Dermal Filler in Lexington, MA
Restore balance. Refine proportion.
Over time, changes in facial fat, collagen, bone, and soft tissue can alter facial shape and support. Dermal filler can be used thoughtfully to restore structure, soften areas of volume loss, and enhance facial balance while preserving what makes you look like you.
Treatment is individualized based on facial anatomy, proportion, movement, and your goals. The focus is not on adding volume for the sake of volume, but on making subtle, strategic adjustments that create a more balanced and refreshed appearance.
Hyaluronic acid fillers may be used in areas such as the lips, cheeks, chin, perioral area, and other areas where added support or contour can improve overall facial harmony. Product selection and placement are chosen carefully based on the treatment area and desired result.
At Stellar Medical Aesthetics, filler treatments are approached conservatively and with a long-term perspective. The goal is refined, natural-looking results that integrate with the rest of the face rather than drawing attention to the treatment itself.

Dermal Filler FAQs
-
JUVÉDERM®, Restylane, and RHA are hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers used to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They are commonly used to treat areas such as the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and under-eye hollows, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
-
Both JUVÉDERM® and Restylane work by injecting hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that retains moisture and adds volume. The fillers attract water to the treated area, plumping up the skin, smoothing out lines and wrinkles, and adding definition to facial features. The results are immediate and can last from 6 to 18 months, depending on the specific product and treatment area.
-
While JUVÉDERM®, Restylane, and RHA are all hyaluronic acid fillers, they differ in their formulations and consistency. The choice between the three depends on the treatment area, individual skin quality, and desired results, which your provider can help determine.
-
The treatment involves a series of small injections using a fine needle or microcannula. The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the areas treated. Most fillers contain lidocaine to minimize discomfort, but a topical numbing cream can also be applied. After the treatment, you may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few days. You can resume normal activities immediately, but it is advised to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun or heat exposure for 24-48 hours.

The longevity of JUVÉDERM®, Restylane, and RHA results varies depending on the specific product used and the treatment area. Generally, results can last from 6 to 18 months. Follow-up treatments are recommended to maintain the desired appearance, and your provider will help create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and goals. Given that the aging process is ongoing, regular touch-ups can help sustain a youthful and refreshed look.
