Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore volume and smooth lines and wrinkles on the face. These versatile injectables are composed of biocompatible substances, such as hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, or poly-L-lactic acid, which are safely and gradually absorbed by the body over time. By adding volume to areas that have lost fullness due to aging or other factors, dermal fillers can help diminish the appearance of wrinkles, folds, and hollows, creating a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
At Southern Urogynecology Wellness and Aesthetics, we prioritize your comfort and safety throughout the dermal filler process. The minimally invasive procedure typically takes less than an hour to complete. First, your provider will carefully assess your areas of concern and develop a customized treatment plan.
