Are Dermal Fillers Right for Me?

What are the different types of beauty filler available?

Beauty or dermal fillers have become increasingly popular as a way to reduce the appearance

of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. With so many different types of beauty fillers available, it

can be difficult to know which one is right for you. From hyaluronic acid-based fillers to collagen-

stimulating fillers, there are a variety of options to choose from when it comes to beauty filler

treatments. Fortunately, the experts at ClarityMD will work with you to decide what filler will work

best for your skin type and desired results.




What is the recommended amount of beauty filler for my age and skin

type?

Dermal fillers are the secret weapon in ClarityMD’s beauty arsenal. Fillers can produce instant

results to enhance your beauty and turn back the clock. The burning question is: how much is

enough or should we say, how much is too much? The amount of beauty filler you should use

depends on your age and skin type. Younger people typically require less beauty filler, while

older people may need more. Additionally, different skin types require different amounts of

beauty filler - oily skin may need more than dry skin. Knowing the right amount of beauty filler

for your age and skin type is what our aestheticians are best at! All you need to do is let us

know what your skin goals are, and we can do the rest.


What should I expect during and after a beauty filler treatment?

Dermal filler treatments involve injecting a substance into the skin, usually hyaluronic acid or

collagen, in order to fill out wrinkles and other imperfections. The entire process takes about 15-

30 minutes depending on the area being treated.


After the treatment, you may experience some swelling, redness or bruising in the area that was

treated. Your ClarityMD provider will use icing as needed and give home instructions to keep

the swelling and bruising to a minimum. These effects should subside within a few days but if

they persist then it is best you give us a call at the spa. You should also avoid any activities that

could cause further swelling such as exercising or going out in hot weather for at least 24 hours.



How much dermal filler comes in a syringe?

So, how much dermal filler comes in a single syringe? The answer depends on the type of filler

being used, as different types come in different amounts. Generally speaking, most syringes

contain anywhere from 1 to 5 milliliters of dermal filler. This can vary depending on the type and

brand of the product being injected, as well as how much is needed for the desired result.


How much dermal filler will I need?

The amount of dermal filler required can vary depending on the area being treated and your

individual needs. Your ClarityMD aesthetician can help you determine how much dermal filler is

needed for your specific situation and provide advice on the best treatment plan for you.


Are there any potential side effects associated with using beauty fillers?

One of the most common questions we get about filler is what are the potential side effects

associated with using them? While beauty fillers can provide great results, there is also the

potential for adverse reactions and other risks. The American Academy of Dermatology states

that some common side effects can include:

  • Pain, bruising and swelling at the injection site

  • Skin flaking and irritation from the ingredient used in the filler product

  • Itching and dryness on your skin after treatment-Infection or scarring of injected area.


At ClarityMD, Dr. Jodie Harper believes in mastering the latest techniques in aesthetics with

ongoing training for the entire team. We will work with you to ensure the best results possible to

help you achieve the skin of your dreams.



How often do I need to get a beauty filler treatment?

Depending on the type of filler used, the frequency of treatments can vary from every few

months to once a year. The biggest factor is how your body will metabolize the filler. The

experts at ClarityMD will help you monitor your progress and let you know when it might be time

for another treatment.
