Many of the wrinkles that develop on the face occur because of a loss of collagen that’s associated with aging or damage caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays from sunlight, air pollution, cigarette smoke, and other factors. With the festive season at hand, it’s only natural that you’ll want to put your best face forward, so many patients are seeking treatments to help them look their best for holiday parties and vacations. With this in mind, it’s common to wonder: If you want to enjoy the season to the fullest, can you have filler before going on holiday? Our Newtown, PA-based team explains what you should know about the benefits of these treatments and how to achieve optimal results.

Injectable facial fillers can be an ideal way of restoring smoother, less wrinkled skin if you are frustrated with pesky wrinkles or loss of facial contours. These injections are substances introduced beneath the surface to add plumpness or lift to thinning or deflated areas where creases and hollows have formed. Considering their versatility, they are a quick, simple way to prepare for the holidays—which is certainly appealing to anyone stressed by a busy schedule!

If you have a special holiday party or event coming up, be sure to schedule fillers at least two weeks in advance to allow plenty of time for any bruising or swelling to subside. The results last for six months or more, so if you get them done in December, you will enjoy the results well into the new year.

Fillers injected into the undereye area can help create a more alert appearance, while fillers such as VOLBELLA^® create a firmer, more youthful, and smoother appearance for the lips. VOLUMA^® is a thicker filler that can restore lifted, rounder cheeks for a more balanced face. Hyaluronic acid fillers such as these have the advantage of adding volume that is visible right away with minimal side effects and downtime
