Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to restore volume to the skin, reducing wrinkles and fine lines. At Wave Medical Aesthetics, we use Restylane®, a hyaluronic acid-based filler, to improve facial contours and smooth out skin irregularities. Hyaluronic acid, naturally found in the skin, works by attracting moisture, which adds fullness and hydrates the treated areas. This treatment is versatile, addressing concerns in various areas such as the lips, cheeks, under-eye hollows, and nasolabial folds. The chin, jawline, and temples can also be enhanced with dermal fillers.
Dermal fillers in Needham, MA, are ideal for people who want to enhance their facial features or reduce the appearance of aging without invasive surgery. Results from the treatment are noticeable almost immediately, with full effects developing within a few days. Depending on the area treated and the type of filler used, results typically last between 6 to 18 months. There is little to no downtime associated with the procedure, allowing patients to quickly return to their daily routines.

Who is a good candidate for dermal fillers?
Fillers can be used to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging, or to enhance specific facial features like lips, cheeks, or jawlines. This treatment is best for those in good health with realistic expectations of the outcomes and a preference for non-surgical options.
How long does it take for dermal fillers to show results?
Results from dermal fillers are typically visible right after treatment, as initial swelling decreases within a few days. The treated areas will appear smoother, with more defined facial contours.
How long do results from dermal fillers last?
The longevity of dermal filler results depends on the treatment area, type of filler, and the patient’s metabolism. Results usually last between six and 18 months. It is possible to extend the effects with regular maintenance.
Do dermal fillers have any side effects or downtime?
There is minimal downtime with dermal fillers. Most patients can resume their normal activities after treatment. Symptoms such as redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site usually subside within a few days.
What should I do before and after dermal filler treatment?
Before treatment, avoid alcohol, blood-thinning medications, and supplements like aspirin or fish oil to reduce the risk of bruising. After the procedure, refrain from touching or massaging the treated areas and keep your head elevated when resting. Avoid strenuous exercise, extreme heat, and direct sun exposure for 24 to 48 hours to minimize swelling and bruising.
How will the dermal filler treatment go?
During the dermal filler procedure, the provider will cleanse the area and may apply a numbing cream to reduce discomfort. Filler is injected using a fine needle or cannula. It usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated. Post-treatment, there may be some swelling or redness, which typically resolves within a few days.
