benefits
Injectable filler treatments usually take less than one hour and require no downtime. Some patients will require several treatments, but you will nonetheless notice some results after a single treatment: The benefits of injectable fillers are as follows:
- Do not require pre-testing
- Treatment benefits last and are noticeable right away
- Patients can usually resume their normal activities immediately
What Kinds of Injectable Fillers Are Available?
All of the fillers we offer improve the visible signs of aging that develop in certain parts of the face. Dr. Carp will use his extensive expertise to determine the right filler for your needs. The various fillers we offer here in our office include:
Injectable Fillers Treatment Process
The filler will be injected into the parts of your face where wrinkles and fine lines are apparent. Fine lines require the filler to be delivered to the outermost skin layers, whereas deeper wrinkles and lines require delivery to the innermost layers. A very thin needle is used to inject the fillers, and it’s not uncommon to feel a stinging sensation whenever it is inserted. However, most people find that the discomfort is not significant enough to warrant the use of an anesthetic.
Injectable Fillers Preparation
You will not be required to perform any preparations before your treatment. All you need to do is schedule about one hour out of your day.
Injectable Fillers Recovery
Injectable filler treatments are quick, simple, and virtually painless. In rare cases, some patients may experience bruising, swelling, or tenderness at or near the injection sites. You won’t have to rest following your treatment. Just go about your day as usual.
