What Issues Can Fillers Address?
Dermal fillers are effective for a range of age-related concerns, including:- Smoothing depressed areas around the eyes
- Enhancing thin lips
- Adding volume to deep facial creases
- Restoring fullness in areas like temples or lower cheeks
- Reducing visible scars
- Providing a plumper appearance to the cheeks
How Do Fillers Work?
At Kleydman Dermatology in Brooklyn, NY & Upper East Side, NY, fillers, whether synthetic or naturally-derived, are injected directly into the skin to add volume where it's needed most. Depending on the type of filler and the treatment plan, results can last from six months to five years. Unlike Botox, which restricts muscle movement to minimize wrinkles, fillers enhance skin volume to smooth out lines and wrinkles.
Optimal Timing for Fillers
The decision of when to get fillers varies by individual. Some opt for fillers at the first signs of aging, while others may wait until they are dissatisfied with their skin’s appearance. At Kleydman Dermatology in Brooklyn, NY & Upper East Side, NY, Dr. Kleydman can guide you on the best timing based on your skin's condition.
Types of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
At Kleydman Dermatology, we provide many hyaluronic acid fillers in the Juvéderm and Restylane families. These fillers are ideal for plumping wrinkles and folds, enhancing facial features that appear sunken, particularly in the cheeks, lips, tear troughs, temples, nasolabial folds, marionette lines and jawline. The gel-like nature of hyaluronic acid helps attract water to the treated area, providing a natural plumpness.

Results vary but generally last from 3 months to 2 years, depending on the treatment area and individual factors like metabolism.
Injectable Treatments – Frequently Asked Questions
- Combination with Neurotoxins: Yes, fillers can be used alongside neurotoxins, such as Botox and Dysport, for a "liquid lift," often extending the durability of the fillers.
- Age for Starting Injectables: This is personal; some start in their late 20s to early 30s to prevent deep lines from forming, while others begin in their 30s to 40s to address volume loss.
- Frequency of Treatments: Typically, effects last 6-18 months, and regular treatments can extend this duration.
- Risk of Marks: Using fillers with thinner needles, like hyaluronic acid fillers, can minimize the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, especially in patients with darker skin tones.
