Quick facts: Dermal Fillers
| Description | Soft tissue fillers are injected into the skin to enhance soft-tissue volume, diminish wrinkles, and fill in depressed areas such as scars. At our Centre we inject the temporary collagen or hyaluronic acid-based fillers. Longer-lasting injectables with microscopic particles are more risky in that granulomas, placement errors, migration and possible necrosis are more likely. |
| Average cost | $500.00 – $2,000.00 The cost of a treatment will vary depending on your specific needs and the area being treated. |
| Length of Procedure | 15 to 30 minutes depending on the number of areas treated |
| Recovery Time | Zero to 10 days, depending on filler and area treated. |
| Treatment Frequency | On average, two to three times a year depending how quickly the filler is metabolized. In some areas of the face or body the filler will last much longer. |
| Risks | Temporary bruising, swelling, possible infection with temporary fillers. |
| Duration of results | Temporary fillers last from three to six months or more. |
