Volume loss is one of the earliest and most noticeable signs of aging. Hollows appear under the eyes, cheeks lose their lift, and lines around the mouth become more pronounced.

Frequently asked questions
How long do dermal fillers last?
It depends on the product and the area. Lip filler often lasts six to twelve months, while fillers in the cheeks or jawline can last a year or longer.
Will filler look natural?
Yes, when it’s placed thoughtfully. We focus on restoring structure and balance, and we build gradually so you can see results before adding more.
Does it hurt?
Most patients feel only mild pressure. We apply numbing cream, and many fillers contain lidocaine to keep you comfortable.
Can filler be reversed?
Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you ever want an adjustment. Radiesse® can’t be dissolved this way, so we’ll discuss that before treatment.
