Dermal and lip filler treatments in Katy, TX

What Are Dermal Fillers?

An excellent non-surgical treatment option, dermal fillers are a secret weapon for looking your very best! The most common type of dermal fillers used in the United States are hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, which can typically last for 6–9 months. HA fillers come with different levels of stiffness and elasticity to treat different areas of the face. There are other more long-term fillers, such as Radiesse, which lasts around 12–18 months, and Sculptra®, which may last up to 2 years.

What Are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?

Smooth & Restore Volume

The most common use for facial fillers is to restore volume and combat signs of aging. The filler of choice is injected under the skin and can smooth out lines, wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and even acne scars with products such as SkinVive™. It can treat hollow areas like the temples or under-eyes, restoring plump fullness to areas that have lost youthful fat tissue over time.

Reshape Facial Contours

Fillers can also be used as replacements for procedures like cheek or chin implants, reshaping the facial contours quickly and easily. They can be used to create defined, shapely cheeks, a strong jawline, fuller lips, or even a brand new nose. The result is an enhanced facial profile and a refreshed, more attractive look without surgery.

How Can Fillers Enhance My Appearance?

Under Eyes

Under-eye hollows, or tear troughs, are a common aesthetic complaint and can be attributed to aging, genetics, or lifestyle factors. This condition can cause you to look older or more tired than you are. Under-eye fillers are an excellent solution to sunken eyes, brightening the skin, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, and restoring volume. Results are immediate, and you'll leave your appointment with eyes that are bright and refreshed.

Cheeks

High cheekbones and full, plump cheeks are often a feature of the most attractive faces. However, due to facial genetics or aging, many find themselves with a facial contour that is flat or lacking in dimension. Age-related volume loss and genetically undefined cheeks can drag down your entire appearance. Cheek fillers create a beautiful lift, smooth the skin, and sculpt your profile for a face that is youthful, balanced, and vibrant.

Nasolabial Folds

Also known as laugh lines, nasolabial folds stretch from your nose to the corners of your mouth. Everyone has these demarcation lines to some degree, but for some, they are more pronounced. They also tend to get more deeply etched with age and may be apparent even when you are not smiling or laughing. Dermal fillers soften the appearance of nasolabial folds, increase collagen in the skin, and lift the area around the mouth. The result is a smooth, fresh-faced aesthetic.

Designer Lip Filler

The lips are a very special part of a person's identity, persona, and overall aesthetic. Lips also come in different shapes and sizes. At Designer Plastic Surgery, we specialize in giving patients the lips that they have always wanted to complement their beautiful selves. Whether you want a subtle enhancement in shape and volume or to make a statement, we're here to thoughtfully and carefully curate the lips that you've always dreamed of!

Liquid Rhinoplasty

For those who aren't ready for nose surgery or want to explore non-surgical options, a liquid rhinoplasty might be the perfect solution. Dermal fillers can be used to reshape the nose, balance proportions, correct the appearance of nasal humps or a crooked nose bridge, and much more. Discover if a liquid rhinoplasty can help you achieve the facial harmony you desire by scheduling a consultation with us today. Many patients can walk out of our office with their ideal nose in minutes.

Designer Jawline

If you struggle with sagging skin or a lower face that looks deflated, jawline contouring with fillers may be for you. Dermal fillers can restructure the lower face, creating a defined jawline and providing a balanced and attractive overall appearance for men and women. These fillers have the added benefit of treating jowling and wrinkles in this area.

Types of Dermal Fillers

There are a few types of dermal filler formulations available, each featuring a key ingredient or compound with different applications and benefits.

Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is an ingredient that naturally occurs in the human body. HA fillers are the most popular types of fillers. Brand names include: JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®.

Biostimulatory Injectables

Like HA fillers, biostimulants increase volume. However, their main focus is to stimulate collagen. This means that biostimulatory injectables produce longer-term plumping and smoothing. Because they have thicker formulations, they are not suitable for areas that call for a softer touch, like the lips and under-eyes. They perform well in the temples, mid-face, nasolabial folds, depressed acne scars, and even elsewhere in the body, such as knees or hands.

Calcium Hydroxylapatite Fillers

This mineral-like compound, found naturally in human bones, is known for its lower likelihood of migration and natural-looking results that last up to 12–18 months. Brand names include: RADIESSE®.

Polylactic Acid Fillers

This synthetic dermal filler, previously used as suture material, is often used to gradually stimulate collagen production. Sculptra® can last up to 2 years. Brand names include: Sculptra®.

Dermal & Lip Filler FAQs

How much does lip filler or dermal filler cost in Katy?

Filler pricing depends on the product and how many syringes your treatment needs, so we give you a price after your consultation. Our Signature Filler Packages bundle common treatment areas, and the Designer Injector Session includes one syringe of filler and one vial of neurotoxin for one flat fee. Payment plans are available through Cherry.

How long do dermal fillers last?

It depends on the product. Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers typically last 6 to 9 months. RADIESSE® lasts around 12 to 18 months, and Sculptra® may last up to 2 years.

Is there downtime after filler?

Fillers are generally quick appointments with little to no downtime, and in many cases patients return to their daily activities right after treatment. Some bruising or swelling is possible, especially in the lips. Your injector will give you aftercare instructions before you leave.

Can under eye filler help with hollows and dark circles?

Under-eye hollows, or tear troughs, can make you look older or more tired than you are. Under eye filler restores volume and smooths fine lines in the area, and results are immediate. Our Non-surgical Eye Lift Package pairs under eye filler with neurotoxin, Pixel8 RF Microneedling and Erbium or CO2 skin resurfacing.

What are hyaluronic acid fillers?

Hyaluronic acid (HA) occurs naturally in the human body, and HA fillers are the most popular type of dermal filler. They come in different levels of stiffness and elasticity to treat different areas, from the lips and under-eyes to wrinkles and folds. Brand names include JUVÉDERM® and Restylane®.

What is the difference between wrinkle fillers and Botox?

Neurotoxins like BOTOX® Cosmetic relax the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow's feet. Wrinkle fillers add volume under the skin to smooth lines and folds, such as nasolabial folds, and to restore lost fullness. Many patients combine both, and the Designer Injector Session includes one of each.
