From restoring volume to your lips and chin, to contouring your jawline and cheeks, Filler can assist you in reaching your desired look. Follow along as we dive into everything you will need to know about Filler including what is filler and how much filler is in one syringe.
WHAT IS FILLER?
Did you know Filler is made up of a natural substance that is found in the body? Yep, that’s right. Hyaluronic acid is the key substance that keeps you looking youthful and glowing. Sadly, at the age 25 we stop producing hyaluronic acid and collagen which is why our features become flatter, saggy, and wrinkly. Filler can help enhance your natural beauty, whether that’s adding more volume or restoring any areas of lost volume. Common places to get filler are in the lips, cheeks, jaw, and chin.
HOW MUCH FILLER IS IN ONE SYRINGE?
Each syringe of Filler contains 1mL. This is 1/5th of a teaspoon! To some this many not sound like a lot to achieve your deserved look, however, Filler goes a long way. Rule of thumb is to always start with less to make sure you’re happy with the outcome. More can always be added!
WHO CAN ADMINISTER FILLER?
If you’re nervous about your Filler appointment don’t be! Our licensed medical providers have all of the experience and knowledge around Filler amongst many other injectables. Each month our team of providers educate others in the field, further their own knowledge, improve technique, and much more. Our #1 goal is that you’re comfortable with your provider and ecstatic with your results.
DOES FILLER HURT?
The number one question we get asked is “how bad does Filler hurt”. During your Filler appointment our providers will make you feel as comfortable as possible. If it’s your first time we understand that there may be some nerves. To ease any discomfort, we numb all patients for at least 30 minutes so that the treated area can be relaxed. Additionally, we have comforting tools available such as stress balls and facial vibrating devices that distract the mind of any discomfort and allow you to focus on just the vibration sensation. Trust us, they really work!
WHEN DO YOU SEE RESULTS WITH FILLER?
The best part about Filler is there is instant gratification. You will notice a more voluminous appearance immediately after your treatment. For 2 weeks after your appointment, your Filler will be healing so you may experience swelling that will go down during recovery.
