Cosmetic procedures, including facial rejuvenation, are gaining popularity in the mainstream. Dermal fillers are an especially popular way to address aesthetic concerns and can be used to treat individual issues, or in combination to improve the appearance of the entire face. At Country Hills Eye Care, we offer patients in Ogden, UT, facial rejuvenation using JUVÉDERM® fillers, in addition to our comprehensive vision consultation and eye care, and range of cosmetic treatments.
1) Who Gets Facial Rejuvenation?
We offer this treatment to patients over 21 years of age who want to see a dramatic improvement in facial appearance, including the reduction of wrinkles, fine lines, and scars, and an enhancement of both the lips and facial contours.
2) Procedure
The problem areas will be identified and highlighted during the consultation, and the appropriate fillers will be chosen. Once treatment is mapped out, the procedure goes like this:
- The topical numbing ointment is applied to target areas
- A small needle is used to inject the filler into pinpointed locations
- Patients will experience a mild and temporary burning or stinging sensation as the filler is injected.
3) Types of Fillers Used
Available fillers include the following:
- Collagen Based Fillers (i.e., Zyplast and Cosmoderm)
- Hyaluronic Acid-Based Fillers (i.e., Restylane® and Juvederm™)
- Calcium Hydroxylapatite Fillers (i.e., Radiesse®)
Your doctor will select the appropriate filler for your case.
4) Recovery Time
The recovery time for dermal fillers is short, you should expect all discomfort to be gone within 24 hours. The filler itself may take about 2 weeks to “settle” into your face, revealing its full effect.
5) How Long Does it Last
Depending on the filler, your results can last between 6 weeks and 5 years. Fillers like Juvederm are approved to last for 1 year.
