What Are Injectables and Dermal Fillers?

Injectables and dermal fillers are minimally invasive cosmetic procedures designed to enhance your appearance. Dermal fillers aim to address the early signs of aging by plumping wrinkles or facial folds to rejuvenate the skin and revitalize your appearance.

Most dermal fillers are comprised of hyaluronic acid (HA) or other substances that naturally occur in the body. With minimal downtime and discomfort, dermal fillers are safe for most patients and are administered in quick appointments. Dermal fillers hydrate and refresh the skin while also encouraging collagen production, enhancing the skin’s appearance over time. Depending on the filler, results may last 6 to 24 months.

Fillers enhance and refresh the skin’s youthful appearance by reducing lines and restoring volume. With many filler formulas, the expert injectors at Valley Aesthetics can provide a versatile anti-aging treatment that:

  • Reduces lines, wrinkles, and folds
  • Minimizes the appearance of scars, including acne scars
  • Restores volume in the lips, cheeks, and other areas
  • Replenishes hollowed areas under the eyes and temples
  • Defines the chin and jawline

Other injectable treatments offered at Valley Aesthetics Institute include biostimulator fillers and Kybella®. Biostimulator injectables, such as Sculptra® and Radiesse®, gradually restore lost volume to improve the skin’s overall condition and address signs of aging by encouraging collagen production. Kybella® is a revolutionary injectable submental fat-reduction treatment that helps improve a double chin appearance.

Which Injectables and Dermal Fillers Do We Offer?

At Valley Aesthetics Institute, we offer multiple injectables and dermal filler brands and formulas to ensure we can help our patients achieve the best possible results. We offer multiple injectable and dermal formulations from Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Revanesse Versa®, Radiesse®, Belotero®, and Kybella®.

Juvéderm®

The Juvéderm® family of fillers uses hyaluronic acid (HA) to add volume and hydrate the skin. They provide an instant lift and versatile formulas to enhance lips, nasolabial folds, facial creases, sagging cheeks, and the undereye area. Among the Juvéderm® family, Voluma is specifically designed to restore volume and create lift in the midface to address the cheeks, temples, and jawline.

Juvéderm® results typically last 6 to 12 months after the first treatment, and following treatments may last 12 to 18 months.

Restylane®

Restylane® fillers use hyaluronic acid (HA) to smooth skin, restore fullness, and boost collagen production. Formulated to mimic your body’s HA, they provide long-lasting results for moderate to severe facial wrinkles.

With immediate visible results, Restylane® results last 6 to 18 months.

Radiesse®

Radiesse® is a biostimulator filler designed to enhance facial definition by replenishing lost structural volume. Composed of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, Radiesse® offers immediate plumping effects and gradual results that build over time. Its proprietary formula also stimulates the body’s natural collagen production, leading to continued improvements in the skin’s texture and firmness. Radiesse® effectively restores facial fullness to achieve results that can last up to 2 years.

Belotero

Belotero® is an efficient dermal filler designed to provide a natural appearance and texture for moderate to severe wrinkles and lines. It employs a hyaluronic acid gel that integrates with the skin’s tissues to enhance skin volume, reducing the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles. With multiple formulations, Belotero® offers a versatile solution to address various facial aesthetic concerns.

Kybella®

Kybella® is an FDA-approved, minimally invasive, injectable procedure used to treat moderate to severe submental fat to contour the chin, jawline, and neck. By reducing the appearance of a double chin, Kybella® helps restore facial balance and proportions.

Injectable Kybella® is comprised of deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally produced by the body, which eliminates submental fat cells beneath the chin and processes them through the body’s waste system.

Typically, treatment takes an hour and works to remove the unwanted fat while preventing future fat storage in the treated area. Kybella® offers gradual and cumulative results; patients generally achieve optimal results in 3 to 5 treatments scheduled 4 to 6 weeks apart. Once the ideal profile is achieved, touch-up treatments are not usually necessary.

Am I a Good Candidate for Injectables and Dermal Fillers in Mesa, AZ?

Most people considering injectable treatments are looking for minimally invasive methods to enhance their appearance and achieve subtle, natural-looking results. Candidates for dermal fillers are generally healthy but are looking for minimally invasive procedures to improve the signs of aging, such as facial volume loss, lines, wrinkles, thinning lips, or hollowed areas. Kybella® candidates are healthy individuals looking to improve the appearance of their double chin or submental fullness.

Mesa injectable treatment candidates should:

  • Be in good overall health and live a healthy lifestyle
  • Be at least 22 years old; some fillers are approved for 18-year-olds
  • Be a non-smoker or willing to quit all nicotine at least 48 hours before and after treatment
  • Not be pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Have a positive outlook and realistic goals for the procedure
  • Understand the risks and benefits

Preparing for Your Glendale Dermal Filler or Injectable Session

It’s important to be in good overall health before any injectable treatment. Dr. Sanniec and his expert team will provide thorough instructions on preparing for your treatment. While they will customize each injectable or dermal filler treatment for each patient, here is some general information.

  • Stay well-hydrated before and after your procedure. Avoid alcohol and caffeine as they can contribute to dehydration, bleeding, or bruising.
  • Smoking is detrimental to your overall health and can greatly impact your injectable results. As such, Dr. Sanniec recommends stopping smoking or using nicotine products at least 48 hours before and after injectables.
  • Follow your pre-procedure medication protocol as determined during your consultation. This may include avoiding blood-thinning medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, or herbal supplements that may increase bleeding for 3 to 6 days.

What to Expect on the Day of Your Dermal Filler and Injectable Treatment

Come to your appointment with clean, moisturized skin free of makeup. You’ll meet with one of our expert injectors to review the details of your injectable treatment and answer any final questions you might have.

Typically, injectable procedures are quick and relatively painless. Our expert injectors will meticulously target the areas that will create natural-looking enhancements. Most patients report minimal discomfort. It’s important to discuss your pain concerns with your injector before beginning treatment.

Depending on the number of treatment areas, your injectable procedure may take 15 to 60 minutes.

What to Expect After Your Injectable or Filler Treatment

Following an injectable treatment, you can resume most normal activities without downtime. You may notice redness, slight bruising, or swelling around the injection sites. These side effects will gradually subside over the next few hours to days. Your injector may recommend icing the area to alleviate discomfort.

After your dermal filler treatment, your injector may recommend taking Tylenol and applying cold compresses for discomfort and avoiding:

  • Touching or massaging the treated areas for 2 to 4 hours
  • Exercising or other strenuous activities for 24 hours
  • Applying makeup for 24 hours
  • Sun or heat exposure for 24 hours
  • Consuming alcohol, caffeine, or spicy foods and smoking for 24 to 48 hours

The full results of your dermal filler treatment will be noticeable after 3 to 4 weeks.

After a Kybella® treatment, you can expect bruising and swelling that lasts up to 2 weeks. It’s important to avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours after treatment. The full results of your Kybella® treatment are visible 2 weeks after your final treatment. Most patients need 2 to 3 treatments.

How Soon Will I See My Arizona Dermal Filler and Injectable Results?

Each patient will experience unique results from their filler treatment. Many patients experience immediate results; however, biostimulators like Sculptra or Radiesse work gradually, delivering results over several weeks. Fillers typically take between 2 to 4 weeks to settle.

With optimal filler placement, results may last from 6 to 24 months. Patient results depend on their body’s metabolism, the treatment area, and the product used. Our experts will help create a schedule based on your experience with fillers.

Following Kybella® treatments, patients experience swelling and bruising that may last for 2 weeks. Kybella® offers gradual results with cumulative results after each session. Most patients need 3 to 5 sessions scheduled 4 to 6 weeks apart.

While Kybella® significantly eliminates submental fat cells, it does not remove all of them. As the remaining fat cells can continue growing larger, it’s important to avoid weight fluctuations.
