Are Dermal Fillers For Me?

As we age, our skin goes through many changes—including a decline in the production of collagen. This fibrous protein helps maintain your skin’s natural elasticity and firmness, so its loss can lead to wrinkles and lines on your complexion. Over time, your body’s natural production of oils also decreases, causing the skin to become drier and fragile.
While aging is a natural process, many women seek for ways to look younger and enhance their appearance through plastic surgery. However, at North Scottsdale Laser and Skincare Clinic, we recommend treatments such as dermal fillers to restore our clients’ natural beauty without the costs and risks associated with invasive cosmetic surgery. Learn more about dermal fillers and whether they are the right anti-aging treatment for you.

How dermal fillers work:

Dermal fillers are injected in small amounts into the desired areas of your complexion and flow easily into your skin—quickly erasing unwanted lines and restoring your youthful complexion. The treatment typically takes less than 30 minutes and recovery time is minimal. Patients can see results immediately and they can last up to two years.

Dermal fillers we use:

At North Scottsdale Laser and Skin Care Clinic, we offer different types of dermal fillers—from temporary to permanent.
