What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are made of biocompatible substances that add volume to lax skin. The treatment involves injections containing hyaluronic acid, polylactic acid, or other FDA-approved substances. The injections increase volume, improve contours, and take years off your appearance without invasive treatments.
Under-Eye Filler (Tear Trough Treatment)
Under-eye filler, also known as tear trough treatment, addresses the hollows and dark circles beneath your eyes that can make you look tired or older than you feel:
- Reduced under-eye hollows and tear troughs
- Diminished dark circles and shadows
- Smoother, more refreshed under-eye appearance
How Does Under-Eye Filler Work?
Under-eye filler uses specially formulated hyaluronic acid products to fill in the hollow area between your lower eyelid and cheek, known as the tear trough. This area naturally loses volume with age, creating shadows that appear as dark circles. By carefully injecting small amounts of filler into this delicate area, we can restore volume and create a smooth transition from the lower eyelid to the cheek. This treatment requires an experienced injector due to the thin skin and proximity to important structures. Results are immediate and can last 12-18 months. Many patients find this treatment makes them look years younger and more well-rested.
What are the different types of fillers?
BP Royal Medspa offers the following fillers:
Juvéderm®
Juvéderm is made of hyaluronic acid. It minimizes lines and wrinkles, improves volume, reduces scarring, and improves your skin's overall appearance. It can also plump your lips.
Restylane®
Restylane also consists of hyaluronic acid. It diminishes lines and wrinkles, restores a smoother skin texture, plumps your lips, and maximizes contours.
Sculptra®
Sculptra contains polylactic acid. It fills in lines caused by facial expressions, plumps your lips, and reduces other imperfections. Sculptra works well in the lower part of the face.
Sculptra could also be used in non-surgical Brazilian butt lifts (BBL) and hip dip repair.
Which dermal fillers are best for me?
The BP Royal Medspa experts have mastered the art of non-surgical facial enhancement. They begin each session with an in-depth consultation, reviewing your aesthetic goals, examining your skin, and discussing your medical history.
You might be a candidate for dermal fillers combined with Botox®, Dysport®, PDO threading, or laser treatments to create a non-surgical facelift.
What should I expect during dermal filler injections?
Your aesthetic specialist cleans and numbs the treatment area while you relax. They gently inject one or more dermal fillers beneath your skin in specific areas. The injections are fast, making treatment with dermal fillers an excellent lunchtime procedure.
Afterward, you can resume typical daily activities right away. Temporary side effects include swelling, redness, and tenderness. You'll notice the effects of most fillers immediately, with continued improvements appearing during the next day or two when any swelling subsides.
The final results of Sculptra injections often appear within several months, as your body produces more collagen and elastin.
Fillers often last 6-24 months, depending on the type of fillers you receive. Repeat treatments provide long-lasting results.
