In today’s world of aesthetic advancements, looking refreshed and youthful doesn’t always require surgery. Dermal fillers have quickly become one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments – and for good reason. At Dr. Dangs Clinic in Dehradun, we’re proud to offer safe, natural-looking filler treatments that help you feel confident in your skin.

If you’re considering fillers for the first time, this blog will walk you through everything you need to know before your appointment.


💡 What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels made of substances that occur naturally in the body – the most common being hyaluronic acid. These fillers are used to:

  • Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
  • Add volume to the face (cheeks, lips, under-eyes)
  • Enhance facial contours
  • Improve skin texture and hydration

Unlike Botox, which relaxes the muscles, fillers add volume and structure where it’s needed.


🏥 What Areas Can Be Treated With Fillers?

At Dr. Dangs Clinic, we commonly use dermal fillers to enhance:

  • Lips – for volume, shape, and hydration
  • Cheeks – for lift and youthful contour
  • Under-Eye Hollows – to reduce dark circles and tired appearance
  • Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines) – to smooth deep creases
  • Chin & Jawline – for definition and balance
  • Forehead and temples – to restore lost volume

Each treatment is customized based on your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.


⏱ How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?

The results of dermal fillers typically last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used, the area treated, and your body’s metabolism. Lip fillers may dissolve faster, while deeper cheek or jawline fillers tend to last longer.

We always use premium, FDA-approved fillers to ensure safety and long-lasting results.


🧑‍⚕️ Is the Procedure Painful?

Most dermal filler injections are quick and relatively painless. A numbing cream is applied before treatment, and many fillers already contain lidocaine (a mild anesthetic) to enhance comfort. You may feel a slight pinch or pressure during the injections, but the discomfort is minimal.


📅 What to Expect Before and After Your First Appointment

Before your appointment:

  • Avoid blood thinners (like aspirin or fish oil) for 3-5 days if possible
  • Stay well-hydrated
  • Discuss any allergies or previous filler experiences with your doctor

After treatment:

  • Mild swelling or bruising may occur and typically resolves in a few days
  • Avoid touching or massaging the treated area unless instructed
  • Skip intense exercise or steam/sauna for 24–48 hours
  • Full results appear in 3–7 days
