FILLERS
What Is Dermal Filler?
Dermal filler is an injectable hyaluronic acid-based medication that is used to improve volume loss in the face that is common with aging. With time, we experience a loss of volume in the cheeks, chin, lips, temples, and undereyes. By injecting an HA filler, we help our patients restore that lost volume and achieve a more youthful appearance. Hyaluronic acid is a molecule that is naturally made by our bodies, and our HA fillers contain the same molecule mixed with lidocaine. At Reve Medical Aesthetics, we use technology combined with our providers’ education and experience to recommend filler options that will best fit your needs.

Our filler cost starts at $700 and progresses upward depending on the areas of injection, the amount of filler that is needed, and the technique that is required to provide optimal results. To get a better understanding of how much your filler will cost, schedule a consultation and our staff can provide you customized pricing for what your clinical needs are.

HA fillers are temporary and commonly last between 16 and 18 months. The longevity is highly dependent upon individual metabolic rates, so the timeline will vary between people. At Reve Medical Aesthetics, we carry a reputation of fillers that last between 16 and 18 months. We use FDA-approved HA fillers that are purchased directly from the manufacturer to ensure full efficacy and achieve the best possible results.
-
It is common during your initial 2-3 weeks to develop lumps in the injected areas. We will never let our patients leave the office with lumpy filler. However, in the initial recovery stage, swelling is possible. It is highly important that patients do NOT rub or massage the area if a lump develops as this can displace the filler. The lump that is felt will be swelling under the skin that can take up to 3 weeks to resolve.
-
Following any filler injections, it is important to avoid massaging or pressing on the area. The injection sites should be kept clean and free of makeup for 24 hours to avoid infection at the site.
-
Males and females between the ages of 18 and 65+. To receive injections, you must be in generally good health. Women who are pregnant or nursing will not be injected.
What are HA fillers and what are they made of?
HA fillers are soft, gel-like injectables made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in your skin. They instantly add volume, hydrate, and smooth lines. At Reve Medical Aesthetics, we use premium brands like RHA® and Evolysse® for natural-looking lip fillers, cheek fillers, and more!
Which areas can fillers enhance?
HA fillers are incredibly versatile! The most popular filler injections that we do at Reve Medical Aesthetics include:
Lip fillers for fuller, hydrated lips
Cheek fillers to restore youthful contour
Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
Under-eye hollows / tear troughs
Chin & jawline definition
How long do HA fillers last?
Our patients generally enjoy their beautiful and natural-looking results for between 12 and 18 months. Cheek and tear-trough fillers can last up to 2 years! Maintenance is easy and our clients love how refreshed they look even immediately after their injections.
Does it hurt?
Most patients say it’s much more comfortable than expected! We use a very potent numbing gel, ice, and lidocaine-infused fillers to ensure that the treatment is as painless as possible. The treatment takes just 15-45 minutes, and you’ll leave looking better immediately!
What is the downtime?
The downtime for fillers is very minimal. It is normal to experience swelling and bruising for about 1-5 days. Most clients can return to work and social activities the very next day. The typical healing process looks like swelling the next day, and bruising develops over the next day or two.
