Reverse Aging with Volume: How Injectable Dermal Fillers Make Your Face Look Younger Without Plastic Surgery

You feel young and greet the world with plenty of energy – but too often, your reflection shows someone who looks much older than you feel. If that sounds familiar, or if you just have certain imperfections in your facial features you would like to fix without surgery, injectable soft tissue fillers (a.k.a. dermal fillers) may be a great option for you.

We spoke with our team of Monarch Nurse Injectors to find out what patients want to know when exploring dermal filler options. We’ve assembled their Q&As below. To learn more about what injectable dermal fillers can do for you personally, schedule your complimentary consultation with one of our Nurse Injectors today.

What is an injectable dermal filler, and how can it reduce the appearance of aging and imperfections?

The signs of aging on the face are natural – collagen, elastin, subcutaneous fat and other natural support layers in the skin break down as we get older. We all age differently due to genetics and lifestyle factors, but the natural losses of volume, elasticity, and hydration lead to ever-deepening wrinkles, lines, folds around the forehead, eyes, cheeks, mouth and chin. These subcutaneous break downs lead to crow’s feet, forehead creases, frown lines, laugh lines, marionette lines and more.

Fortunately, injectable dermal fillers offer safe, effective, minimally invasive options to reduce the appearance of aging on your face. Some dermal fillers hydrate the skin with hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant). Others add fullness and volume to areas like lips and cheeks to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, or destroy fat cells to provide contouring and reduce double chins.

What are my options for injectables at Monarch?

At the Skin Rejuvenation Center of Monarch Plastic Surgery, we provide a wide range of injectables to enhance or restore facial contours and help you look and feel younger. The table below provides a quick overview – for additional details about each product, visit our Injectable Dermal Fillers page here.

How much do injectables/dermal fillers cost?

Prices vary depending on the injectables/dermal fillers used. We offer high-quality care, products, and services at competitive pricing because our goal is the same as yours: natural-looking results at affordable prices. If you are new to our practice, we encourage you to schedule a free consultation with our nurse injectors. We’ll talk about your appearance goals and create personalized treatment recommendations with pricing information included.

How quickly will I see results, and how long will they last?

Results times also vary depending on your treatment plan and choice of injectable/filler. Some injectables give immediate results, while others minimize the appearance of wrinkles or folds over time. Several of our injectable products are proven to last for up to one year, 18 months and even two years with optimal treatment.

She is patient and explains everything, keeps it all pain free, and won’t let you spend money on extras if she doesn’t think you need it. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
