Dermal fillers have revolutionized non-surgical facial rejuvenation by restoring lost volume, smoothing wrinkles, and enhancing facial features with natural-looking results. At Manhattan Aesthetics, we offer a wide and carefully curated selection of FDA-approved dermal fillers designed to address different needs and aesthetic goals.
What are Dermal Fillers Used For?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to add volume beneath the skin. Depending on the formula, fillers can:
- Plump the lips
- Smooth nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Restore volume to cheeks and temples
- Minimize under-eye hollows
- Improve jawline definition
- Soften chin dimpling
- Rejuvenate the hands
- Reduce the appearance of acne scars
The most common type of filler is made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance that occurs naturally in the body. HA fillers are often tailored to specific areas, making them a flexible choice. Other fillers, like Sculptra®, Radiesse®, and Bellafill®, use different ingredients that offer longer-lasting or collagen-stimulating results.
Which Dermal Filler is Best?
The “best” dermal filler depends on your goals, treatment area, and how long you want results to last. Manhattan Aesthetics offers a wide range of high-performance fillers, each with distinct benefits:
Juvederm®, Belotero® and Restylane® (Hyaluronic Acid Fillers)
These three popular families of HA fillers are ideal for subtle volume restoration and wrinkle smoothing. They are versatile and widely used. Belotero® is a soft HA filler formulated for superficial fine lines and delicate areas like crow’s feet or vertical lip lines.
HA fillers typically last between 6–18 months, depending on the product and treatment area.
Sculptra®
Unlike HA fillers, Sculptra® is made with poly-L-lactic acid. It gradually stimulates your body to produce collagen, improving facial volume and skin firmness over time.
It’s ideal for clients seeking long-term facial rejuvenation with results that develop naturally over several months. Results can last over 2 years.
Radiesse®
Radiesse® is a calcium hydroxylapatite-based filler that provides immediate volume and stimulates collagen production. It’s commonly used for deeper folds, jawline contouring, and hand rejuvenation. It offers long-lasting support.
Bellafill®
As one of the longest-lasting fillers, Bellafill® is made with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres suspended in collagen gel. It’s often used to improve acne scars or deep facial folds and may last up to five years.
Allofill®
This unique filler is derived from allograft fat tissue and can be used as a natural alternative to synthetic fillers. Allofill® offers soft, long-lasting volume restoration and is commonly used for facial contouring, acne scars, and body applications.
Am I a Good Candidate for Dermal Fillers?
Most adults in good health with realistic expectations are excellent candidates for dermal fillers. You may benefit from fillers if you want to:
- Restore lost facial volume
- Soften fine lines or deep creases
- Enhance your facial contours
- Achieve a more youthful appearance without surgery
Certain fillers may be more appropriate based on your goals, age, skin type, and treatment history. During your consultation at Manhattan Aesthetics, a skilled aesthetic provider will assess your facial anatomy and recommend the right filler or combination of fillers for your needs.
