Frequently asked questions related to cosmetic injections and dermal fillers answered

At The L.A.B. Med Spa, our providers offer Southlake, Texas, area patients solutions for the unwanted signs of aging. This includes our popular dermal fillers, providing an alternative to invasive brow lifts and facelifts performed by a plastic surgeon. Let’s look closely at dermal fillers and their benefits with this list of frequently asked questions compiled by our team.

What are dermal fillers?

Our providers describe dermal fillers as injectable elements that are used to restore volume, smooth out wrinkles and improve facial contours. Most dermal fillers are formulated with hyaluronic acid which is naturally present in our bodies. These gel-like injections are administered in specific areas of the face to add contours and volume where needed, smoothing away fine lines and wrinkles that may be contributing to a more aged appearance in both men and women. 

What are the benefits of dermal fillers?

Patients at The L.A.B. Med Spa favor various dermal fillers for numerous reasons. One particular benefit of dermal fillers is their capability to provide immediate results. Dermal fillers offer instant gratification while other anti-aging treatments, such as creams or serums, take weeks or even months to show signs of visible improvement. This is particularly appealing to people who are looking for a quick solution to improve their appearance.

Moreover, dermal fillers are non-invasive and involve minimal to no downtime. This means that our patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. The injections are also relatively painless, with most patients reporting only mild discomfort during the treatment. 

Dermal fillers are also extremely versatile. They can be used to address a variety of concerns, including enhancing lip volume, reducing the exterior of smile lines and marionette lines, and restoring volume in areas like the cheeks and under the eyes. The type and amount of filler used can be tailored to each patient’s specific needs, making it a customizable treatment for anyone who visits our practice.

How long do the results of dermal fillers last?

The duration of most fillers ranges from four to eight months, based on the product and treated areas. Reinjection is needed as the results are not permanent, but continued injections can help maintain a more youthful appearance and slow the cues of aging on male and female faces.
