Fillers Q&A

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are an injectable cosmetic treatment that can smooth wrinkles and restore facial volume for a more youthful appearance. Fillers are often made from hyaluronic acid (HA), which is a compound found in your skin that helps keep it hydrated and plump. 

What can fillers treat? 

Fillers can instantly plump up your skin and boost confidence in your appearance. At Bloom Health NP, Sheila may recommend dermal fillers to help you: 

  • Restore thin lips
  • Fill in fine lines and wrinkles
  • Smooth out creases around your nose and mouth
  • Fill under-eye tear troughs and hollows
  • Restore volume to your midface area or temples
  • Rejuvenate aging hands 

If you have volume loss in your face or hands, dermal fillers can meet your needs and help you reach your cosmetic goals. Sheila can explain the different filler options available and help you choose the right fit during your consultation. 

What can I expect for treatment with fillers? 

Treatment with dermal fillers is a simple process. First, your specialist ensures your comfort and may apply a topical numbing cream to prevent any skin discomfort. Then, they expertly inject the filler substance into your desired area. You can expect to see an immediate improvement in your skin. 

While fillers are temporary, they can address several cosmetic concerns and help maintain your youthful look for several months*. You’ll need to return to the Bloom Health NP office for touch-up treatments if you want to keep your desired appearance.  

Can I combine fillers with other treatments?

To help patients achieve the best outcomes, Bloom Health NP often combines dermal fillers with other injectables like Botox®, Xeomin®, or Dysport®. Fillers and neurotoxins like these offer patients a facelift without having to undergo more invasive cosmetic procedures. 

After discussing your goals for treatment, Sheila can tailor an aesthetic plan that best fits your needs. She may also recommend combining your injectables with non-invasive options like facials. 

Taking care of your skin is also vital after you receive cosmetic services. It can also extend your results.
