What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable products that minimize fine lines and wrinkles, add volume, and promote natural collagen production for a smoother complexion. Typically made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, dermal fillers are safe for most patients.
At Plastic Surgery of Michigan, we offer the versatile Juvéderm® and Restylane® dermal filler lines. These product families come in different gel consistencies to increase volume, smooth moderate to severe wrinkles, and improve facial contours.
With minimal downtime, Juvéderm® and Restylane® fillers provide immediate benefits that can last for up to two years with optimal placement. During your treatment, we can apply topical anesthetics or ice to reduce discomfort. Dermal fillers can enhance areas like these:
- Lips and perioral area
- Cheeks
- Chin
- Nasolabial folds

If you would like to look younger and improve your skin’s overall quality without having surgery, facial filler injections can restore your self-image and well-being.

What Happens During a Dermal Filler Procedure in Michigan?
Dr. Lofman uses his expertise to educate all his patients about the steps involved in their Juvéderm and Restylane procedures. While each Michigan filler patient will have a unique experience, here are some general steps you can expect.
Pre-Treatment
Reduce the risk of bruising by avoiding taking any blood-thinning medications and supplements, such as aspirin, Advil, Motrin, and vitamin E, or consuming alcohol for at least one to two days before your treatment.
Our team will welcome you to our office on the day of your appointment. Then, Dr. Lofman will ensure you are comfortable, answer any last-minute questions, and review crucial details. As dermal filler injections are usually well-tolerated by most patients, you will not receive anesthesia. However, please address all pain concerns with Dr. Lofman before beginning your Juvéderm or Restylane treatment in Oakland County.
During Treatment
Typically, Juvéderm and Restylane injectable procedures are quick and painless, with most patients reporting only minimal discomfort.
Depending on the treatment areas, the injectable procedure takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes.
Post Treatment
Juvéderm and Restylane procedures require little to no downtime. Mild side effects can include bruising or swelling at the injection site, which should subside within a few days.
Most people can return to their usual schedule directly after a dermal filler procedure. However, please avoid strenuous activities, including exercising, for at least 24 to 48 hours.
Following Dr. Lofman’s post-procedural instructions regarding limiting physical activities, cleansing, and sun exposure is crucial to ensure your optimal results from the best dermal filler provider in Oakland County.
How Soon Will I See My Michigan Filler Results?
Most patients notice an immediate improvement. However, depending on the product used, your appearance will change more gradually, providing softer, subtler results that typically appear in two to three weeks.
Your experience will vary based on the number of units required to resolve your concerns, the areas you have treated, and your body’s unique response. With optimal placement, Juvéderm injectable filler results can last from six months to two years, and Restylane injectable filler results can last from six months to a year. You can maintain your rejuvenated look with regular touch-up treatments.
