About Juvederm® & Injectable Fillers
Juvederm® and fillers are versatile treatments that can address various concerns such as volume loss, hollow under-eye circles, sunken cheeks, nose and mouth lines, and thinning lips. They can be used alongside BOTOX® to effectively soften wrinkles for patients in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. However, as we age, additional treatments beyond BOTOX® and fillers may be required to maintain a youthful and natural appearance. Overuse of these treatments can make a person look unnatural and older. That's why choosing an experienced plastic surgeon who can perform both fillers and surgery is important.
The procedure typically takes about an hour to complete. During the procedure, Dr. Fan will use his skills to determine the areas that need to be treated and inject the fillers accordingly. The injections are done with precision and care, ensuring natural and noticeable results.
Other fillers we offer include:
- Restylane®
- Versa®
- Radiesse®
- Sculptura®
- Bellafill®
- Voluma®
Am I a candidate for injectable dermal fillers?
Fillers are suitable for individuals who are bothered by sunken cheeks, thinning lips, facial wrinkles, or folds. These treatments can be beneficial for patients in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, as well as older individuals who require additional treatments to maintain a youthful appearance. Dr. Fan's expertise as both a plastic surgeon and an injector allows him to determine if injectables alone are suitable or if surgery is needed to achieve a natural look.
Recovery
One of the biggest advantages of fillers is that you can resume your normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, it's important to note that temporary side effects such as bruising, swelling, redness, and tenderness are common. These side effects usually subside within several days.
To minimize bruising, it is recommended to avoid aspirin or anti-inflammatories for two weeks prior to the filler treatment. It's also recommended to avoid special events for at least two weeks after the treatment as a precaution.
