Experience the Proper Use of Filler at Metropolitan Skin Clinic

At Metropolitan Skin Clinic, we take filler seriously. There are so many instances of filler gone wrong that it is starting to become a negative topic. However, this treatment can refresh, rejuvenate, and restore your aesthetic! #FillerGoneRight is something that we strive for at Metropolitan, and we won’t fill just to fill. Instead, we are intentional with our placement and our dosing, and this is because we truly want to provide you with a natural, symmetrical look that isn’t overfilled or puffy. 

At Metropolitan Skin Clinic, we use the JUVÉDERM® Collection of Fillers. JUVÉDERM® is FDA-approved and is a malleable gel that can be used in nearly any area of the face that needs volume restoration. These fillers are versatile (with five different variations to choose from), they last long, and they offer natural-looking results. Let us help #YouLookLikeYou and experience an elevated and enhanced aesthetic with Metropolitan Skin Clinic! 

What Is JUVÉDERM®?

As mentioned above, we offer the JUVÉDERM® Collection of Fillers. These products can be used on anyone 21 years of age or older. JUVÉDERM® is made up of a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid (HA) that increases and maintains your skin’s moisture and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When injected underneath the skin, it restores volume and results in a smooth, natural appearance to make the treated area appear fuller and firmer. JUVÉDERM® is non-surgical and quick, and it produces significant, long-lasting results. Even though this filler can last between six and 18 months, we do recommend that you schedule maintenance sessions to keep up the appearance you desire.

JUVÉDERM® Products Offered at Metropolitan Skin Clinic

At Metropolitan Skin Clinic, we are proud to offer five different JUVÉDERM® formulas that can be used for various enhancements. Here is a brief breakdown of the JUVÉDERM® fillers we use:

  • JUVÉDERM® Ultra: Treats wrinkles and lines around the nose and mouth
  • JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus: Increases volume in the lips
  • JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE™: Treats volume loss around the nose and mouth
  • JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™: Increases volume in the cheeks
  • JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA™: Restores lip volume

A consultation with our providers will determine which product is right for you so that we can help you achieve the natural look you’ve been dreaming of! 

Where Can JUVÉDERM® Be Used?

Whether you’re looking to plump thinning lips or fill aging hands, JUVÉDERM® can be administered artfully and subtly so that you do not experience an overdone look. Dermal fillers can be injected:

  • Into the temples
  • Around the eyes, nose, chin, and mouth
  • In the mid face area
  • Into the lips
  • In the jowl area
  • In the hands
  • In the earlobes

Fillers not only restore lost volume, they also refresh and rejuvenate your whole look while keeping a natural appearance. 

Our Filler Process

We hear the question “How often should I have filler?” To be honest, it isn’t an easy one-answer-fits-all type of question. At Metropolitan Skin Clinic, we like to build upon the filler as a journey. We will start with a few syringes and then do a follow-up after six weeks to find out if more filler is needed or not. This process allows us to see how your body handles the filler and gives you a chance to make sure that you are loving your results. Once “full correction” is achieved, then maintenance treatments are suggested every six months to one year. Our injectors are passionate, experienced, and highly trained, ensuring that you will be satisfied when you come in for your filler appointment. 

The Appointment

During the actual treatment session, we will help you select the right product to use. We will then examine the desired treatment area to determine the proper dosage and injection point(s). Each appointment varies in duration and can last from one hour to several hours, depending on the amount of product being placed. You will be provided with aftercare instructions that prohibit things like working out, applying makeup 24 hours after, pressing on the filled areas, and more. While this treatment is relatively easy, it does come with a few limitations on what you can do after your filler treatment to ensure proper results. 

#YouLookLikeYou

If for some reason you request a filler that we do not suggest for your facial features or that we do not agree with, we will let you know! We want you to look and feel your best no matter what, and an overfilled, puffy look is not it! At Metropolitan, we are committed to educating you and can suggest other tools that will help you achieve a balanced aesthetic.
