What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are an effective aesthetic solution to combat visible signs of aging. These minimally invasive injectables can address volume loss and skin laxity that naturally occurs with age.

What are dermal fillers made of?

The top-of-the-line fillers utilized at Maryland Eye Care Center contain hyaluronic acid gel, which replenishes volume beneath the skin.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring hydrating substance found in the body, particularly in areas requiring constant lubrication, such as the eyes, joints, and connective tissues.

What kind of results can dermal fillers achieve?

At Maryland Eye Care Center, the team customizes filler treatments to align with your aesthetic goals and address specific areas of concern. Fillers offer a variety of enhancements, including:

Lip augmentation
Reduction of lip wrinkles
Smoothing of smile lines and marionette lines
Restoration of cheek plumpness
Volume addition to temples
Chin crease smoothing
Diminishment of indented scars
Enhancement of facial symmetry

Expect results from dermal fillers to last around nine months on average. Maintaining regular appointments with Maryland Eye Care Center can help sustain a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

How should I prepare for my filler appointment?

Preparing for filler injections is straightforward. Following a brief consultation with your Maryland Eye Care Center provider to ensure fillers are a good fit for your needs and goals, you may be advised to refrain from blood-thinning medications like aspirin and ibuprofen for 4-5 days prior. This helps to minimize the risk of bruising after your procedure.

How should I care for my skin after getting fillers?

Following dermal filler injections, you can resume your normal, everyday activities. However, it's important to protect your skin from the sun and extreme heat sources during the healing process. Refrain from touching or rubbing the treated area for at least six hours.

Some redness and swelling are completely normal after filler treatment. To alleviate redness, apply a cold compress to the face for 15-minute intervals every 2-3 hours until your symptoms subside.
