Facial fillers correct the loss of skin tone, facial volume and elasticity.

As we age a downward descent and atrophy of facial fat, soft tissue and bone occurs. This facial “deflation” appears as a slowly progressive sagging and hollowing around the eyelids and cheeks. Shadows and depressions appear. There is a loss of facial balance and harmony. Skin loses its tone and elasticity. Facial bones, including the teeth, function as structural support for the overlying soft tissues, shift and gum recession occurs. We begin to see the overlying skin sag particularly around the mouth, jawline, and cheeks. Lips may look thin and deflated. Temples may appear hollow. Vertical lines start to appear and the folds starting at the corners of your nose and descending around the outside border of your lips become deeper. The good news is that these wrinkles and age-related volume changes can now be corrected by plumping up these depressions from below the skin with dermal facial fillers.

Facial Filler Procedure

Before injecting a dermal filler, Dr. Kopelman makes an assessment of the overall structures of the entire face and neck including the skin, underlying soft tissue and bone structure. If the patient has make-up they are asked to remove it before Dr. Kopelman takes two and three dimensional facial photographs. This allows him to accurately evaluate your facial volume without masking the areas of concern.

Once he quantitates the amount of filler that will be necessary to achieve a natural appearance he will select the ideal filler for particular areas of the face that needs additional volume. Each product has very specific characteristics that match specific anatomic areas. Selecting the right product and determining the right amount is only the first step to achieving great results. Dr. Kopelman has a great eye for detail, meticulous techniques and years of experience to achieve beautiful results. You will look refreshed not bloated or overdone.

Facial augmentation with facial fillers is a straight-forward procedure. During the session, Dr. Kopelman will make sure all make-up is removed and the skin will be sterilized with alcohol. Next topical lidocaine cream is applied to numb the area. After fifteen minutes a small needle penetrates the skin followed by the passage of a blunt needle called a cannula. Little or no discomfort will you experience. These procedures can be performed during a lunch break with no downtime. Dr. Kopelman utilizes special techniques to minimize bruising and swelling. Swelling is expected especially if cheek and lip augmentation is performed as the water particles of the particles of the filler are replaced by the natural collagen of your face. In most cases the swelling usually resolves within 48 hours but can last up to one week.
