Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers in Porter Ranch, CA
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected under the skin to replenish lost volume, smooth lines, soften creases, or enhance facial contours. At On The Glow in Porter Ranch, we offer a range of facial fillers, including Restylane, Juvéderm, and Belotero, each designed to target specific areas and concerns. These fillers are composed of substances that mimic naturally occurring compounds in the body, such as hyaluronic acid, which provide immediate volume and stimulate collagen production over time. Facial fillers are versatile in their application, effectively treating areas like the cheeks, chin, jawline, lips, and nasolabial folds. They are suitable for individuals seeking a non-surgical option to rejuvenate their facial appearance.
Results from dermal filler treatments at On The Glow are visible almost immediately after the procedure, with the full effect appearing once swelling has subsided. Depending on the product used and the individual’s skin type, metabolism, and lifestyle, results can last anywhere from 6 months to over a year. Dermal fillers are a great choice for those looking to counteract the signs of aging or enhance facial features with minimal downtime. If you’re considering dermal fillers and want to see if they’re right for you, schedule an appointment online at On The Glow and take the first step towards a refreshed and youthful appearance!
