What Do Dermal Fillers Do?
Dermal fillers are highly versatile and can be customized to address a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including:
Plumping and defining the lips
Lifting and restoring volume to the cheeks
Smoothing nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, crow’s feet, and glabellar lines.
Contouring the jawline and chin
Filling in under-eye hollows for a rested appearance
How Do Dermal Fillers Work?
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance in your body that helps retain moisture and softness. When strategically injected beneath the skin, HA acts like a sponge, drawing in water to instantly plump the tissue, fill in wrinkles, and rebuild structural support where collagen and fat have diminished over time.

Instant, visible volume restoration and lifting
Highly customizable to achieve subtle or dramatic results
Quick treatment times with minimal downtime
Reversible and adjustable for complete peace of mind
Beautifully integrates with your tissue for natural facial expressions
The Treatment Process

Comfort: Most premium fillers contain lidocaine to maximize your comfort during the injection. SkinWise Rx also uses topical numbing when necessary to ensure the process is as painless as possible.
Results, Recovery, and Cost
Timeline: You will see an immediate change in volume right after your appointment, with the final, settled results visible after about two weeks once any minor swelling subsides.
Longevity: Depending on the specific product used, the treatment area, and your individual metabolism, dermal fillers typically last anywhere from 6 to 18 months.
Cost: Treatments start at $750 per syringe.
