Dermal Fillers in Houston, TX

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal or facial fillers are injections used to reduce wrinkles and increase facial volume. Different kinds of dermal fillers exist. Medical professionals frequently inject these around the eyes, nose, and mouth. This popular cosmetic procedure usually yields immediate results that linger for months or even years.

Adding volume to the lips, marionette lines, nasolabial folds, and oral commissures is typical for facial fillers. As we age, the collagen in these facial areas decreases, deepening the wrinkles. Dermal fillers are injected just beneath the skin to plump up these areas and make these wrinkles less noticeable.

Our dentists use fillers to correct uneven lips and high lip lines and improve the appearance of the perioral area. With facial fillers, your face will look younger.

What are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?

As you age, your body starts to lose collagen, an essential molecule that keeps the skin strong and young-looking by helping the growth of new cells. When collagen is lost, your skin becomes thinner, less elastic, and droopy.

Getting face fillers can help you in the following ways:

• Increasing the volume of the skin.
• Achieving greater symmetry in your facial features.
• Enhancing your lips and cheekbones.
• Minimizing the lines and folds surrounding the mouth.

What Happens in a Dermal Filler Treatment?

Lava Dental offers dermal fillers in Houston, TX. Below are the typical steps in a dermal filler treatment:

1. To make the procedure more comfortable, one of our dentists will clean your skin and apply an anesthetic lotion or cream to numb the affected area.

2. Fillers will be injected beneath your skin using a tiny needle. Multiple locations may be injected. The entire procedure could take an hour or only a few minutes.

3. We will clean your skin after administering dermal filler injections. An ice pack will be applied to the skin to help with bruising or swelling.
