At It Aesthetix, we use Hyaluronic Acid in our fillers, which occurs naturally in our bodies and helps keep our skin hydrated and full, giving a more youthful appearance.

 

Before your procedure, you may be asked to attend a short consultation to discuss your goals and desired outcomes of the treatment. This will help us find the best treatment solution for you. We advise that you avoid blood thinners, aspirins, and alcohol for at least 24 hours before your treatment to prevent any excess bruising.

 

Dermal filler injections are a quick and relatively painless process. Most appointments last 30-45 minutes depending on the number of treatments being performed. After evaluating your skin and discussing your desired results, your technician will use a small needle to place the filler gel in targeted areas under the skin. Some facial fillers are infused with lidocaine to reduce any discomfort during the injection, but topical numbing creams are available as well.

 

Once the treatment is finished and you are happy with your results, you are free to continue on with your day– no recovery time is required. Minor bruising and swelling can be expected after this procedure but will reduce throughout the day.
