Most want to maintain smooth, youthful, plump skin for as long as possible. But aging is inevitable, and as you grow older, the loss of facial volume leads to the onset of wrinkles, hollow cheeks, and deep nasolabial folds.
Reverse the Appearance of Aging
While we can’t stop the aging process, we can use dermal fillers to reverse the effects of age on your skin. Cutella Medical Spa provides a comprehensive suite of dermal fillers in San Antonio to reverse the signs of aging and help you look effortlessly ageless.
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are cosmetic injections that add volume underneath your skin. As you grow older, the loss of collagen and hyaluronic acid from the skin leads to wrinkles, loss of midface volume, deep tear troughs, thin lips, and other signs of aging. Dermal fillers add volume underneath the skin or stimulate your body’s natural collagen production capabilities, thus reversing the effects of age on the face. Dermal fillers can fill out fine lines and wrinkles, restore facial volume, and elevate your natural facial contours.
Types of Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Restylane and Juvéderm, are made of a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring gel that adds volume to your skin. Hyaluronic acid is a gelatinous substance that binds up to 1,000x its weight in water, making your skin look smooth, soft, and supple. HA fillers restore your skin’s depleting hyaluronic acid reserves to fill out the fine lines and wrinkles, add volume under the skin, and elevate your facial contours.
Collagen-Inducing Fillers
Collagen-inducing fillers, such as Sculptra and Radiesse, are dermal fillers in San Antonio used to stimulate natural collagen production. Collagen is a fibrous protein that binds your skin tissues together and holds your skin upright against the force of gravity. The loss of collagen because of age is the primary reason for the onset of wrinkles and the loss of facial volume. Collagen-inducing fillers contain substances that stimulate natural collagen production, making your skin look firm and voluminous.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers:

- Reverse the signs of aging with a few injections
- Completely safe and painless treatment
- No harsh side effects or complications
- Stimulate natural collagen production
- Restore your skin’s depleting hyaluronic acid

Your Dermal Filler Treatment in San Antonio
You can expect a highly personalized dermal fillers in San Antonio experience at our medical spa. Our medical providers will carefully examine your facial skin, discuss your goals, review your medical history, and discuss your treatment options. We select the ideal dermal filler (or fillers) based on your goals and mark the treatment areas on your face. The chosen dermal fillers are carefully injected into the targeted areas using ultrafine needles. The treatment concludes within 30 minutes, depending on the number of injections necessary.
Side Effects & Recovery
Dermal fillers are perfectly safe. You may experience mild swelling, tenderness, redness, and bruising around the treatment areas for the first few days, though the degree of swelling depends on the chosen filler and your lifestyle. You can resume your daily activities and work immediately, but you should avoid strenuous workouts for a day.
Results
The results of hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm and Restylane, appear instantly and last for 6 to 18 months, depending on the treatment area and the chosen filler. But the results of collagen-inducing fillers, such as Sculptra and Radiesse, improve gradually over several weeks as your body produces new collagen fibers and last for several years.
