Dermal Filler in Lexington, MA
Add definition & volume
Dermal fillers are injectables used to replace volume loss in the face. As we age, we lose facial fat, collagen, and elastin. This leads to the descent of skin and underlying tissues, resulting in an aged appearance.
Fillers are a non-surgical way to replace volume in the face. Fillers are typically made of hyaluronic acid and have a moisturizing effect such as smoothing and volumizing the lips.
Common areas that can be treated are; cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and scars.
The duration of dermal filler treatment varies but typically lasts 12+ months.
JUVÉDERM®, RHA and Restylane products are both hyaluronic acid fillers available at Stellar.

Dermal Filler FAQs
-
JUVÉDERM®, Restylane, and RHA are hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers used to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They are commonly used to treat areas such as the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and under-eye hollows, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
-
Both JUVÉDERM® and Restylane work by injecting hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that retains moisture and adds volume. The fillers attract water to the treated area, plumping up the skin, smoothing out lines and wrinkles, and adding definition to facial features. The results are immediate and can last from 6 to 18 months, depending on the specific product and treatment area.
-
While JUVÉDERM®, Restylane, and RHA are all hyaluronic acid fillers, they differ in their formulations and consistency. The choice between the three depends on the treatment area, individual skin quality, and desired results, which your provider can help determine.

The treatment involves a series of small injections using a fine needle or microcannula. The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the areas treated. Most fillers contain lidocaine to minimize discomfort, but a topical numbing cream can also be applied. After the treatment, you may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few days. You can resume normal activities immediately, but it is advised to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun or heat exposure for 24-48 hours.
