A typical appointment lasts between 30 to 45 minutes. The procedure itself lasts 20 minutes on average, but your medical provider will want to spend time discussing your desired outcomes, as well as what you should expect in the days following treatment.

Filler is an injectable treatment. You will experience some minor, brief discomfort at the moment of injection. Timeless ensures comfort at every step by employing specialized techniques before, during and after your treatment.
Yes, when administered by experienced medical professionals who have a clear understanding of your medical history. We choose to use hyaluronic acid fillers because of their low side effect profile, and while we expect that you will love your results, patients can be reassured knowing that, once injected, the filler can be dissolved as desired via a simple injection.
In just minutes, a medical professional uses a tiny needle to inject hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body. They place it in areas of volume loss, use it to lift sagging skin, and fill in lines and wrinkles. Once the filler is injected, patients may be able to detect lumps and bumps under the skin in the treatment area. This is perfectly normal and typically not visible on the surface of the skin. Over the next several weeks, the hyaluronic acid molecules in the filler will bond with the surrounding tissue resulting in a smoother feel.
In general, filler is an instant gratification treatment. When you leave the office you will see about 80% improvement, and over the course of 2-4 weeks the filler will bond to the tissue around it and reveal the final result.
Fillers are FDA-approved to last between 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type and area of injection. There is an enzyme in our body that naturally breaks down the hyaluronic acid molecules in filler over time, which is why it doesn’t last forever.
With any injectable, there is a chance that you may experience minor swelling and bruising for up to two weeks. This is not typically something that will require you to take time off work or change your lifestyle, but you may want to strategically schedule the appointment if you have any major upcoming event
Yes! Filler is like a jump start for collagen production. With continued use, your skin’s own collagen production will increase.
Treatments are highly customized based on area, concern and person. For the most accurate quote we recommend sitting down with one of our medical professionals to talk about your desired outcome. Pricing is done per syringe, and fillers for different applications have varying prices and longevity. The cost of fillers range between $450- $1,000 per syringe, and typically, multiple syringes are used to achieve best results.
Yes, it is. Botox is used to treat expression lines and wrinkles resulting from muscular contractions. Fillers (such as Juvederm® Voluma, Juvederm® Ultra XC, RHA®, Belotero Balance®, Restylane® Lyft) restore volume to deeper wrinkles and areas where there has been a loss of collagen. We determine the type of filler to use depending on the area we are filling
Filler is a great option for most. If you have allergies to lidocaine, are taking blood thinners or have any other health conditions, we recommend discussing this with our medical team at the time of your consultation.
The following medical-grade products will help to prolong, encourage, and promote the life of your treatments.
SkinMedica® HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator: This topical, hyaluronic acid product works in the same way as a dermal filler, encouraging your body’s natural collagen to rebuild itself. HA5 contains five forms of hyaluronic acid, a water-loving protein that helps to maintain the skin’s moisture, elasticity and resilience. HA5 is different from a moisturizer because it penetrates deeper into the epidermis rather than sitting on the top of the skin. This enhances your filler results.
SkinMedica Rejuvenative Moisturizer: For an added boost, this lightweight serum is shown to enhance the benefits of a daily moisturizer. Hydrating Complex contains Sodium Hyaluronate, a derivative of hyaluronic acid which can retain up to 40 times its weight in water, to help replenish the skin’s moisture reservoir and further plump the skin.
SkinMedica Instant Bright Eye Cream: This specialty cream re-energizes and rejuvenates the delicate eye area to help eyes look brighter and more youthful. It instantly improves the eyes’ appearance, including dark circles, sagging, puffiness, and lines. Over time, Instant Bright Eye Cream works to continue reducing the visible signs of aging and fatigue.
Obagi Elastiderm Eye Complete Complex Serum: This serum helps to replenish elasticity and support collagen for tighter, smoother-looking skin. It also helps stimulate the production of healthy skin cells and contains caffeine to improve the appearance of under-eye puffiness. Available in office.
SkinMedica HA5 Smooth & Plump Lip System: After plumping the lips with Juvéderm Volbella or RHA fillers, continue to treat the delicate skin topically and on a daily basis. This two-step system smooths fine lines around the lips while further plumping their appearance, enhancing definition and your bringing out your lips’ natural rosiness.

Fillers like Juvederm® Voluma® , RHA®, Restylane® and Belotero® are made of hyaluronic acid(HA). Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies that acts as a nutrient to keep our skin moist, smooth, and elastic. Our bodies are constantly losing and replacing this substance throughout the day, though as we age, we lose it at the same continuous rate, and no longer produce enough to keep up with the loss. Injectable fillers not only plump up, hydrate and fill where volume has been lost, but also encourages the body’s own natural collagen production to increase.
