If you’ve flipped through the latest issue of US Weekly while sitting in Dr. Davis’ office, you’re no doubt all too familiar with the flawless faces of the famous. But let’s face it, celebrity or not, we ALL want to look and feel our best, just like the A-listers. The good news is you can do just that without having to go under the knife.
As we age, our skin begins to lose elasticity and volume, causing wrinkles and sagging skin. Sometimes these changes can be a swift kick to our confidence. Some patients may notice these minor skin imperfections which they don’t feel warrant cosmetic surgery, but they’re not necessarily crazy about them either. In cases like this, dermal fillers can be a practical solution.
Dermal fillers help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The process is less invasive than traditional cosmetic surgery with a vastly shorter recovery time. Fillers can contain naturally occurring substances, like collagen or fat, which virtually eliminates long-term irritation or rejection for most patients. Here’s what you should know about dermal fillers:
How they work
Fillers are injected beneath the skin to add volume to trouble spots, rejuvenating and enhancing the patient’s natural facial features.
Recovery time
Patients may experience mild swelling and bruising for several days but can generally resume their normal daily activities with no major restrictions.
How long will they last?
On average, most patients can expect to see results for about 3-5 months.
The truth is you don’t need to be a celebrity to reap these benefits. Our office is here to help you feel like a million bucks, without having to spend it. Give us a call at 817-778-4444 to discuss if dermal fillers are right for you.
