At Emira Aesthetics we offer a natural and conservative approach to facial balancing with dermal fillers. We use hyaluronic acid based fillers which can be safely injected into many areas of the face to correct volume defects as well as improve skin texture and fine lines. Areas that can safely be treated by dermal filler include the temple hollows, under-eye area, cheeks, lips, chin, marionette lines, nasolabial folds and jawline. We currently use a combination of Restylane, Juvederm, Revanesse and RHA products depending on patient requirements.

Immediately after treatment we recommend you avoid significant movement or massage of the treated area unless instructed by the provider. Please avoid strenuous exercise or anything that increases your heart rate for 24 hours. Avoid extensive sun or heat for 72 hours (no sauna, or hot tub). Avoid consuming excess amounts of alcohol or salts to prevent additional swelling. You may apply a cool compress or ice pack for 15 minutes each hour while awake to reduce swelling.

You may take Tylenol (acetaminophen) if you develop any discomfort. Do not use NSAIDs (ibuprofen, aspirin) for 24 hours before and after treatment as they can increase bleeding. Try to sleep face up and with your head slightly elevated if you experience swelling. You may want to consider taking Arnica applied once daily (found in health food stores) to help with the bruising and swelling after treatment. Signs of vascular occlusion include worsening bruising, increasing pain or blanching/whitening of the skin. You should contact a health care provider immediately if you have any concerns.
