What are Injectable dermal Fillers?
Over the years, your face loses fullness due to the natural breakdown of collagen as you get older. For men and women who want to fill in lost facial volume to attain a more youthful glow, injectable dermal fillers are a popular nonsurgical option. The expert team at Elysium SurgiSpa is pleased to offer a lineup of customizable dermal fillers from leading manufacturers like Allergan and Galderma. During your consultation, we can recommend the right formula for your specific goals, such as filling in sunken or hollow areas in the skin, as well as evening out fine lines and wrinkles for a softer appearance.

What are the Benefits of Injectable Dermal Fillers?
Facelift surgery is an invasive procedure that requires a long time to recover. Dermal fillers, however, only take a few minutes to administer. With the help of fillers, you can achieve a younger-looking appearance instantly with little to no downtime. Depending on the kind of filler used, your refreshed results may last up to a full year. Additionally, if you’re not happy with the results, fillers are easily dissolved and removed. Our team at Elysium SurgiSpa will be happy to explain the different types of fillers and their associated benefits during your consultation.
Am I A Good Candidate For Injectable Dermal Fillers?
Ideal candidates for injectable fillers are those seeking to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without having a surgical facelift. Often, individuals who have recently lost significant amounts of weight have spots on their faces that are sunken and shapeless. These attributes make them great contenders for injectable fillers. Fillers are also a great option for men and women who do not want to risk the scarring that can result from a surgical facelift.
How Do Dermal Fillers Work?
During your consultation in Chicago, IL, we will learn about your cosmetic goals and create a personalized treatment plan, and your injections can typically be administered during the same visit. Dermal fillers are carefully placed into the selected facial areas using a fine needle. Most patients say this feels like a pinch or pinprick, but we can apply a topical anesthetic cream to minimize any discomfort if needed. The entire process is quick, often taking less than an hour, and you can usually return to your daily activities immediately.
What to Expect After Receiving Dermal Fillers
Initial swelling or bruising is expected, but these symptoms will fade away within a couple of days. Results are visible almost instantly, with full effects becoming apparent over the next few days as any minor swelling subsides. Depending on the product and the placement of the injection, typical results can last from three months to a year. Regular follow-up appointments ensure the best outcomes and allow for any necessary touch-ups.
Dermal Fillers FAQ
How much do injectable fillers cost?
The cost for your injectable filler will depend on the brand of filler and how much you need. During your consultation, we will create a treatment plan that matches your needs. We will also give you a cost estimate for your treatment, including any current specials we have.
How do I know which injectable filler is right for me?
The filler that we use depends on which area(s) we treat and your desired results. Whether you want to reduce wrinkles or enhance your lips, we will ask about your goals before suggesting the correct filler for you. Now that there are so many different brands of fillers, it can be challenging to select which one works best for your needs and goals, which is why our team of aesthetic professionals helps ensure you get your best results.
What is the difference between wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers?
A wrinkle relaxer treats lines and wrinkles (especially in the forehead and in the corners of the eyes) by reducing the movement of facial muscles. Fillers add volume to your face to fill in lines, wrinkles, and depressions. Dermal fillers may also add more volume to your cheeks and lips.
How long will the results last?
How long your results last will depend on what brand(s) we use and the area(s) treated. In some people, products may be visible for a year while others might need a repeat treatment after a couple of months. To sustain your results, we can also schedule follow-up treatments at our office.
What areas of my face can I treat with dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers can improve signs of aging by restoring volume or smoothing static lines. We can use fillers on mild to moderate marionette lines, parentheses, and corner lines around your nose and mouth. Also, they can temporarily add volume to your cheeks and lips.
