Restore Youthful Fullness: Dermal Fillers for Arlington Heights at Schaumburg Dermatology

If you’re an Arlington Heights resident seeking a solution to refresh your appearance by restoring youthful volume to your skin, dermal fillers at Schaumburg Dermatology may be the ideal choice. This popular cosmetic procedure delivers natural-looking results to areas that have lost fullness over time.

Our preferred dermal fillers come from the trusted Juvederm and Restylane product families. These advanced fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA)-based injectable gels specifically designed to improve the appearance of moderate to severe facial folds and wrinkles, helping to restore more youthful contours to your face. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule within your skin that attracts and retains water, contributing to the plumpness and hydration of young skin. As we age and are exposed to UV rays from the sun, our body’s HA production decreases, causing the skin to lose structure and volume, resulting in the formation of deep folds and wrinkles. Juvederm and Restylane dermal fillers effectively diminish the appearance of these lines by replenishing the HA in your skin.

Your Personalized Pre-Treatment Consultation

Before proceeding with any treatment, it’s essential to have a thorough assessment by one of our skilled Cosmetic Providers to determine if dermal fillers are the right solution for your specific needs and goals. During your personal Cosmetic Consultation, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of how dermal fillers work and what to expect both during and after your treatment. In addition to this assessment, you will receive a customized treatment plan and a tailored skincare regimen designed to complement your skin type and desired outcomes.

Targeted Treatment Areas for Facial Rejuvenation

• Cheeks: Restore lost volume to create a natural “lift” and enhance definition.
• Nasolabial Folds: Smooth the appearance of laugh lines or smile lines, the folds running from the nose to the corners of the mouth.
• Marionette Lines: Soften the lines that appear around the mouth and chin, extending from the corners of the mouth downwards.
• Lips: Enhance lip shape and create a more voluminous pout.
• Eye Troughs: Address sunken-in under-eye areas that can appear dark due to shadowing, restoring a brighter, more rested look.

What to Expect During the Dermal Filler Procedure

At Schaumburg Dermatology, conveniently located for Arlington Heights residents, your dermal filler treatment will be provided in a relaxed and comfortable setting. Here’s a step-by-step overview of the procedure:

1. Prep: Your Provider will discuss the treatment process, ensuring you understand what to expect, and will explain the precise injection sites planned to achieve your desired results.
2. Cleaning and Numbing: The designated treatment areas will be thoroughly cleansed with an antibacterial solution. While the Juvederm and Restylane fillers we use contain Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, a topical numbing cream will also be applied prior to the injections for enhanced comfort. If you have any known allergies to Lidocaine, please inform us when scheduling your appointment. Lidocaine-free dermal fillers can be specially ordered for you.
3. Injections: The Provider will then carefully and strategically inject the dermal filler into the appropriate areas, a process that typically takes only a few minutes in total.
4. Afterward: Following the injections, your Provider will gently cleanse your skin and provide you with an ice pack to help minimize any minor discomfort you may experience. You are also welcome to relax in our comfortable recovery area after your treatment. It’s common to experience mild to moderate swelling and/or bruising, which can last for several days, so we recommend scheduling your treatment at least two weeks before any significant events.
5. Follow-Up: A complimentary follow-up appointment is required approximately two weeks after your dermal filler injection. During this visit, photos will be taken of the treated areas to assess the outcome. This appointment is crucial for evaluating the results and determining if any additional product is needed to further enhance your appearance. While there is no charge for the Provider’s time during this follow-up visit, any touch-up treatments recommended will involve an additional charge for the product used.
