How Fillers Enhance Your Natural Features
/
Most people who have never tried dermal fillers express reservations about looking “overdone” or “weird” or “obvious.” Although there are some women (and men) who actually prefer a more dramatic change and don’t mind who can tell they’ve had work done, the majority of our clients at Siti Med Spa are looking for more subtle, natural-looking results. While dermal filler treatment is fairly simple, it does require precision, artistry, and a thorough knowledge of facial anatomy in order to achieve beautiful, subtle, and natural-looking results. If you want to restore your youthful appearance in a way that enhances your natural features rather than changing them or covering them up, here’s what you need to know.
Treatment areas for dermal fillers
Dermal fillers can be used to treat just about any area of the face where wrinkles, folds, or age-related volume loss develop. Dermal fillers can also be used to add volume to facial features, such as cheeks or lips for more appealing contours, or to hands for a more youthful appearance. Common areas for dermal filler treatment include:
Lips, for a smoother, plumper, sexier pout
Cheeks, for added volume and more youthful contours
Nasolabial folds, to smooth out deep lines
Jowls and chin, to provide lift and enhance contours
Under eyes, for a brighter, more rested appearance
Hands, for restored volume
At Siti Med Spa, we offer fillers from three different product lines (Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse), providing our clients with a range of formulas for correcting a variety of cosmetic issues. Our dermal filler treatments are highly customized, taking into account the scope of correction needed, desired results, facial structure, and other factors particular to the individual.
How to ensure that facial fillers will enhance rather than change your natural features
When it comes to dermal filler treatment, It’s smart to be cautious. We’ve all seen some unfortunate, distorted results on celebrities and maybe even people we know. In most cases, those botched jobs are the result of either inexperienced or unscrupulous practitioners who went too far, used too much formula, used the wrong formula, didn’t have an eye for natural beauty, or worse—just didn’t care enough to take the time to get it right. Fortunately, the internet makes it easy to do your research ahead of time so you can avoid those types of practitioners. Here are a couple of other things you can do to increase your chances of getting beautiful, natural-looking results with dermal fillers.
Choose your practitioner wisely - Ask for recommendations from people you know. Check certifications. Read reviews. Look at before-and-after pictures. Set up a consultation. Ask questions. Trust your gut.
Get clarity about the specific causes of your concerns - The more you know about what’s causing your cosmetic issues, the better equipped you are to understand your treatment. If your practitioner expresses impatience with your questions, partner up with a different specialist.
Go slow - It’s best to start with too little formula than it is to start with too much. You can always add more if the results are too subtle, but you can’t take it away if you overdo it.
And finally, although it may sound like we’re contradicting ourselves a little bit, it's important to trust your practitioner. Once you find someone you trust enough to commit to treatment, then you also need to trust when they tell you when enough is enough. If your practitioner is highly trained, skilled, and experienced, they’ll have a good eye for how to create a natural appearance, and what will cross the line. Remember, a reputable cosmetic practitioner will be committed to helping you look and feel your absolute best. And if you doubt this in any way, find another injector.
