What It Is:
Dermal fillers are smooth, gel-like injectables primarily made of Hyaluronic Acid (HA)—a naturally occurring, hydrating substance in your skin. They are placed beneath the skin’s surface to restore lost volume, smooth out deep static lines, and enhance facial contours.
Because every face ages differently, Commonwealth Dermatology offers a premium portfolio of the industry’s top filler collections to achieve your specific aesthetic goals:
- Juvéderm® Collection: One of the most trusted and popular HA fillers worldwide. Juvéderm is known for its smooth, gel-like consistency, making it incredible for plumping lips, restoring youthful volume to the cheeks, and smoothing deep facial folds.
- RHA® Collection: Known as the “designer filler,” RHA is uniquely formulated to adapt to your facial movements. It is designed to be resilient and stretchy, meaning it looks incredibly natural both when your face is at rest and when you are talking, smiling, or laughing.
- Restylane® Collection: A highly versatile family of HA fillers known for its ability to stay in place and provide precise contouring. Restylane is fantastic for delicate areas like the under-eyes (tear troughs), defining the jawline and chin, and creating beautifully shaped lips.

Who This Treatment Is Good For:
Fillers are perfect for individuals experiencing volume loss due to aging, or those who simply want to enhance their natural facial features. If you are looking to smooth “static wrinkles” (lines that are visible even when your face is at rest), correct asymmetry, or add contour and hydration, dermal fillers are an excellent, non-surgical solution.
What to Expect:
Treatments usually take 30 to 45 minutes depending on the areas being treated. The best part? Results are visible immediately! You may experience some mild swelling or bruising, which generally subsides within a few days. Depending on the specific type of filler used, how much your face moves in that area, and your metabolism, results can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months or more.
