Will I Look Overdone?
One of the most popular statements our patients make when they come in for their first facial filler consultation is that they do not want to look “overdone”. The misconception that facial fillers look unnatural is very common. This is partially due to the fact that people who have a more natural facial filler outcome are not noticed as having had facial fillers at all!
When facial fillers are administered properly and to the appropriate area of the face, the outcome is a natural, more refreshed and youthful outcome. They can help you look and feel your best at any age.
What Are Facial Fillers Made Of?
The facial fillers used in our office are primarily hyaluronic acid based. This gel is tissue-friendly and designed to resemble naturally occurring hyaluronic acid that exists in our own bodies. This non-permanent filler is biodegradable and is gradually absorbed by the body over time.
How Do Facial Fillers Work?
Facial fillers revitalize skin by boosting your body’s own natural hyaluronic acid. They can be used to add volume that has been lost due to aging and are also used to diminish fine lines and wrinkles. Administered with a trained eye and hand, they allow for a more uplifted, softer, and youthful appearance.
What Is the Best Facial Filler for Me?
Facial fillers come in many different “thicknesses”. Dr. Sood will examine your face and listen to your concerns and decide which product is best to meet your goals.
Are Facial Fillers Safe?
It is important for anyone considering injectables to know exactly what your provider is using. All facial fillers we use in our office have a proven FDA-endorsed safety record. They are biodegradable and gradually absorbed by your body over time. We do not use permanent fillers in our office.
In addition, the expertise of your injector is of utmost importance. There are complications that can occur, and the risk increases with an improperly trained or inexperienced injector.
