Dermal Fillers in Atlanta, GA

At Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery, dermal fillers are often utilized by Atlanta, GA men and women to replace lost facial volume. Your face can lack volume for a variety of reasons, but age and significant weight loss are often the leading causes. This treatment works by incorporating the filler below the skin to fill in sunken or hollow areas. Injectable fillers are a great nonsurgical option if you want to even out sagging skin, wrinkles, and fine lines to create a younger-looking face. They can also be added to other cosmetic treatments to reveal the results of a traditional facelift without undergoing surgery. Plastic surgeon Dr. Brandon-Dzung Mang offers are a variety of fillers at his Duluth, GA office and can help you decide which injectable fillers are right for you.

For Atlanta, GA-area patients, injectable dermal fillers could improve multiple worries and offer various advantages, like:

• Refreshing and plumping areas that have become hollow or flat
• Boosting self-esteem and confidence in your appearance

You are likely an ideal candidate for dermal fillers if you want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without undergoing a surgical facelift. Many of our patients experience significant signs of aging or have recently lost a significant amount of weight, causing areas on their face to appear sunken and shapeless. If this is you, dermal fillers are likely a wonderful option. They are also great for those who do not want to risk the scarring that can occur following a surgical facelift.

Before your procedure, Dr. Mang will meet with you to better understand your cosmetic concerns and goals, and help you decide which product will get you the best results. At the time of your procedure, Dr. Mang will administer numbing cream as an anesthetic to minimize the discomfort of the injections. Dr. Mang will use his experience to determine the amount of filler needed and will continuously and gently inject it through a small needle until he's reached your desired result.

Dermal fillers are done as an in-office procedure in a very short amount of time. Because of the anesthetic, the process is usually pretty tolerable and requires little to no downtime after your appointment. You should expect bruising and swelling, but these symptoms should fade quickly. You can expect your results to last from three months to a year, depending on the type of filler used and the area of injection. Touch-ups may be needed periodically to optimize results; Dr. Mang will discuss that with you to ensure your aesthetic goals continue to be met.

Wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX®, address fine lines and wrinkles (especially on the brow and around the eyes) by reducing the movement of the underlying muscles. Injectable fillers add volume to the face in order to fill in wrinkles, fine lines, and some scars. Dermal fillers may also be used to create fuller cheeks and lips as well as to reduce the appearance of aging on the hands.

How long will the results last?
The longevity of your results will be dependent on what brand(s) is used and what area was treated. For some patients, results may be visible as long as one year, while some patients might need another treatment after a couple of months. Follow-up treatments can be scheduled at our practice in order to maintain your improvements.
