Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments aimed at replenishing volume, smoothing wrinkles, and enhancing facial contours. As we age, the skin loses collagen and fat, resulting in sagging and the development of lines. These fillers work to restore a youthful, natural appearance by rejuvenating the skin. At Dr. Julia Milman’s Clinic, we focus on creating balance in facial features, ensuring that each treatment is tailored to complement your unique structure for a refreshed and harmonious look.
Our Goal for Fillers
We aim to achieve results that are:
- Undetectable: Subtle enhancements that blend seamlessly with your natural features.
- Subtle: Focused adjustments that give a refreshed, youthful appearance.
- Refreshed: Restoring vitality and radiance to your face.
- Confidence-Boosting: Helping you feel more confident and comfortable in your skin.
Let us, at Dr. Julia Milman’s Aesthetic Medicine, help you achieve the smoother and fuller appearance you desire. As you age, your face loses volume in bone and fat. The structures of the face can start to shrink and sag. Sunken cheeks and hollowed eyes can make you look tired and older than you are. We can help lift, sculpt and replenish your face to achieve a younger, healthier look.
The pros of this treatment include
- Volumizes sunken temples and cheeks
- Improves thin lips
- Smooths lines near the nose and mouth
- Softens the appearance of scars
- Enhances shallow contours

Treatment
Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers (Radiesse, Restylane, Juvéderm, and RHA) are carefully placed beneath the skin to help lift and sculpt the face. This can help restore lost volume and, with the help of some skincare products, help rebuild your natural collagen, which is lost as we age. Dermal Fillers have next to no downtime; in most cases, you see results immediately. Fillers are often used in conjunction with Neurotoxins to achieve superior results. We may use numbing gel and a nerve block to enhance your comfort. There are several products to choose from, and our expert injectors will select the right path for you during our unique consultation experience. Our goal is to give you an overall natural appearance, but you should leave looking rejuvenated. Whether it’s a chiseled jaw, fuller cheeks, or more plump lips, you can expect filler to provide amazing results!
FAQs
Which areas can dermal fillers address?
Dermal fillers can treat areas such as lips, cheeks, nasolabial folds (nose-to-mouth lines), marionette lines, under-eye hollows, and jawline or chin definition. Additionally, fillers can be used for other areas like earlobes and hands.
Does the dermal filler procedure hurt?
A topical numbing agent is applied to the treatment area before the injections to minimize discomfort. Depending on the area and technique used, the numbing time typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes.
How do dermal fillers work?
Dermal fillers are injected below the skin’s surface to replenish lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and define facial contours. By replenishing volume and stimulating collagen production, they provide support and structure to the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and sagging. The result is a refreshed, rejuvenated, and more youthful appearance.
Are dermal filler treatments safe?
Dermal filler treatments are generally safe when performed by qualified professionals. As with any cosmetic procedure, minor risks such as bruising or swelling may occur, but these are typically temporary. Opting for an experienced practitioner helps minimize these risks.
How long do the results of dermal filler treatments last?
The length of results varies based on factors such as the type of filler, treatment area, and individual metabolism. Normally, results last anywhere from six months to more than a year, and regular maintenance treatments can help sustain the desired look over time.
Are there any pre- or post-treatment guidelines I should follow for dermal filler?
Detailed guidelines will be provided and emailed to you upon scheduling your appointment. Adhering to these guidelines will ensure you achieve the best possible results, while reducing the likelihood of any side effects or complications.
When should I get fillers before an event?
Schedule your dermal filler treatment at least two weeks before a major event for the best results. This time frame allows for complete recovery, and swelling or bruising may occur.
Is there a way to reverse fillers if I'm unsatisfied with the results?
If hyaluronic acid-based fillers were used, we can dissolve them utilizing an enzyme called hyaluronidase. This allows for adjustments or complete reversal if necessary, but it’s only effective on hyaluronic acid fillers.
