Deep forehead lines, deep 11 lines, tear through (undereye), cheeks, jawline, lips, nasolabial folds (smile lines), smoker lines, chin, earlobes, and some areas on the body.

Filler usually isn’t very painful but you could experience some minor discomfort during the injections. For 2 weeks after you may also have some discomfort (like bruising).

Immediately! After the injections you will have some swelling, possible redness, and possible bruising. After 2 weeks the filler has settled and you have your final results.

Depending on the person and product, filler usually can last anywhere from 6-12 months.

Expect to have 2 weeks of possible tenderness, bruising, swelling, and redness.

(You can take Tylenol to relieve soreness, but avoid NSAIDs like Advil and Aleve, which can thin the blood and increase bruising)

• Avoid makeup the same day 
• Avoid alcohol 24-48 hours before and after your appointment
• Avoid strenuous activity like the gym for 24-48 hours to minimize swelling and bruising
• Try to sleep on your back for the first 2 weeks as the filler settles into place
