Dermal Fillers in Brookfield

Filler injections are performed with fine-gauge needles or blunt-tipped cannulas depending on the area. Most patients describe the sensation as mild pressure or pinching and is manageable with our comfort measures like topical numbing cream and Vibrata device. Appointments are calm, conversational, and most filler appointments take 30–60 minutes from start to finish, depending on the number of syringes and treatment areas. Many patients return to work or social activities the same day.

It is normal to experience mild swelling, tenderness, and occasional bruising in the 24–72 hours following treatment. Swelling is most significant in the first 48 hours and typically resolves within 1–2 weeks. Final results are best assessed at the 2-week mark, once all product has fully settled. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive heat (saunas, hot yoga), and alcohol for 24–48 hours post-treatment.

This varies significantly based on your anatomy, degree of volume loss, treatment area, and goals. As a general reference:

• Lips: 0.5–1 syringe
• Cheeks/midface: 1–2 syringes per side
• Jawline or chin: 1–2 syringes
• Smile lines: 0.5–1 syringe per side
• Full facial balancing: 3–6+ syringes, often layered across multiple appointments

We always recommend a conservative starting point. You can always add more at a follow-up and the "low and slow" approach consistently produces the most natural, beautiful outcomes.

Duration and longevity depends on the specific product and area treated as well as individual metabolic rates and lifestyles.

• Juvederm Voluma: Up to 2 years (cheeks, jawline)
• Juvederm Volux: Up to 2 years (chin, jawline)
• Juvederm Vollure: 12–18 months (smile lines)
• Juvederm Volbella: 12 months (lips, fine lines)
• Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus: 6–12 months (lips, moderate folds)

Yes, Juvederm fillers are FDA-approved and made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally produced by the body. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be fully dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase if results need to be adjusted or reversed. At Bonness, patient safety is always our highest priority, and our clinical experience significantly reduces the risk of complications.

The difference comes down to product selection, volume, and technique:

Overdone filler results from using the wrong product for the tissue type (e.g., heavy filler in lips or tear troughs), injecting too frequently without allowing results to settle, or adding excessive volume that distorts natural facial proportions.

Natural-looking filler results from choosing the right product based on tissue type and movement, respecting natural anatomy, and using a low-and-slow approach. Conservative volume over time for balanced, harmonious results. Our injectors are committed to the latter, always!

Botox works by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles or lines caused by movement, like frown lines, forehead creases, and crow's feet. It does not add volume.

Dermal filler adds physical volume beneath the skin, filling in lost tissue, smoothing static lines (present even at rest), and restoring facial structure. Most patients benefit from both, used strategically together, which is why full facial balancing is so effective.

Absolutely, and in fact, combination approaches consistently produce the best results. At Bonness, we commonly pair filler with Botox for comprehensive facial balancing, Sculptra for long-term collagen stimulation, and PRF Gel Bio-Filler for natural regenerative enhancement. With the Bonness Filler Pass, you receive discounted pricing across all of these modalities, making it easy and affordable to build a complete injectable routine.

Discomfort is minimal for most patients. All Juvederm products contain lidocaine within the formulation itself, which numbs the treatment area as injection progresses. We also offer prescription-strength topical numbing cream, ice packs, and our Vibrata device to make your experience as comfortable as possible.
