Tissue Fillers in NYC

With time, the effects of years of facial muscle movements crease the overlying skin, leaving behind laugh lines, crow’s feet, smile lines, frown lines, vertical lip lines, and marionette lines.

Rediscover Youthful Radiance

Also, the volume of tissue under the skin decreases with age and can be restored especially the lips and cheekbones. Aging gracefully doesn’t mean you must accept what nature dictates. Restylane and Juvéderm injections, or natural fat transfer, can help you maintain a refreshed, youthful look, restoring your inner glow of confidence.

What is a tissue filler?

Tissue fillers are injected to fill the underlying skin structure and smooth the overlying skin. You have the option of synthetic, hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as the Juvéderm collection, an array of injectables from Restylane, or natural fat transfer.

What is natural fat transfer?

As an alternative filler material, fat cells can be harvested from an area of your body where they are abundant, such as the thighs, flanks, or belly. Once purified, they are then meticulously transferred to enhance your facial look for the long term. Synthetic fillers will gradually be absorbed over time, while fat cells become integrated into your tissues for a longer-term result. This minimally invasive procedure can usually be done while awake with local anesthesia.

What areas can be treated with tissue fillers?

Tissue fillers, whether natural fat or hyaluronic acid dermal filler, can enhance several facial areas, including:

Temples
Cheeks
Chin
Jawline
Lips
Hollows beneath the eyes

Your in-depth consultation

During your private consultation with our plastic surgeon, you can discuss your goals, expectations, and personal aesthetic wishes.

Your facial condition, skin quality, and underlying tissues will be evaluated to ensure the treatment is ideal for you.

Administering dermal fillers

Both Restylane and Juvéderm are injected using small needles into the deep layer of the skin or lips. The skin is “plumped,” and creases and fine lines are filled in. Injections with synthetic dermal fillers take only about 30 minutes to perform. We focus on ensuring you have a comfortable, painless experience. Dr. Hyman will use numbing cream as well as ice to provide further comfort.

What to expect from a fat transfer procedure

During a natural fat transfer procedure, fat cells are carefully harvested with gentle liposuction from an area of excess, such as the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks. The fat cells are then purified and injected into sunken or hollow areas of the face.

Smaller facial regions can be addressed using local anesthesia in the office, while larger fat transfer procedures are performed at Dr. Joshua Hyman’s private ambulatory surgery facility. The procedure can take between 30 minutes to two hours depending upon the extent of the changes required.

What will recovery entail?

You may experience minor bruising or swelling after your treatment, which should disappear within a few days. If you have had natural fat transfer to enhance your facial look without synthetic substances, you may need a few more days. Take the time to rest and relax and drink plenty of liquids.
