What Are Dermal Fillers?

The Benefits of Dermal Fillers 

Dermal fillers offer numerous benefits for individuals looking to enhance their skin without undergoing surgery. Some of the advantages of dermal filler treatments include:

  • Rejuvenated Appearance: Dermal fillers help combat signs of aging by reducing the appearance of wrinkles, lines, and sagging skin, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed look.
  • Customizable Treatments: Our skilled professionals tailor dermal filler treatments to address the unique concerns and goals of each patient. This ensures personalized results that enhance individual features.
  • Quick and Convenient: Dermal filler treatments are typically quick, taking only a short amount of time to complete. They require minimal downtime, allowing patients to resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
  • Natural-Looking Results: Our dermal fillers are formulated to provide natural-looking results, enhancing your features without an artificial or overdone appearance.
  • Long-Lasting Effects: The effects of dermal fillers can last for several months to over a year, depending on the specific filler used. Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong the results.

What Can Dermal Fillers Treat?

Dermal fillers can effectively address a variety of skin concerns, including:

  • Wrinkle Reduction: Fillers can diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and folds, such as smile lines, marionette lines, and forehead wrinkles.
  • Lip Enhancement: Dermal fillers can add volume, shape, and definition to the lips, creating a plumper and more attractive appearance.
  • Cheek Augmentation: By adding volume to the cheeks, fillers can restore youthful contours and improve overall facial harmony.
  • Under-Eye Hollows: Fillers can reduce the appearance of under-eye hollows, minimizing the tired and aged look.
  • Scar Improvement: Dermal fillers can help improve the appearance of acne scars, making them less noticeable and promoting smoother skin.
  • Non-Surgical Nose Job: Fillers can be used to reshape and enhance the nose, providing subtle changes without the need for surgery.

Meet the Fillers: Your Juvéderm® Options Explained

At Still Well by Dr. Stilwell, we offer a curated range of Juvéderm® fillers. Each is formulated with a unique gel consistency and cross-linking technology to best suit specific treatment areas and aesthetic goals. Whether you’re looking for subtle enhancement or more dramatic correction, our selection ensures precision, longevity, and natural-looking results.

Juvéderm Voluma® XC

Specially designed to restore lost volume in the midface and cheeks, Voluma XC is a thicker, more robust gel ideal for deeper injection. It lifts and contours the cheekbones, rejuvenates age-related hollowness, and can even improve jawline definition. Voluma can last up to 2 years, making it one of the longest-lasting fillers in the Juvéderm line.

Juvéderm Ultra XC

Ultra XC has a smooth, flexible texture that makes it perfect for lip augmentation and moderate wrinkle correction. It adds soft, natural-looking volume to the lips while also minimizing perioral lines (such as smoker’s lines around the mouth). Its pliable nature allows for expressive movement without stiffness, and results typically last 6 to 12 months.

Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC

Thicker and more volumizing than Ultra XC, Ultra Plus XC is well-suited for treating deeper facial folds like nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines. It provides more substantial structural support for areas that need greater lift or correction, making it an ideal option for those with more advanced signs of aging. Results often last up to a year or more with proper maintenance.

By matching each filler to your unique facial anatomy and goals, we’re able to deliver refined, tailored results that never look overdone or artificial.

Our Treatment Process

Initial Consultation and Evaluation

During an initial consultation, our experienced professionals will assess your skin and discuss your desired outcomes. We take time to review your medical history, evaluate your facial structure, and identify key areas of concern. 

Based on this assessment, a customized dermal filler treatment plan will be created to address your specific concerns and goals. Based on this assessment, a customized dermal filler treatment plan will be created to address your specific concerns and goals. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, explore filler options, and feel confident in your decision moving forward.

Treatment

The treatment itself involves the precise injection of dermal fillers into targeted areas of the face. We may apply a topical numbing cream beforehand to enhance your comfort, and most Juvéderm® fillers also contain lidocaine for added ease during the process. 

Our skilled professionals use their expertise to ensure a comfortable and safe procedure. Depending on the extent of the treatment, the process typically takes 30 minutes to an hour. You’ll be able to return to most daily activities shortly after your visit.

After Your Treatment

After the treatment, you may experience minimal swelling or redness, but these effects typically subside quickly. The results of dermal filler treatments are often visible immediately, with continued improvements over the following weeks as the filler settles into place and stimulates collagen production.

Maintaining Your Results

To maintain optimal results, we recommend periodic touch-up treatments as the effects of dermal fillers gradually diminish over time. Our team will provide guidance on the ideal treatment schedule to ensure long-lasting and satisfying outcomes. With regular maintenance and proper skincare, you can prolong the life of your results and continue to enjoy a refreshed, youthful appearance.

Follow a Personalized Maintenance Schedule

Your provider will help determine how often you should return for touch-ups based on the filler used, your aesthetic goals, and how your body responds. For example, Voluma may only need to be refreshed every 18–24 months, while lip fillers may require more frequent maintenance.

Commit to a Quality Skincare Routine

Daily use of high-quality skincare products, especially moisturizers, antioxidants, and SPF, can help preserve the effects of dermal fillers. Keeping your skin hydrated and protected from sun damage supports collagen health and overall skin texture.

Stay Hydrated and Healthy

Hydration plays a key role in maximizing the plumping effect of hyaluronic acid fillers. Drinking plenty of water, maintaining a balanced diet, and avoiding excessive alcohol and smoking can improve filler longevity.

Avoid Aggressive Facial Treatments

Chemical peels, microneedling, or laser resurfacing may affect filler longevity if done too soon after injections. Always consult your provider before scheduling additional facial treatments, especially within the first few weeks of receiving fillers.

Schedule Consistent Check-Ins

Even if you don’t feel ready for a full touch-up, periodic check-ins allow us to assess your results and make subtle enhancements over time. Small, strategic updates can help maintain balance and prevent overcorrection later on.
