What are Dermal Fillers?

Dr. Joseph C. Galitzin offers a complete line of dermal fillers at his office in Peachtree City, GA, to ensure you receive the right solution to reverse the signs again and reveal a more youthful appearance. At Skin Care at 5th Avenue, we offer JUVÉDERM®, JUVÉDERM Voluma XC®, JUVÉDERM® VOLUX® XC and RADIESSE® to soften lines and wrinkles and enhance skin volume. Our wide range of dermal fillers allows Dr. Galitzin to select the most appropriate option to meet your individual needs and cosmetic goals.

Juvederm® Volbella XC®

JUVEDERM® VOLBELLA® with lidocaine is the latest advancement in the Juvederm® range of fillers, developed specifically for your lips and mouth area. It is a smooth gel that is injected by Dr. Galitzin, using an ultra-fine needle. It has been specifically developed as a smooth gel to give a soft, natural feel. The gel fills in lip lines and wrinkles during the hyaluronic acid within attracts and retains moisture, so results can last up to a year.

JUVÉDERM Voluma XC®

JUVÉDERM Voluma XC® is also composed of hyaluronic acid, but it has additional abilities beyond plumping lines and wrinkles. This dermal filler also restores volume to the cheeks, the area beneath the eyes, and other facial areas. As with BELOTERO Balance®, JUVÉDERM Voluma XC® contains a small amount of anesthetic and is injected with a flexible cannula to minimize pain, discomfort, and swelling. Any redness, swelling, or bruising you see should dissipate within a couple of weeks and you can resume your regular activities within 24 hours. JUVÉDERM Voluma XC® results can last up to two years.

JUVÉDERM® VOLUX® XC

The jawline is a difficult area to tone or enhance, typically requiring cosmetic surgical intervention for augmentation. Thankfully,  JUVÉDERM now offers a non-surgical option for patients looking to improve their profile with VOLUX XC. This gel filler is the first and only FDA-approved HA designed to temporarily improve the jawline’s appearance in patients with moderate-to-severe loss of definition. Patients can add volume to improve the shape and structure of their lower face and achieve a smoother and more defined jawline and profile. Many patients have seen results that lasted 9 – 12 months with optimal treatment. Achieve your desired look from any angle and achieve an improved jawline definition with JUVÉDERM VOLUX XC.

RADIESSE®

RADIESSE® is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite, another substance that occurs naturally within the body. These injections are used to add volume and fullness to the backs of the hands. You may see some bruising, redness, swelling, or itching at the injection site, but you can return to your normal activities the same day. RADIESSE® results can last up to one year.

Lift & Slim Package

For the promotional rate of $2,100, we are now offering an exclusive filler package that is designed to lift and slim the face. This treatment utilizes fillers to lift the face by adding filler to the cheeks and to the jawline to contour. Fillers featured in this package include Voluma & Volux.

What to Expect on the Day of Dermal Fillers

When you are ready for your Dermal Fillers, you will begin by having strategic points on your face marked as appropriate injection sites for the filler. While these points may not be concrete, it helps Dr. Galitizin map out his approach. Next, your skin will be cleansed and anesthetized to make sure you have a sterile and comfortable treatment. We may also try to numb the treatment area with a cold compress to minimize any pain from the needle injection. Each injection is performed with a very fine needle and should only take moments per site. Dr. Galitzin will inject the filler, gently massage it around to disperse it a bit, and evaluate the results, only adding more if needed. After you are both satisfied with your appearance, you will be cleaned off and you will be given an ice pack to reduce swelling and alleviate discomfort.

Dermal Fillers Recovery

Once you are released, you will be able to return to your normal routine, but you should avoid any intense activities to avoid bruising or swelling. You should also do your best to avoid sunlight during the first 24 – 48 hours, but more importantly, avoid touching your face following your treatment. If you manipulate the filler too much, it has the potential to migrate to other areas, giving an unwanted and uneven appearance.

You may have an “overfilled” appearance that will subside over the next few days, in addition to some potential lumps or “hard” areas from the filler. You will most likely have some swelling or bruising occur that can range from mild to severe, or you might experience some temporary redness or soreness. These conditions can be alleviated with some topical icing or light massaging and should improve within a matter of hours or a few days.

How Much Do Dermal Fillers Cost in Peachtree City, GA?

The cost of Dermal Fillers in the Atlanta area is determined by a number of factors, including the amount of filler you need and the type of filler used. After meeting with Dr. Galitzin and he can make your treatment plan, you will be given a breakdown of the cost for the entire treatment.

Dermal Fillers FAQs

Are Dermal Fillers painful?

The Dermal Filler procedure is often considered to be painless because we do apply a numbing cream and cold compress before the treatment. You may find the injection to be a little uncomfortable, but they are very quick. Afterward, we give you an ice pack to alleviate any pain and minimize swelling.

How many appointments will I need?

Many of our Dermal Filler patients only need one treatment to see the stunning results, but there have been instances where patients want more or the filler doesn’t “take”, requiring additional treatment. Also, dermal fillers are not a permanent treatment, so your body will naturally absorb the filler over time. As this happens, you may want to come back for a touch-up appointment, usually every six months or so.

How long until I see results?

You should leave our office seeing very positive improvements, however, your face may appear slightly swollen or reddened. After a few days, the swelling should go away, revealing better results. On average, most patients will see their final results in about four weeks post-treatment.

Can I combine Dermal Fillers with other procedures?

Many of our Dermal Filler patients in the greater Atlanta area like to combine other skin rejuvenation treatments, including AquaGold Fine Touch or BOTOX. If you have a particular look you would like to achieve, please discuss this with Dr. Galitzin during your consultation and he will be able to help you find the perfect combination of aesthetic treatments.

What are the risks associated with Dermal Fillers?

At Skin Care at 5th Ave., Dr. Galitzin and our team take your health and safety very seriously. When an experienced injector performs your treatment, there are very minimal risks involved with Dermal Fillers. That being said, there can be certain side effects that are associated with the treatment, including:
  • Acne-like skin eruptions
  • Asymmetry
  • Bleeding from the injection site
  • Bruising
  • Damage to the skin that results in a wound and possible scarring
  • Infection at the injection site
  • Lumps
  • The palpability of the filler under the surface of the skin
  • Skin necrosis (ulceration or loss of skin from disruption of blood flow)
  • Skin rash with itching
  • Skin redness
  • Swelling
  • Under- or over-correction of wrinkles
Most of these side effects will heal or resolve on their own over a few hours up to a few days, but if you experience any long-lasting or concerning reactions, please do not hesitate to contact our office. If you experience any numbness or tingling on either side of your body, please contact us immediately.
