Facial Fillers
Facial Fillers
As we age, our faces can lean out. Our cheeks may sink while our chins double in size. This results in an aged, outward appearance that may not match the way we feel on the inside. Thankfully, for treating gaunt cheeks and double chins, there are facial fillers from Paragould Plastic Surgery in Paragould, AR.
Facial fillers—such as Juvederm and Kybella—can add volume to cheeks and remove volume from chins. With only a simple injection at the target site, facial fillers can produce stunning results that last between one year and the rest of your life. To make lasting changes to your most prominent feature, contact Paragould Plastic Surgery about facial fillers today.
Who’s eligible?
If you’re in good average health, a non-smoker, and have realistic goals in mind for the result you’d like, you’re a good candidate for facial fillers. Juvederm can resurrect sunken facial features for a plumper, more youthful look, while Kybella eliminates stubborn fatty deposits along the chin and jawline. If either of these conditions apply to you, then facial fillers may provide the ideal solution.
The benefits of facial fillers depend on the type and purpose of the fillers themselves. Juvederm relies on injections of hyaluronic acid—a naturally occurring substance within the body—to add volume to your cheeks for upwards of a year. Kybella, meanwhile, utilizes another natural substance—deoxycholic acid—to permanently destroy excess fat along the chin and jawline. Both fillers produce remarkable results with numerous benefits, including:

Facial Fillers FAQ
Both facial fillers are considered entirely safe for cosmetic usages. Both Juvederm and Kybella may result in redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site—all of which dissipate rapidly after the procedure. Facial fillers are one of the most popular cosmetic treatments on the market today, thanks to their efficacy and safety.
Kybella uses a naturally occurring digestive acid to destroy fat cells along the chin and jawline. These fat cells are dead and processed through and out of the body through natural processes over time. Kybella generally prevents fat from being stored in the same place again, though the fat may return in other areas such as the neck.
As with most injections, patients generally describe a slight pinch at the injection site. Facial filler appointments are quick, easy, and over in a flash, making them usually discomfort-free for most patients. Any resulting redness, swelling, and bruising can be treated with medication recommended by your physician or nurse practitioner.
