Fillers in Charlottesville, Virginia

If you’re considering ways to achieve a youthful, smooth complexion, you may wonder if fillers are an option for you. At Oculofacial Surgery & Aesthetics in Charlottesville, Virginia, Dr. Kirzhner proudly offers the latest innovation in dermal fillers: RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) fillers. These cutting-edge fillers are designed to provide natural-looking results by mimicking the properties of the body’s own hyaluronic acid, a substance that plays a crucial role in maintaining youthful, hydrated, and supple skin.

What are RHA Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers?

RHA fillers are a new generation of FDA-approved hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers specifically engineered to mimic the skin’s natural resilience and movement. Unlike traditional fillers, which can sometimes result in a stiff or unnatural appearance, RHA fillers are designed to adapt to the face’s natural movements. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance the body creates which allows for a more organic appearance, even when treating severe facial wrinkles.

How Are Dermal Fillers Used?

Aestheticians and medical providers widely use dermal filler procedures to help clients achieve a youthful, fresh appearance.

  • Lip Augmentation: Dermal fillers can be injected into the lips to create a more voluminous look. Whether you’re looking for a super subtle or an intensely dramatic difference, hyaluronic acid fillers are a great way to plump the lips.
  • Smoothing Wrinkles: A dermal filler injection can smooth wrinkles in various spots on the face. Fillers can also help plump pits or craters caused by acne scars.
  • Enhancing Facial Symmetry: When strategically placed, injectable fillers can help create more symmetry in uneven cheeks, chins, and other facial features.

Types of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

Injectable hyaluronic acid is available in various formulations, each tailored to address specific concerns and areas of the face:

  • RHA® 2: Designed for treating moderate to severe nasolabial folds (laugh lines) and marionette lines.
  • RHA® 3: Ideal for correcting moderate to severe parentheses lines (smile lines) and corner lines around the mouth.
  • RHA® 4: Formulated to restore volume and contour in the cheek and mid-face area, providing a natural-looking lift and rejuvenation.

What to Expect from Your RHA Filler Treatment

Before your RHA filler treatment, our team will thoroughly evaluate your concerns and desired outcomes. Based on this assessment, we will recommend the most appropriate RHA filler formulation and develop a personalized treatment plan. During the procedure, you will receive an injection of RHA filler into the targeted areas using a fine needle. The treatment itself is relatively quick and comfortable, with most patients experiencing minimal discomfort. 

After your treatment, you may experience some mild swelling, bruising, or redness, which should subside within a few days. Our team will provide you with detailed post-treatment instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results. You’ll typically find your results last between 6-12 months.
