Introduction

Dermal Fillers

As we age, our skin loses its youthful fullness. Geria Dermatology offers fillers to help restore volume to the face, lips, and hand. Fillers are popular for several reasons. Our New Jersey patients like to be able to return to everyday activities immediately after getting most types of fillers. They also like the immediate results that many types of fillers deliver. Patients also like that they can get this treatment during a quick office visit.

 Our practice is conveniently located to serve Dermal Filler treatment patients in Rutherford, Verona, Bergen, and Essex Counties.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are commonly used to smooth out deep wrinkles and restore volume to areas that may have lost fullness over time. They can be applied to hollowed regions like the cheeks, under-eye area, temples, and around the mouth—areas often affected by aging.

In addition to the natural aging process, sun damage can accelerate the formation of wrinkles, while genetics may contribute to looser skin in some individuals, making them more prone to facial sagging.

 The three different types of dermal fillers that are more commonly used:

  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA)

Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are a top choice for many because they attract and retain moisture, providing a natural volume boost beneath the skin. These fillers are commonly used to enhance the lips, smooth out wrinkles and folds, and reduce the appearance of scars. The results typically last between four to six months.

  • Poly-L-Lactic Acid

Poly-L-lactic acid-based dermal fillers are effective for treating nasolabial folds, smile lines, and other facial wrinkles. They stimulate collagen production, helping restore volume and create a smoother, more youthful appearance.

  • Calcium Hydroxylapatite

Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) is a highly researched dermal filler known for its effectiveness in treating moderate to severe facial lines and folds and restoring lost volume. It is derived from the naturally occurring mineral calcium apatite. It is biodegradable and gradually reabsorbed by the body.

With a number of fillers now available, we can diminish signs of aging that appear on the face, lips, and hands. Fillers can effectively:

  • Add volume to cheeks, under-eye hollows, and deep facial creases
  • Smooth out scars
  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines
  • Enhance lip fullness
  • Lift and rejuvenate a downturned mouth
  • Restore youthful volume to hands

What Are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?

Patients who have received dermal fillers at our New Jersey practice have experienced a range of benefits, including:

  • Customizable treatments that can be combined with other procedures
  • Minimal to no downtime for a quick recovery
  • Instant, noticeable results
  • Boosts the production of elastin and collagen for healthier skin

Who Are The Best Candidates For Dermal Fillers?

Individuals seeking non-surgical solutions to address signs of aging, such as facial volume loss, moderate to severe wrinkles, and fine lines, are ideal candidates for dermal filler treatments in New Jersey.

You may be a great candidate for dermal fillers if you:

  • Prioritize maintaining healthy skin
  • Are concerned about the visible effects of aging
  • Are in good overall health
  • Hold realistic expectations about the results
  • Are a non-smoker
  • Have experienced volume loss or noticeable wrinkles

Active infections on or near the injection sites must be fully treated before undergoing a dermal filler treatment. It is best to schedule a consultation to learn more about potential risks.

What’s the
First Step?

Starting your journey with dermal fillers in New Jersey begins with scheduling a consultation at our office. During this visit, you’ll meet with one of our experienced providers, who will evaluate your skin and discuss your medical history. Open communication is key to ensuring your safety and minimizing any potential risks, so feel free to share all relevant details. Your provider will take the time to answer all your questions, making sure you feel informed and confident in your decisions.

Once we’ve gathered all the necessary information, your provider will create a personalized treatment plan designed to meet your aesthetic goals. If you’re ready to proceed, we can often perform the treatment on the same day. Alternatively, if you’d like to schedule for another time, our Patient Coordinator will be happy to find a convenient appointment that fits your schedule.

What to Expect On the Day of a Dermal Filler Treatment

Your dermal filler treatment will take place at our clinic, where we ensure a fast, comfortable experience. We’ll have you settle into a reclining chair, then apply a cold compress or topical anesthetic cream to the treatment area. While dermal fillers are generally well-tolerated, these steps help maximize your comfort during the process.

Dr. Geria will then skillfully inject the dermal filler into the targeted areas using a fine needle, carefully considering your unique features to achieve natural, balanced results. Throughout the treatment, your provider may gently massage the area to ensure the filler is evenly distributed for a smooth outcome.

After the injections, your provider will assess the results and make any necessary adjustments to ensure perfect symmetry. Depending on the areas being treated and the type of filler used, the entire procedure usually takes 10 to 30 minutes.

Dermal Filler recovery

Most patients find recovery quick and easy. After treatment, mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur, but these side effects are temporary and usually resolve on their own within a few days. 

You can resume your normal activities immediately, but we recommend avoiding intense exercise and heat exposure for a week to minimize swelling and bruising. It’s also best to stay out of direct sunlight and tanning beds during this time.

To ensure optimal results, we’ll provide you with aftercare instructions, which may include hydration tips and gentle skin care advice. With a little attention to post-treatment care, you’ll be on track to enjoy smooth, glowing skin and enhanced features in no time!

Types of Dermal Fillers We Use

  • Restylane – This hyaluronic acid-based injectable can address a variety of aesthetic concerns, such as wrinkles, smile lines, marionette lines, under-eye hollows, cheek volume, and so much more! It works by replenishing your skin’s natural hyaluronic acid, adding volume and hydration for a more youthful appearance. Restylane provides natural-looking results with minimal downtime, and results typically last six months to a year.
  • Lyft – Restylane Lyft addresses the loss of volume that occurs with aging, particularly in the cheeks, midface, and backs of the hands, for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The treatment involves a quick and minimally invasive procedure, and the results are natural-looking and long-lasting, typically lasting 6-12 months. 
  • Defyne – Restylane Defyne utilizes the latest technology to address deeper facial wrinkles, particularly around the mouth and nose. It helps smooth out prominent lines like nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines, restoring a more youthful and refreshed appearance. In addition to its wrinkle-smoothing capabilities, Defyne is also ideal for correcting a moderately recessed chin, providing subtle volume and definition to improve facial harmony. 
  • Refine – This versatile formula helps treat softer, more subtle wrinkles. Thanks to its unique formulation, it will seamlessly integrate with your skin’s natural structure, creating smooth and flexible results that move with your natural facial expressions. 
  • Silk – Restylane Silk is the first FDA-approved dermal filler specifically designed for lip augmentation. It offers a refined approach to smoothing your lips and providing smooth, natural-looking volume and definition. Silk is also highly effective in addressing perioral lip lines, commonly referred to as “lipstick lines” or “smoker’s lines,” which can become more pronounced with age or lifestyle factors. Restylane Silk offers a subtle yet transformative solution for a more balanced and refreshed smile.
  • Juvederm – Juvederm, an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler, is designed to address signs of aging, restore facial contours, and enhance lips. Approved in 2006, Juvederm integrates seamlessly into the skin, offering natural-looking, long-lasting results that replenish lost volume, smooth out wrinkles and folds, and enhance your lips and cheeks. The filler attracts moisture to keep skin plump and hydrated, with results lasting from six months to two years, depending on the area treated.
  • Voluma – Juvederm Voluma is designed to restore volume to the cheeks, which often become hollow and gaunt with age. This smooth, dense gel provides a natural lift to the mid-face, enhancing contour and creating a more youthful appearance. Voluma’s unique formulation offers longer-lasting results, typically up to two years, making it ideal for those looking to reduce cheek hollowness and achieve a refreshed, lifted look without surgery. The treatment is minimally invasive with little to no downtime.
  • Vollure – Juvederm Vollure is another volume filler from Allergan’s VyCross line. It is less dense than Voluma, and depending on the patient’s aesthetic goals, it can be placed deeply or superficially. It is often used to treat harsh age lines, such as the nasolabial folds.
  • Volbella – Volbella is a highly sought-after dermal filler specifically designed to enhance the lips by restoring shape, volume, and definition. Whether you’re looking to plump up naturally thin lips or achieve a more youthful, fuller appearance, Juvederm Volbella provides a smooth, natural-looking result. In addition to adding volume, it also works to smooth away stubborn perioral lip lines—often referred to as “smoker’s lines”—that can develop around the mouth due to aging or repeated facial movements. With its finely textured formula, Volbella offers subtle, long-lasting enhancement, giving you a beautifully sculpted pout with a soft, natural feel.
  • Juvederm XC – Juvederm XC is a popular dermal filler that targets the same concerns as the original Juvederm, such as smoothing out wrinkles, filling in facial lines, and restoring volume to areas like the cheeks and under the eyes. What sets Juvederm XC apart is the inclusion of lidocaine, a local anesthetic, which helps minimize any discomfort during the treatment. This added numbing agent ensures a more comfortable experience for patients, especially in sensitive areas while delivering the same smooth, natural-looking results that Juvederm is known for. 
  • Belotero – Belotero is an injectable hyaluronic acid filler designed to smooth out moderate to deep facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and smile lines. Its unique Cohesive Polydensified Matrix (CPM) technology gives it a smooth, flexible texture, allowing it to integrate seamlessly into the skin for natural-looking results.
  • Radiesse – Radiesse is a powerful dermal filler designed to restore volume to areas of the face that have lost fullness, such as the temples and jawline. It is also effective in smoothing age-related wrinkles and rejuvenating the hands. The filler consists of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel. These microspheres immediately provide structure beneath the skin while stimulating the body’s natural collagen production to enhance volume and smoothness over time.

To determine the best option for you, a consultation with one of our skincare specialists is essential. During this meeting, they will assess the type of wrinkles and age lines you have, along with your medical history, to ensure a safe and effective treatment.

Once we understand your goals, we’ll walk you through the treatment plan and provide you with preparation instructions for your appointment.
