Dermal Fillers

Introduction

Introduction to Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are gel-like injectables that integrate with the natural skin tissue to resolve signs of aging and leave you looking more energized and rejuvenated. Non-surgical and non-invasive, fillers are a staple of medspas worldwide, thanks to their ability to reverse the signs of aging and boost confidence. At Dr. Buffalo Buffalo MedSpa & Surgery in Buffalo, NY, we provide access to today’s most innovative dermal fillers, including Restylane, Versa, Revanesse, Sculptra, Radiesse, and more!

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gel-like substances administered beneath the skin. They work by adding volume beneath the skin, either by filling spaces, stimulating collagen production, or both. The specific mechanism depends on the type of filler used, but the overarching goal of this skin treatment in Buffalo is to stimulate collagen production in order to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, or enhance facial features.

Common types of dermal fillers in Buffalo include:

  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers

Examples include Revanesse®, Restylane®, and Versa®. These are the most popular, offering reversible and natural-looking results.

  • Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers – Radiesse® stimulates collagen production for longer-lasting results.
  • Poly-L-Lactic Acid Fillers – Sculptra® gradually rebuilds collagen for natural volume over time.
  • Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Fillers – Bellafill® provides a semi-permanent solution for deeper wrinkles or acne scars.

Who Are the Best Candidates for Dermal Fillers?

An ideal candidate for dermal fillers is someone who:

  • Desires natural-looking, subtle enhancements
  • Is in good physical and emotional health
  • Has concerns that fillers can effectively address (e.g., volume loss, static wrinkles)
  • Understands the potential risks, benefits, and temporary nature of the treatment

Our team in Buffalo, NY, will conduct a thorough consultation to determine whether dermal fillers are the best and safest option for achieving your aesthetic goals.

To get started with customized dermal filler injections in Buffalo, New York, you will meet with Dr. Armen Kirakosyan (“Dr. Buffalo”) for a private consultation and skin assessment. During this first meeting, the doctor and his team will listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and ensure you understand the risks, costs, and recovery time for the treatment. The next step is for us to book your procedure date and provide you with individualized preparation instructions.

What to Expect on the Day of a Dermal Filler Treatment

On the day of your appointment, our friendly team will greet you, place you in a comfortable treatment room, and answer any last-minute questions you might have. We will then cleanse and numb your skin with a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort and relaxation during your session. First, we will mark your injection points according to your unique treatment plan to optimize precision. Next, we will administer your chosen dermal fillers to restore youthful volume, balance, and symmetry artfully. Sessions typically take 30 minutes or less to complete, and patients can resume their normal schedules immediately afterward

Dermal Fillers Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Dermal Fillers Care

One of the reasons our patients in Buffalo love dermal filler sessions is that they come with no downtime or recovery. You will be able to return to work, school, or leisure time immediately. Minor swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites are common side effects, but these symptoms can be well-controlled with over-the-counter pain medications and an ice pack.

For the first one to two days, take care to avoid touching, massaging, or rubbing your skin, as this can cause unintended filler migration. You should also steer clear of strenuous exercise for several days after your appointment. For the first 24 to 48 hours, avoid exposure to intense heat, including hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, and tanning beds. Finally, you should postpone drinking alcohol for 24 hours, as drinking can increase the risk of swelling and bruising.
