Men's Filler Treatment

Injectable fillers, also known as dermal fillers, can be used to plump up lips, smooth wrinkles, and fill tear troughs around the eyes. They can help improve the look of pitted acne scars and give volume to the cheekbones. Some people even opt for injectable fillers for a nonsurgical nose job. Fillers can be made of collagen, calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, polymethyl methacrylate, or fat harvested from your own body. Hyaluronic acid is the most popular FDA-approved filler ingredient, but fillers can also be made of collagen, calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, polymethyl methacrylate, or fat harvested from your own body. What are the benefits and considerations of dermal fillers? benefits: When administered by a competent practitioner, injectable treatments are rapid, painless, and safe. They don't require any downtime because they're non-invasive. Because hyaluronic acid fillers are virtually comparable to what our bodies make, they dissolve more naturally than other components over time. If you don't like the effects of hyaluronic acid fillers, you may quickly reverse them with hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down HA. Because the effects are just temporary, you'll require touch-ups to keep them looking good. If you have side effects, they can last as long as your filler does, but side effects are rare in the hands of experts.

Our OC Beauty Medspa practitioner will first review your face structure with you, as well as the appropriate type of filler for your objectives and any dangers. Once you've chosen a filler, we'll clean the area and, if necessary, administer a topical anesthetic (most fillers contain lidocaine already). We'll use a needle or cannula to slowly inject the filler, then gently massage the region with their fingertips to spread it before continuing with further injections. we will advise you on what to do if you have any discomfort, swelling, or tenderness thereafter (ice packs usually help). Unless you are having extensive treatments, each injection just takes a few moments, and the total cosmetic process takes around 15 to 20 minutes.

There will be very little downtime, but minor bruising and swelling at the injection site are fairly typical after treatment. For the next 24 hours, avoid the sun, heat, exercises, and alcohol; the adverse effects should subside in a few days. To avoid bruising, avoid alcohol, aspirin, some supplements (high-dose vitamin E, ginkgo Biloba, and garlic), and other blood-thinning medicines for a week or two before your visit. You'll notice greater fullness or smoother skin right away or within a few days, but the swelling may take up to two weeks to decrease.

Fillers can last anywhere from six months to more than a year, depending on which one you get, how much your doctor uses, and how quickly your body metabolizes it.    if you have a fast metabolism, you may notice that the filler goes away sooner. On the bright side, after two to three rounds of injections, you will notice it will last longer and longer.

Dermal fillers are generally regarded safe, although they might have adverse effects. Redness at the injection site, allergic response (particularly with collagen), granulomas (hard lumps under the skin), pimples, bruising, or asymmetry are all possible adverse effects. Injecting filler into a blood artery unintentionally might result in significant problems, including tissue death, which is another reason to use an expert injector. here in OC Beauty Medspa our experts always consider every single patient’s anatomy. If you have an infection on your face or at the injection site, don't have an injection since it might spread or cause problems.
