The remarkable popularity of dermal fillers can be attributed to their effectiveness and versatility. They aren’t just for lines and folds. At our practice, we use fillers to add youthful volume in areas such as the cheeks and lips. Lip fillers can also be used to create symmetry and enhance the border of the mouth. Popular filler treatment concerns include:
Dark circles or hollows beneath the eyes
Nasolabial folds framing the mouth
Vertical marionette lines on the chin
Hollow or flattened cheeks
Thin or poorly defined lips
Women and men visit us for a naturally enhanced appearance. The injectable procedure is performed in our office at your appointment.
Your Filler Options
Our practice offers the following injectable fillers:
Restylane: This hyaluronic acid filler is often used to improve the nasolabial fold area and facial creases with smaller folds.
JUVÉDERM: A hyaluronic acid filler, JUVÉDERM can be used to soften facial folds and is available in a variety of consistencies.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA: Another hyaluronic acid filler, JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is FDA-approved to treat cheeks and lasts approximately 2 years. Cheek implants are alternatives that last indefinitely but require surgery.
Non-Surgical Facelift
Dr. Olson often recommends combining dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic in what is known as a non-surgical facelift or “liquid facelift.” This treatment delivers both the volume-boosting effects of fillers with the wrinkle-smoothing benefits of BOTOX to address many of the most common aging concerns in a single session. While this may not replace a surgical facelift for all candidates, it works well for those with early signs of aging who aren’t quite ready for surgery. It’s less invasive, poses a lower risk, and requires less downtime than a surgical facelift, although the results are temporary.
Do I Need Lip Fillers or a Lip Lift?
Lip filler injections are an excellent way to plump up and define the lips; they do not bring the top lip closer to the nose as with a lip lift (see patient photos). Many patients benefit from a combination of these procedures. If you want fuller lips, lip augmentation with dermal fillers is likely the best option.

Frequently Asked Questions
What will happen at my filler consultation?
During your consultation, you will have access to many before and after photos so you can get a better sense of the instantaneous results our patients achieve when they choose injectable fillers. You will also learn about alternatives to fillers such as the fat transfer procedure and lip lift surgery. All of your questions will be answered so that you can make a smart decision. If you decide to have an injectable treatment, it can be administered during your appointment. If you are considering skin care and facial cosmetic surgery, Dr. Olson will work to develop your treatment plan.
Are filler injections painful?
Newer injectable fillers contain lidocaine to greatly decrease the discomfort of the treatment; additionally, we apply a topical anesthetic prior to treatment. The procedure is completed in roughly 15 minutes so any discomfort you may experience is minimal, particularly when compared to the benefits. After your treatment bruising and swelling is generally minor. You can enjoy beautiful results immediately.
How long do filler results last?
Depending on the treatment area and the filler used, results can last from approximately 6 months up to 2 years. Your provider will discuss this with you as part of your treatment plan.
Are fillers safe?
When used under the supervision of a board-certified dermatologist, injectable dermal fillers are very safe. The fillers we use are made from hyaluronic acid (HA)—a synthetic version of a substance that occurs naturally in the body. It is biocompatible and not associated with allergic reactions. These fillers are also reversible, so they can be immediately dissolved if the need arises.
