Dermal Fillers

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal Fillers are injectable treatments made from biocompatible substances—most commonly hyaluronic acid (HA)—that restore volume and hydration beneath the skin’s surface. As we age, our natural collagen, elastin, and fat stores diminish, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging. Dermal fillers replace this lost volume to smooth, lift, and sculpt the face, helping you achieve a more youthful and balanced appearance.

At Biosymmetry Wilmington, we use a variety of premium filler products to achieve precise, natural-looking results tailored to your facial structure and goals. Treatments are quick, comfortable, and require little to no downtime.

How Dermal Fillers Work

During your Dermal Filler treatment, a trained injector uses a fine needle or cannula to place the filler into targeted areas beneath the skin. The filler adds instant volume and lift, while hyaluronic acid-based products also attract and retain moisture for ongoing rejuvenation.

The procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes, depending on the areas treated. Results are visible immediately and continue to improve as the filler settles. Most patients experience minimal swelling or redness, which resolves within a few days, allowing you to return to your daily routine right away.

Conditions Treated with Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are versatile and can be used to correct a wide variety of aesthetic concerns across the face and hands.

Common treatment areas and concerns include:

• Fine lines and wrinkles (around the mouth, nose, and eyes)
• Loss of facial volume (cheeks, temples, and under eyes)
• Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
• Marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth)
• Lip enhancement (plumping and shaping)
• Jawline and chin definition
• Hand rejuvenation (restoring volume and smoothness)
