Getting filler is a little uncomfortable, but at VFHC Aesthetic, we use the safest techniques which also ensure minimal pain.

The number of syringes of filler administered during each treatment will depend on your age and what you are trying to accomplish. One or two syringes are usually all that’s needed to treat a single area, but some dermal filler patients may require 3 or 4.

  • 2 Days Prior to Injections. Avoid topical products such as Tretinoin (Retin-A), Retinol, Retinoids, Glycolic Acid, or any “anti-aging” products. Avoid waxing, bleaching, tweezing or using hair removal cream on the area.

Treatments take some time to integrate into your tissues, and it’s normal for your dermal filler to take up to two weeks to fully settle into your face. A single dermal filler treatment can typically last 6 to 12 months, and in some cases, even longer.
