If you’ve been considering dermal fillers, you might be scared off by some of the myths about them. For example, who can blame you for being wary of getting a permanent solution to your aging skin when people keep saying that fillers are temporary? And if it’s not temporary, then how can you trust that it won’t cause complications? Well, I’m here to set the record straight on all those misconceptions and more. Here are five common myths about dermal fillers debunked:
Fillers are temporary.
You might think that because fillers are injected into your skin, they’re temporary. But they’re not. Fillers can last for years and years–even if you don’t want them to!
The reason why most people think fillers are temporary is because they were introduced as such. However, modern-day dermal fillers are much more advanced than their predecessors and can be used to treat a wide variety of facial features (like wrinkles) without having to worry about the effects wearing off after only a few months or weeks like those old ones did before them.
Fillers are safe.
Dermal fillers are safe, but they can cause side effects. The most common side effects include bruising, swelling and pain. These are usually temporary and will go away on their own within a few days. If you experience any of these problems following your treatment with Dr. Rossi, please contact us so we can help you manage them appropriately!
Fillers can last forever.
One of the most common myths about dermal fillers is that they last forever. While it is true that dermal fillers can help you look younger and more vibrant, they aren’t permanent–and many people will need to have additional treatments over time.
The length of time your filler lasts depends on several factors:
- The type of filler you use (some last longer than others)
- How well you take care of your skin before and after treatment
- How much sun exposure your face gets during the day (UV rays break down hyaluronic acid)
Fillers are expensive.
You can get fillers for $20 or you can get them for $2000, so it’s important to know what you’re getting for your money. The most expensive fillers are not always the best and vice versa.
It’s also important to know that there are many different types of fillers–some more expensive than others–and each one comes with its own set of pros and cons. So while some people may prefer one type over another based on their specific needs, it’s a good idea not to assume that any particular brand is better than another just because it costs more money!
Dermal filler myths can lead to bad results and disappointment, so it’s important to know what actually happens when you get a treatment.
Dermal fillers aren’t permanent, but they do last for years.
Dermal fillers are not safe, so you should only get them from a certified doctor or plastic surgeon.
Dermal fillers are expensive, but if you shop around and find the right provider, they can be affordable for most people
