Facial Fillers
At The Aesthetic Collective, we use hyaluronic acid fillers to smooth wrinkles, restore volume, plump lips, and enhance facial contours. Fillers counteract aging effects from sun damage and muscle movement, providing a refreshed look.
FAQ’s
-
The facial fillers used at The aesthetic collective are made from hyaluronic acid. The uses of fillers are known to eliminate wrinkles, plump and hydrate lips, replace volume loss, improve scar depressions, and volumize creases and folds of the face. As we age, our skin becomes more susceptible to wrinkles and fine lines, especially due to sun damage and muscle movement. Facial fillers provide a solution to such damage through facial injections.
-
The cost of filler treatment varies depending on factors like the type of filler used, the amount needed, and specific treatment goals. During your consultation, we’ll discuss pricing details and create a personalized treatment plan that fits your budget.
-
Results from filler treatments are often visible immediately, with optimal results appearing within a few days as any minor swelling subsides. It’s best to plan ahead of your procedure - give yourself at least 2-weeks before attending any going on vacation to allow any swelling or residual bruising to subside. Results also vary based on the site being treated, the amount needed, and of course, the uniqueness of your skin.
-
The longevity of filler results varies based on the type of filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Typically, results can last from six months to two years. We’ll provide guidance on maintaining your results for lasting satisfaction. However, on average, cheek, hand, lower face, jawline, chin, and earlobe fillers last nine to eighteen months. Lips, under-eye, neckline, temples, smile and laugh lines often last less long but at a minimum of six months. Sculptra, on the other hand, can last up to three years!
-
The number of filler treatments needed depends on your aesthetic goals and the areas being treated. Many clients achieve their desired results with just one session, while others may benefit from multiple treatments over time for longevity (see question above).
-
Filler treatments typically require minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately afterward. Some clients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site, which usually resolves quickly. However, it’s still recommended to plan 2 weeks ahead of any vacations or major events. We’ll provide post-treatment care instructions to ensure a comfortable and smooth recovery process.
