Whether addressing deep lines or subtle volume loss, HA fillers provide versatile and natural-looking results. Metropolis Dermatology in San Jose offers personalized HA filler treatments to meet your unique aesthetic goals.
What Are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?
Hyaluronic acid fillers are injectable treatments composed of a gel-like substance that mimics the natural hyaluronic acid in your body. This compound helps retain moisture, leading to increased hydration, smoothness, and plumpness in the skin. When injected, these fillers instantly volumize the treated areas, smoothing out wrinkles and enhancing contours.
Common Treatment Areas
- Cheeks. Add volume to hollow cheeks and enhance contour.
- Lips. Achieve fuller, more defined lips.
- Nasolabial Folds. Reduce the deep lines that run from the nose to the mouth.
- Marionette Lines. Soften lines that extend from the mouth to the chin.
- Jawline. Define the jawline for a sculpted appearance.

What to Expect During Treatment
HA filler treatments are quick, typically lasting 20-30 minutes. After applying a numbing cream, the filler is injected into targeted areas using fine needles. You may experience some mild swelling or bruising post-treatment, but these effects usually resolve within a few days.
FAQs
How Long Do Results Last?
Results from HA fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to over a year, depending on the type of filler and the area treated. For long-lasting effects, regular touch-ups are recommended as the filler gradually dissolves over time as well as:
- Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for at least 24 hours.
- Refrain from strenuous activities and direct sun exposure for a few days.
Who Are the Ideal Candidates?
HA fillers are suitable for anyone seeking to enhance facial volume, smooth wrinkles, or achieve a more youthful appearance without surgery. Ideal candidates are those looking for natural, subtle enhancements with minimal downtime.
