Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a beauty-forward treatment option that help restore volume and rejuvenate the skin to enhance natural beauty and renew confidence. These injectables can effectively reduce the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles, create more facial symmetry, add volume, and contour certain areas of the face.
Our dedicated team will work with you to make dermal fillers a personalized part of your transformative wellness journey here at Youth Lab. Let’s explore what makes dermal fillers such a desirable aesthetic treatment and how they can work for you!
What Are Dermal Fillers and How Do They Work?
Dermal fillers, commonly known as hyaluronic acid fillers, are substances injected beneath the skin to help plump, fill, and contour areas of the face. They restore volume and fullness to the skin, effectively diminishing signs of aging.
Hyaluronic acid fillers draw water molecules to the injection site, aiding in skin hydration and moisture, while also delivering a tightening effect. Dermal fillers offer immediate lifting and shaping in specific regions, contributing to a rejuvenated look.
Depending on the treatment area, outcomes from dermal filler procedures are visible right after the session and last for up to a year or more. Over time, the body naturally breaks down the hyaluronic acid, and the effects gradually diminish.

Benefits of Using Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a highly versatile treatment that can help with aesthetic goals at any age. They can help with aesthetic goals at any age. Here are some of Youth Lab’s favorite benefits.
- MINIMALLY INVASIVE. Dermal filler injections are minimally invasive procedures compared to surgical options, making them a popular choice for individuals looking to enhance their appearance without extensive downtime.
- TARGETED TREATMENT FOR WRINKLES & LINES. Dermal fillers offer targeted, effective treatment for specific areas of concern, such as facial wrinkles, fine lines, and folds. They can even target thin lines around the lips and take away that tired look from under the eyes.
- Restoring facial volume with fillers. One of the key benefits of dermal fillers is their ability to restore lost facial volume, particularly in areas prone to age-related volume loss. By plumping and lifting the skin, fillers can help in achieving a more youthful appearance. They can also bring more harmony to the face, giving you plumper cheeks or lips.
- Facial contouring. Dermal fillers are a safe, easy way to achieve a contoured look. Whether you want to sharpen your jawline or enhance your cheekbones, dermal fillers aren’t just for volume. They can augment your features, too.
Types of Dermal Fillers

Annual maintenance sessions at Youth Lab are necessary to maintain your desired results.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do dermal fillers cost?
Costs will vary based on what filler brand you choose and which filler product you choose. Additionally, the cost of treatment depends on how large the area treated is, because this affects how many syringes of product need to be used. At Youth Lab, we curate dermal filler treatment plans that are as personal as you are. That’s why we recommend coming in for a one-on-one consultation with an experienced Youth Lab provider to receive the most accurate quote for treatment.
Can I get other treatments with my dermal fillers?
Combining different aesthetic treatments with dermal fillers is not only common but often recommended to achieve comprehensive, synergistic results. Dermal fillers combined with neurotoxins like Botox can offer patients full facial balancing and overall youthful results. RF Microneedling or laser treatments like BBL/MOXI can optimize your results for increased youthfulness and well-being.
Are dermal fillers painful?
While the treatment may be a little uncomfortable, patients rarely report pain. Juvederm and Restylane filler syringes have lidocaine, a numbing agent, in them. If you need extra comfort, your Nurse Injector can apply a topical anesthetic prior to injection.
