Types of Facial Fillers Treatment

What is a facial filler?

If you have heard of dermal fillers, which are injectable compounds that restore lost skin volume, then you already know what a facial filler is. Dermal fillers can be used on the face and elsewhere on the body, but for this article we will focus on the fillers used on facial skin.



What are applications of facial fillers?

  • Adding volume to thinning lips
  • Lifting eyebrows
  • Enhancing cheekbones and making cheeks look fuller
  • Erasing under-eye circles
  • Smoothing smile lines
  • Skin rejuvenation
  •  Minimizing lines and wrinkles


What is the procedure?

Fillers are injected into the deep layers of the skin using a local anesthesia. Time taken is less than an hour, and there is no downtime afterwards.

How to choose the right filler?

Obviously, your Jupiter FL doctor will check your skin and note your expectations on aesthetics before he or she recommends a product for your treatment. However, there are many fillers to choose from, several for one type of treatment, other factors such as your budget or lasting power of results will influence the selection. Allergies may also play a role in making a decision.

What are the types of facial fillers treatment?

Juvederm- This is a series of fillers that can be used on different areas of the face. Juvederm Voluma XC is great for plumping up cheeks. Juvederm Ultra X is to add volume to the lips. This is a biocompatible filler made out of hyaluronic acid and is very safe.

Restylane – This is also a family of injectables achieving different purposes. Removing lines and folds on the skin was its original function, but now it has diversified into achieving other results such as filling out lips.



Sculptra Aesthetic -This is made up of a synthetic compound and not Hyaluronic acid like the above two. It is used to fill in sunken areas of the skin and reduce lines and wrinkles. It is not injected into the skin around eyes or used on the lips.

Radiesse – Moderate to severe facial creases are treated by this. It is not used on the lips. This is made up of a calcium compound.
