Dermal Fillers

Dermal Fillers, like Restylane or Juvederm, are medical gels that are injected beneath the dermis to add contouring and volume to lips, cheeks, temples and other areas of the face and hands. These last 9-18 months on average. Every client is medically cleared by our Medical Director to ensure they are appropriate for care. Our clinic has a focus on Women and Men over 35 and emphasizes a natural look. We do not offer "duck lips" but will refer you to other practitioners if this is desired.

Who Should Consider Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are a versatile treatment option that can benefit a variety of individuals, including:


  • Those who notice visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, or volume loss in the face.
  • Individuals who desire to enhance certain facial features like lips or cheekbones.
  • People experiencing hollow under-eye areas or sunken cheeks.
  • Those who want to improve their overall facial symmetry.
  • Individuals looking for a non-surgical alternative to achieve a youthful appearance.


If you're seeking to restore youthfulness, enhance your natural features or improve facial balance, dermal fillers could be the ideal solution for you. Each case is individually evaluated by our Medical Director to ensure the suitability of fillers for every client.

Aftercare Instructions for Dermal Fillers

Once you've undergone a dermal filler treatment, it's crucial to follow certain aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results:


  • Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours post-treatment.
  • Minimize exposure to intense heat (sunbathing, saunas) or extreme cold.
  • Refrain from intense physical activity or workouts for 24-48 hours.
  • Keep the skin clean and hydrated.
  • Avoid alcohol, aspirin, and other blood-thinning medications unless approved by your practitioner.
  • If swelling occurs, apply a cold compress to the area.


By adhering to these tips, you can help ensure a successful outcome and longevity of your dermal fillers. It’s important to remember that individual recovery times may vary, and any concerns should be addressed with your practitioner at Waterloo Medical Cosmetics.

FAQs

Still Have Questions?

Contact Us

  • How long do the results of dermal fillers last?

    The longevity of dermal filler treatments can vary depending on several factors, including the type of filler used, the area treated, and individual metabolic factors. 


    Generally, dermal fillers such as Restylane and Revanesse can last between 6 to 18 months. However, individual results may vary. 


    At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, we create personalized treatment plans that aim to deliver long-lasting results, and regular follow-up appointments can be scheduled to maintain the desired effect.

  • Can I request specific styles or trends in dermal fillers?

    At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, our primary goal is to enhance your natural beauty and ensure a balanced, aesthetically pleasing result. 


    We maintain a conservative approach to volume application in order to achieve results that harmonize with your unique facial features. 


    As such, we deliberately avoid excessive filler use that could lead to exaggerated aesthetics like "Russian lips" or "Duck lips". 


    However, we understand that aesthetic preferences vary. If you are specifically interested in these styles, we're more than happy to recommend clinics that specialize in those particular aesthetics.

  • Can I combine dermal fillers with other treatments?

    Absolutely, it's frequent for our clients to pair dermal fillers services with other treatments such as Botox/Dysport or Laser Skin Resurfacing for a complete facial rejuvenation experience. 


    Integrating dermal fillers with Botox/Dysport can help manage wrinkles, while adding Laser Skin Resurfacing can address various skin imperfections. 


    The amalgamation of these treatments can provide a more harmonious and comprehensive enhancement of your appearance. 


    During your consultation at Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, we'll explore your objectives and propose the most effective combination of treatments to meet your aesthetic goals.
