Dermal Fillers

02 — THE TREATMENT

Dermal Fillers

Modern dermal fillers are sophisticated products engineered for specific areas of the face. The key to exceptional results lies in selecting the right filler for each unique concern and placing it with expert precision.

At our Albuquerque med spa, we carry a comprehensive range of dermal fillers because no single product does everything. Juvederm Voluma provides robust lift for the cheeks and midface. Restylane Contour sculpts natural-looking cheekbone definition. Juvederm Vollure smooths stubborn nasolabial folds. Restylane Defyne works beautifully along the jawline for crisp definition. And Sculptra, a biostimulatory filler, takes a different approach entirely — it stimulates your own collagen production over several months for gradual, natural-looking volume restoration that can last over two years. We also treat under-eye hollows, temples, and hands. During your consultation, we assess your full face and recommend a strategic treatment plan that addresses your concerns while maintaining facial harmony.

The Benefits

  • Restore volume to cheeks, temples, and under-eyes
  • Smooth nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and deep creases
  • Enhance and define the jawline and chin
  • Lift and contour without surgery or general anesthesia
  • Immediate, visible results with most products
  • Long-lasting effects from 6 months to over 2 years
  • FDA-approved products with excellent safety profiles

The Process

I

Consultation

We perform a comprehensive facial analysis, evaluating volume loss, skin quality, bone structure, and symmetry. Together we discuss your goals and develop a customized treatment plan that may address multiple areas for balanced, natural results.

II

Product Selection

Based on your treatment plan, we select the ideal filler or combination of fillers for each area. Different fillers have different properties — some provide lift, others smooth, and others stimulate collagen.

III

Treatment

After applying topical numbing, we use precise injection techniques — often with both needles and cannulas — to place filler exactly where it is needed. Treatment takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on the areas addressed.

IV

Aftercare

We review aftercare instructions, apply ice to minimize swelling, and schedule a two-week follow-up to assess your results. Most patients return to normal activities the same day with only mild swelling or bruising.

FAQ

How long do dermal fillers last?
Longevity depends on the product and treatment area. Lip fillers typically last 6 to 12 months, cheek and midface fillers 12 to 18 months, jawline fillers 12 to 18 months, and Sculptra up to 2 years or more.
Are dermal fillers safe?
Yes. The fillers we use at our Albuquerque med spa are all FDA-approved and have extensive clinical safety data.
What is the difference between Botox and fillers?
Botox relaxes muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles (lines from movement), while dermal fillers add volume to fill in static wrinkles (lines visible at rest) and restore lost facial volume. Many patients benefit from combining both treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
When will I see results?
Results from hyaluronic acid fillers are visible immediately, though there will be some swelling. Final results are best assessed at about 2 weeks.
Can dermal fillers be reversed?
Hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm and Restylane) can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if needed. Sculptra is not reversible but metabolizes naturally over time.
How much do dermal fillers cost?
Dermal filler pricing depends on the type and number of syringes needed, which varies by treatment area and your goals. During your consultation at Diversions Med Spa in Albuquerque, we provide a transparent quote tailored to your customized treatment plan.
