Dermal Fillers

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels that restore volume, smooth lines, and improve facial contours. Most are formulated with hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body. Results are visible immediately, with no surgery or significant downtime required.

Common treatment areas include the lips, cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, chin, jawline, and under-eye hollows.

Am I a Candidate?

Most healthy adults wanting to address volume loss or specific facial concerns without surgery are ideal candidates for dermal filler treatment in Kirkland.

Good candidates generally:

• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic expectations
• Want to improve facial balance or reduce lines and hollowing
• Understand that results are temporary

Treatment may need to be postponed if you are pregnant, have an active skin infection near the injection site, or are taking blood thinners. A consultation will confirm whether fillers are appropriate for you.

• PRF for hair growth — scalp injections to support hair restoration and thickness

During your consultation, your provider will recommend the most appropriate product or combination of treatments based on your anatomy, concerns, and goals.

What to Expect During Treatment

Your appointment begins with a facial assessment and a review of your goals. From there, your provider selects the appropriate product and develops a treatment plan specific to your anatomy.

A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand, and most HA fillers contain lidocaine to further reduce discomfort. Appointments run 30 to 60 minutes. Most patients return to their normal schedule the same day.

What to Expect After Treatment

Mild swelling, redness, and tenderness are common in the first 24 to 72 hours. Bruising can occur and typically resolves within 5 to 10 days. Final results are visible within 1 to 2 weeks once the swelling fully resolves.

Lip fillers generally last 6 to 12 months. Cheek and jawline fillers may last 12 to 18 months or longer. For the first 48 hours post-treatment, avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, alcohol, and direct sun exposure.

Benefits of Dermal Fillers

Dermal filler injections offer a practical, low-commitment path to facial rejuvenation. For patients not ready for surgery — or those who simply want to address specific concerns without significant downtime — fillers are a clinically sound option.

Key benefits include:

• Immediate, visible results
• No surgery or general anesthesia required
• Minimal downtime
• Reversible — HA fillers can be dissolved if needed
• Multiple areas treated in a single appointment
• Natural-looking, proportionate outcomes

Results are temporary by design, which also works in the patient’s favor. As your face continues to change with age, treatment plans can be adjusted over time to reflect those changes.
