Dermal Fillers

Consultations offered at our two convenient locations in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, CA

A dermal filler is an injectable treatment that raises and smooths wrinkles, restores volume, and enhances contours without surgical incisions or extended downtime. (1) Dermal fillers can address visible signs of aging that appear in areas such as the eyes, cheeks, jawline, and lips to create a more youthful, voluptuous appearance.

California Center for Plastic Surgery is ready to meet the demand for this popular and versatile non-surgical aesthetic treatment. Under the leadership of Dr. Sean Younai, our practice has become a trusted destination for facial rejuvenation in Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, Dr. Younai and his team evaluate each face individually and design treatment plans that respect a patient’s natural anatomy while enhancing their best features. This philosophy allows patients to achieve refreshed results that never look overdone.

About Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable gels often made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally exists in the body and plays a key role in maintaining skin hydration and volume. (2) Specialists inject fillers into targeted areas to restore fullness, fill creases and wrinkles, enhance structure, and improve smoothness. Popular for their ability to deliver significant and customized results, dermal fillers are among the most widely sought-after aesthetic treatments. (3)

Dermal fillers offer vast versatility. Patients appreciate these treatments for their ability to address a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including enhancing the lips, sculpting the jawline, and replacing volume to under-eye hollows. Dr. Younai and his team utilize dermal fillers strategically to help patients restore and enhance facial harmony.

Candidates

Potential candidates for dermal fillers are adults who want to enhance facial volume or soften visible signs of aging. These treatments appeal to a wide range of patients, and you may be an ideal candidate if you:

Personal Consultation

Your personal consultation at California Center for Plastic Surgery is the first step toward personalized dermal filler treatment. Here, Dr. Younai or another injection specialist listens to your aesthetic concerns, evaluates your facial structure, and discusses your injection goals. Rather than focusing on isolated problem areas, we look at the face as a whole to ensure that any enhancement complements your natural features.

During this visit, Dr. Younai or an injection specialist reviews your anatomy and medical history and explains how dermal fillers work, including what type of filler may be appropriate for your goals. They also identify where volume loss is present and how strategic placement can improve balance and symmetry. This collaborative approach ensures that you remain informed and confident in your treatment plan, which we will fully customize to your unique goals. The consultation is also a great time to ask questions about the treatment, expected results, and whether or not you may benefit from ongoing maintenance treatments.

Preparation

As a minimally invasive treatment, preparation for dermal filler injections is typically straightforward. Dr. Younai and his staff will provide you with a list of preoperative instructions to ensure a smooth treatment process.

Some typical pre-treatment steps include:

  • Arrive with clean skin free of makeup
  • Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements
  • Limit alcohol intake for at least 24 hours before treatment
  • Refrain from nicotine use

Dr. Younai will cover any additional guidelines during your personal consultation. Should you have any pre-treatment questions, Dr. Younai and his team will remain available to help.

Treatment

Dr. Younai and his skilled team administer dermal filler treatments in a comfortable in-office setting. First, a team member cleanses and prepares your skin. Depending on your preferences, they may provide a topical numbing agent to enhance comfort. Utilizing fine needles or cannulas, your injector carefully administers the filler into the target areas. The process focuses on precision and symmetry, and Dr. Younai and team constantly evaluate your facial harmony throughout the process to deliver your ideal results. Most treatments last under an hour, and patients can typically return to daily activities immediately.

Recovery

One of the greatest benefits of dermal filler treatment is the minimal recovery time. The staff at California Center for Plastic Surgery provides detailed aftercare instructions to support a smooth and successful post-treatment phase. You may experience some swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites, but it typically resolves within a couple of days. Patients are usually able to resume their regular makeup routine within 24 hours, though you should avoid strenuous activity and applying pressure to the injection sites.

Results

Results from your dermal fillers are usually immediately visible and continue to improve as swelling subsides. You will notice smoother contours, restored volume, and improved facial balance. Depending on the filler type and treatment area, results can last over a year or longer with regular maintenance treatments. Dr. Younai and his team will work with you to establish a treatment schedule that maintains your natural-looking enhancements.
