What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are versatile aesthetic treatments, capable of sculpting youthful contours, reviving lost volume, and erasing the traces of time to reveal your most radiant self. These treatments are highly popular in cosmetic medicine for their ability to provide immediate and natural-looking results with minimal downtime. Dermal fillers are crafted from hyaluronic acid, a natural hydrator found in the skin, which works to keep the skin plump, hydrated, and effortlessly radiant. Other types of fillers may include calcium hydroxyapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, and polymethyl methacrylate microspheres, each offering unique benefits depending on the desired outcome.
Fillers can be used to:
- Plump thin lips
- Enhance shallow contours
- Soften facial creases and wrinkles
- Improve the appearance of recessed scars
- Add volume to cheeks and temples
The results from dermal filler injections are temporary, typically lasting from six months to two years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. At DrSkin Med Spa, our skilled practitioners customize each treatment to meet our patients’ individual needs and goals, ensuring a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.

Ideal for delicate areas requiring subtle enhancement, such as the lips and undereye region, Belotero Balance offers seamless volume restoration and contouring.
Kybella
While not a dermal filler, Kybella is a revolutionary, FDA-approved injectable that expertly sculpts away submental fat, defining your jawline and creating a sleek, contoured profile by targeting and melting away a double chin.

As a non-surgical solution to contour and define your jawline, this exciting treatment offers individuals looking to avoid going under the knife with results visible after a series of tailored Kybella sessions.

Preparing for Your Filler Treatment at DrSkin Med Spa in Tempe, AZ
To ensure the best experience and results for your filler treatment at DrSkin Med Spa, we start with a complimentary consultation to discuss your goals and medical history. In the week leading up to your appointment, avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin and ibuprofen and supplements, such as fish oil and vitamin E, to minimize bruising. Stay well-hydrated and avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before your treatment.
On the day of your appointment, arrive with a clean face free of makeup and skincare products. If possible, plan for a day or two of rest after your treatment, as some swelling or bruising may occur. Feel free to ask any questions during your consultation and treatment to ensure you’re comfortable and well-informed throughout the process. By following these steps, you can help achieve a smooth and successful filler treatment, resulting in the refreshed and youthful appearance you desire.
Hyaluronidase Filler Dissolver at DrSkin Med Spa
At DrSkin Med Spa, we offer Hyaluronidase—an effective solution for dissolving unwanted or misplaced hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers. Whether due to overcorrection, asymmetry, or simply a change in aesthetic preferences, Hyaluronidase provides a quick and reliable way to reverse filler treatments. This enzyme breaks down hyaluronic acid, allowing your body to absorb and eliminate the filler material naturally. The process is precise and tailored to each patient’s needs, ensuring the desired corrections are achieved safely and efficiently.
Our skilled practitioners meticulously administer Hyaluronidase treatments, ensuring minimal discomfort and optimal results. The effects of Hyaluronidase are almost immediate, with full results typically visible within 24 to 48 hours. This treatment not only offers a solution for correcting filler mishaps but also provides peace of mind for those looking to confidently refine their appearance.
Ensuring Comfort During Your Filler Injections at DrSkin Med Spa in Mesa, AZ
At DrSkin Plastic Surgery, Regenerative & Medical Spa, your comfort and well-being are our top priorities. Our skilled physicians use advanced techniques, including dental nerve blockers, Pro-Nox, and BLT 20/10/10—the strongest topical numbing agent available to ensure that your injectable experience is as comfortable and pain-free as possible.
Dental Nerve Blockers: These involve the precise administration of an anesthetic agent near the sensory nerves, effectively numbing specific areas of the mouth and face. Commonly used nerve blocks, such as the infraorbital nerve block and mental nerve block, target areas like the upper lip, lower eyelid, and sides of the nose. By numbing these regions, we can perform filler injections with minimal discomfort, allowing for a more relaxed and pleasant procedure.
Pro-Nox: This state-of-the-art pain management system uses a fixed blend of 50% nitrous oxide (N2O) and 50% oxygen (O2) that’s often referred to as “laughing gas.” Pro-Nox provides quick and effective relief from pain, anxiety, and stress during medical and aesthetic procedures. Patients can self-administer the gas through a mouthpiece, giving them full control over their comfort levels. Pro-Nox is widely used and trusted for enhancing patient experience and satisfaction.
Our experienced practitioners carefully assess your needs and customize the numbing process to provide optimal pain relief, ensuring that you can focus on the beautiful results rather than the procedure itself. At DrSkin Med Spa, we combine our expertise with a compassionate approach to deliver exceptional care and comfort during your filler treatments.

Phoenix Fillers FAQS
What are the key benefits of choosing fillers over other cosmetic treatments?
Choosing fillers offers several benefits over other cosmetic treatments. Fillers provide immediate results, enhancing facial contours, restoring volume, and smoothing wrinkles with minimal downtime. They are minimally invasive, customizable, and versatile, addressing various facial concerns from lips to cheeks. Additionally, fillers stimulate collagen production, leading to long-term improvements in skin texture and firmness. With low-risk and natural-looking results, fillers are an effective option for achieving a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
At DrSkin Med Spa, our skilled practitioners utilize advanced techniques and decades of dedicated training to deliver precise and personalized filler treatments. By selecting the right type of filler and applying their expertise, they ensure you achieve harmonious, natural results that enhance your beauty without appearing overdone. Fillers offer a flexible and reliable solution, whether you’re looking to reduce fine lines, add volume, or correct asymmetry.
How do fillers work to restore volume and smooth wrinkles?
Dermal fillers work by injecting substances, often hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible materials, beneath the skin to add volume and smooth wrinkles. These substances fill in areas where volume has been lost, such as the cheeks or lips, and plump up folds and wrinkles to create a smoother, more youthful appearance. The fillers also stimulate collagen production, which helps to improve skin texture and elasticity over time. The result is a more refreshed and rejuvenated look, with effects that can last from several months to a couple of years, depending on the type of filler used.
What can I expect during and after a filler treatment session?
During the Session: When you arrive for your filler treatment at DrSkin Med Spa, you’ll start with a consultation to discuss your goals and any concerns. Once your procedure has been discussed and customized to your liking, and you’re ready for treatment, the physician will cleanse the treatment area and will apply a topical numbing cream or use dental nerve blockers to ensure your comfort. The filler is then carefully injected using fine needles or cannulas. The process typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the areas treated.
After the Session: Immediately after the treatment, you might experience some mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. These side effects are usually temporary and should subside within a few days. You can expect an immediate improvement in volume and wrinkle reduction; however, full results will become more apparent as the swelling goes down. It’s important to follow any aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner to ensure the best results and minimize any potential side effects.
Are the results from fillers immediate, or do they take time to develop?
Filler results typically present two weeks after your initial treatment. However, it’s common to experience some initial swelling or bruising, which can mask the final results. This swelling usually subsides within a few days, making the full effects more apparent. Over the following weeks, the filler continues to integrate with your tissues and, in some cases, stimulate collagen production for even better long-term outcomes. So, while you’ll see immediate enhancements, the best results are usually visible once the initial swelling has resolved, and the filler has settled.
How do fillers interact with other cosmetic procedures like Botox?
Fillers and neurotoxins like Botox are often used together in cosmetic treatments to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. While fillers add volume and smooth deeper wrinkles, Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. When combined, these treatments can address both static and dynamic wrinkles, creating a smoother and more youthful appearance.
For example, a patient might receive Botox to soften expression lines around the forehead and eyes and fillers to restore volume to the cheeks and lips. This combination allows practitioners to enhance overall facial harmony and balance, providing more natural and complete results. Depending on the patient’s needs and goals, the two treatments can be performed in a single session or spaced out over multiple visits.
Can fillers be used to enhance facial symmetry, and if so, how?
Yes, fillers can effectively enhance facial symmetry. For instance, if one cheek is less prominent than the other, fillers can add volume to create a more balanced appearance. Similarly, fillers can adjust the contours of the jawline, lips, and nose to achieve a more symmetrical look. By carefully assessing your facial structure and using precise injection techniques, fillers can enhance overall facial harmony, giving you a naturally balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
What are dermal fillers, and how are they different from Botox or other neuromodulators?
Botox and other neuromodulators like Jeuveau, Dysport, Xeomin, and Daxxify are designed to address dynamic wrinkles by temporarily relaxing facial muscles and subsequent contractions that lead to and can enhance fine lines and deep rhytides. Neurotoxins do not fill in wrinkles from below the surface of the skin but rather freeze muscles and flatten fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers address static wrinkles and differ by working below the skin’s surface. They add volume and smooth tissue by introducing hyaluronic acid or another natural or synthetic material that plumps and evens out areas that have lost volume, creating better facial balance and symmetry. Both neuromodulators and fillers can be used concurrently during a singular treatment to promote a more youthful, radiant appearance, combat visible signs of aging, and enhance facial structure and contours. Both neuromodulators and dermal fillers have drastically different durations and vary with regard to injection points.
Can I combine dermal fillers and neuromodulators like Botox or Dysport?
Yes, absolutely. This is widely considered a common practice in aesthetic medicine designed to enhance and maximize treatment outcomes. Each treatment successfully addresses different concerns. Combining procedures results in a more natural, youthful, and radiant appearance that maximizes facial contouring, symmetry, and balance.
What is in the dermal filler?
The most familiar component of dermal fillers is hyaluronic acid (HA). Hyaluronic acid is a natural sugar-like substance found in the human body. It’s a gooey compound that acts as a lubricant and padding in the joints and other soft tissue structures. It adds volume to smooth, flatten, and reduce skin imperfections while helping skin retain moisture for a natural-looking, vibrant glow. Other types of dermal fillers include calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-lactic acid (PLLA). Calcium hydroxylapatite, a major mineral component found in human bones, provides structural support and is commonly used to treat and combat deep wrinkles. At the same time, poly-lactic acid, or PLLA, is a biodegradable synthetic material that stimulates collagen production, enhances treatment duration, and optimizes results.
How do I know which dermal filler is best for me?
The best dermal filler is determined by the provider or physician performing your injections and should be discussed with the patient in advance of treatment during their consultation. There are three different types of dermal fillers: hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, and poly-lactic acid, with dozens of available products to choose from. Dermal filler also comes in different durations as each patient has unique concerns, complaints, and aesthetic goals. Patients must consider temporary, semi-permanent, and permanent dermal filler options when considering treatment. Other possible considerations include skin quality, treatment area, patient age, procedural history, metabolic rate, and the provider administering treatment.
What areas are most suitable for dermal fillers?
The most common application for dermal fillers is on the face. However, dermal fillers have been used in various ways all over the body to soften, smooth, sculpt, rejuvenate, and tighten skin by enhancing volume and projection, creating more uniformity and balance. On the face, dermal fillers can be used in almost any area when administered by a physician or master injector. Commonly treated facial structures include the temples, under-eyes, cheeks, nose, nasolabial folds or smile lines, jawline, and chin. Dermal filler can also be used to treat acne scars by filling in divots and camouflaging skin imperfections.
How long do the results from dermal fillers last? How often will I need to have a treatment?
Determining duration with dermal fillers is based on a myriad of factors, but ranges from 9 months to 5 years. On average, hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers last about 1 year, while calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-lactic acid fillers last about 2 years. Treatment should be consistent if you want to maintain your new look, which means patients can expect they will need a refill every 6 to 18 months, depending upon the dermal filler product they’ve chosen during their initial treatment.
Do dermal fillers hurt?
Dermal fillers are a non-surgical product designed to restore volume and rejuvenate the mid and low face. The injector’s training, skill, and experience are critical to patient comfort, as is their technique and injection style. The most important decision made by patients during this process is the physician or master injector selected to perform the treatment. Most treatment areas can be treated with little, if any, discomfort. However, patients do report more tenderness and discomfort with lip injections. At DrSkin Med Spa, we employ a bevy of options to keep patients comfortably numb during treatment, including topical numbing cream, lidocaine injections, dental block, and Pro-Nox™ gas. We also encourage patients seeking dermal filler treatment to use arnica 1 to 2 weeks before and post-procedure to minimize potential swelling, inflammation, and bruising.
Is there any downtime after dermal filler treatment? Can I go back to work the same day?
No, there is no downtime after dermal filler treatment. And yes, patients may return to work the same day if they choose. However, most patients prefer to remove themselves voluntarily from social, work, and athletic activities. This is due to inflammation and minor swelling and bruising that can occur at the injection site and throughout surrounding soft tissue. Strenuous exercise immediately following treatment is also discouraged as dermal filler is unstable for up to 2 weeks and can migrate to untreated areas, altering the results of the procedure. It is also vitally important not to touch, scratch, or massage treated areas, as it can cause product migration before the final results are realized.
Will I look natural after dermal fillers?
Yes, when the dermal filler is administered by a trained and licensed board-certified physician or master injector, it should appear natural, only enhancing your classic beauty. However, patients seeking more dramatic results may opt to use more syringes of dermal filler, which may produce more extreme, artificial results. At DrSkin Med Spa, we encourage patients to provide photographic examples of their desired look during the consultation so our team of doctors can match your facial anatomy and the outcome of your procedure with your dream look.
Can dermal fillers be removed?
Yes, all dermal fillers formulated with hyaluronic acid (HA) can be removed. These fillers are considered temporary and may be safely dissolved at any time by a trained, licensed, board-certified physician or master injector. Other fillers formulated with synthetic compounds are not reversible and can only be dissolved over time, naturally, as your body metabolizes and breaks them down. If you have recently undergone a dermal filler treatment you are looking to undo or want to restore your natural appearance, we encourage you to contact our medical team today at (480) 904-3311 to learn more about your options. Our team of doctors is standing by to assist you!
What can dermal fillers be used for?
Dermal fillers can be used for a multitude of different treatment options. This includes smoothing out fine lines, creases, and skin folds, lip augmentation, and enhancement, restoring facial fat loss with volume to sunken temples and cheeks, flattening out hollow under-eye areas, minimizing skin imperfections, depressions, and scarring, increasing fullness in the hands and regions of the mid and low face, and improving facial symmetry and balance. There are a lot of ways to use and manipulate dermal fillers to optimize results, so the most important decision you will make as a patient will be the provider you select to perform your treatment. Your results rely on your doctor’s training, skill, and technique.
