What are fillers?

Fillers are FDA-approved injectable treatments that often contain hyaluronic acid, which is an element that your body naturally produces. Fillers temporarily add volume to areas of your face and body. They can improve your facial symmetry, get rid of hand wrinkles, and take years off of your appearance without any pain or downtime.

As you age, your face begins to lose fat, which gives your facial contours smooth, tight skin. Over time, the natural process of getting older causes pronounced smile lines, crow’s feet, and wrinkles around your mouth. 

Wellness Med Art offers different types of fillers, including:

• Juvéderm® XC
• Juvéderm® Voluma™ XC
• Volbella® XC
• Radiesse® hand lifting
• Restylane®
• Belotero Balance®

Depending on your aesthetic desires, your practitioner can give guidance on the best option for you.

Are fillers right for me?

When you visit Wellness Med Art, your practitioner first reviews your medical history, assesses the condition of your skin, and talks with you about your beauty goals. 

You may not be a candidate for fillers if you’re pregnant, have certain pre-existing medical conditions, or are prone to allergic reactions. Your practitioner can assess your condition to determine if fillers are right for you.

What are the benefits of fillers?

Fillers offer numerous benefits when looking to improve your appearance:

• Tighter, smoother skin
• Reduced deep wrinkles
• Plumper, fuller lips
• Better facial symmetry
• Softer facial or body contours
• Decreased shadows in your lower eyelids
• Improved appearance of scars
• Enhanced skin volume
• Younger-looking appearance
• Healthier-looking skin

The team at Wellness Med Art tailors your treatment to your aesthetic goals. You can expect your outcome to be specific to your desired results.

What is it like to get fillers?

Before your treatment begins, your practitioner gives you a numbing application prior to injecting your fillers to ensure you remain comfortable throughout your treatment.

They gently inject the fillers into the targeted areas beneath your skin to smooth it out, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, or add volume. The injections take about 1-2 minutes each. In most cases, you need multiple injections to achieve your desired results.

After your treatment, you can return to your daily routine. Fillers are a safe, simple procedure with minimal side effects, such as slight tenderness at the injection site and minor swelling.
