Aging affects everyone in a unique way, though there are some hallmark signs of facial aging that most of us will develop at some point in our lives. From fine lines and wrinkles to deep folds and lost volume, the side effects of aging can be frustrating and discouraging — often leaving people looking and feeling older than they actually are. Fortunately, modern medicine and aesthetics offer more options than ever for restoring a younger look, and board-certified dermatologists Dr. Simona Bartos and Dr. Gregory Bartos of Imperial Dermatology are proud to provide a comprehensive suite of anti-aging solutions for patients in Hollywood, FL.
Among the most popular treatments for smoothing out wrinkles and restoring lost volume are injectable dermal fillers such as Sculptra, Restylane, Juvederm and Radiesse.

What do fillers do?
Injectable dermal fillers — often referred to simply as fillers — are products used to make a variety of aesthetic enhancements to the face and body. Generally speaking, fillers help to add instant volume and increase collagen production to reshape and recontour features, smooth out lines and wrinkles, and create better balance and harmony overall. Some of the specific ways fillers can improve your look include:
- Plump up hollow cheeks
- Fill circles under the eyes
- Enhance lip volume
- Smooth out deep wrinkles and lines, like nasolabial folds
- Correct asymmetry, achieve facial balance
- Redefine jawline
- Chin enhancement
- Buttock enhancement
- Cellulite treatment
- Crepey skin rejuviantion
How long do fillers take to start working?
Fillers can typically be injected within minutes, and patients can enjoy their newly enhanced look almost immediately. However, filler that are biostimulatory such as Sculptra and Radiesse have continued improvement at 3-6 months. It is important to keep in mind that some minor bruising, swelling, and firmness after getting fillers are expected, but these side effects should dissipate within a few days or weeks. After this, the softer, natural-looking final results of fillers will be visible.
