Injectable Fillers & Anti-Aging Treatments New Jersey
Though it’s inevitable that we all must age, it doesn’t mean we have to deteriorate without a fight. These days there are quite a few options for rejuvenating your look without the need for surgery. Injectable Fillers are growing in popularity each year while the quality of the product continues to evolve.
Dr. Adam Hamawy is an experienced and skilled plastic surgeon in New Jersey who understands how to incorporate injectable fillers to best compliment your looks.
What are Injectable Fillers?
Injectable fillers are a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure option designed to smooth away wrinkles while providing volume to hollowed regions of the face. They include products such as Juvederm, Voluma, or Restylane. You can even choose to transfer fat from somewhere else in the body and use that as a filler. There are several variations when it comes to this affordable anti-aging facial treatment and Dr. Hamawy will discuss with you which options work best to fulfill your desired outcome.
Why the Doctor Matter when getting Fillers
Today, your family doctors, dentists, ER doctors, pediatricians, OB-GYNs, nurses and physician assistants with little experience in facial anatomy all are using injectable fillers. A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon has spent years of supervised training learning and operating around this anatomy. A good injector has to be comfortable with the relationships of all the important structures that lie deep in the face including arteries, veins, nerves and muscles. This can be gained only after extensive training and years of experience.
Artistry and technique are skills learned by only a few core specialties during their formal medical training. These traits are important factors for optimal results when dealing with injectable fillers. Our progressive approach to injectable fillers is designed to achieve balanced, natural looking results. It’s not just about filling in a wrinkle; it’s about facial contouring that will enhance our best features. You be rest assured knowing that you are in the best hands with Dr. Hamawy and his team of professionals.
There are several injectors who can be good, but it’s important that they have many years’ experience using fillers and can show you samples of their work.
Anesthesia
Options for anesthesia include the topical variety, which is a cream that can be placed directly on the skin, or injectable anesthesia that is often mixed right in with the filler. Direct injection of anesthesia usually provides the best comfort out off all of these options, making lips more comfortable during the injection process.
Risks and/or Side effects from Injectable Fillers
Rarely, fillers can cause complications such as an obstruction of blood flow to part of the face. This can lead to serious problems if not recognized early. The Hyluronidase and Nitropaste available in Dr. Hamawy’s New Jersey office can be used to treat such a problem.
We also recommend against using any permanent injectable fillers for cosmetic improvements since they cannot be reversed and if they develop any problems, these can be more severe.
It’s also important to note that patients who want to minimize or eliminate any bruising associated with the injections should not to use blood thinners about two weeks beforehand. Blood thinners are not limited to just prescription medicine, but include Aspirin, energy drinks, herbal teas and some vitamins and supplements like fish oil.
