Dermal filler

By strategically placing firmer fillers along the cheekbones, we can lift tissue that has lost support, reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds, and restore the youthful “heart-shaped” contour that defines a refreshed face. This approach treats the root cause of aging, structural volume loss, rather than simply filling individual lines.

We also use fillers to sculpt and define the jawline, augment the chin for improved facial balance, and fill hollowed temples that can create a gaunt appearance. For hands that reveal age through visible veins and tendons, specialized fillers restore a smoother, more youthful dorsal surface. Every treatment at our Fishkill practice begins with a full facial assessment so we can identify the areas where strategic volume placement will deliver the most impactful, harmonious results.

The Juvederm collection includes Voluma XC for deep cheek augmentation, Vollure XC for moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds, and Ultra XC for lips and perioral lines. Restylane offers Lyft for cheeks and hands, Contour for chin and jawline definition, Defyne for natural-looking fold correction, and Refyne for subtle smoothing of laugh lines.

We are also proud to offer the RHA collection, Resilient Hyaluronic Acid fillers specifically engineered to move with your facial expressions. RHA fillers are cross-linked using a gentle process that preserves the natural structure of hyaluronic acid, resulting in a filler that adapts to dynamic facial movement. This makes RHA an exceptional choice for areas like the nasolabial folds and marionette lines, where flexibility matters most. Your injector will guide you to the ideal product, or combination of products, during your consultation.

After a detailed consultation and facial mapping, we cleanse the skin and may apply a topical numbing cream for comfort, though most of our fillers contain built-in lidocaine to minimize sensation during injection. Using fine needles or blunt-tip cannulas (which reduce bruising), your injector places the product at precise depths to achieve the desired lift, volume, or smoothing.

Results are visible immediately, though mild swelling over the first 24 to 48 hours means the final outcome settles in at about two weeks. Depending on the product and treatment area, results last anywhere from six months to two years. Lip fillers typically last six to twelve months, cheek fillers up to two years, and jawline or chin fillers around twelve to eighteen months. We recommend a follow-up appointment two weeks after your treatment to assess results and make any refinements.
