Your face tells your story, and the natural changes that come with time do not have to rewrite it. Volume loss in the cheeks, deepening lines around the mouth, and thinning lips can all change how you look and feel, but these changes are not set in stone when the right treatment is available. Dermal fillers offer a way to restore fullness and smooth away creases without surgery, downtime, or a dramatic change in your appearance. The results look and feel natural, and the process is far simpler than most people expect.
At New Day Dental Medical Aesthetics, our med spa services are provided under the care of Dr. McKenzie Tucker, MD, a physician with advanced training in both emergency medicine and medical aesthetics. Together with award-winning Dr. Jordan Tucker, DDS, our team brings a thorough understanding of facial anatomy that allows us to deliver precise, balanced results. Whether you want to add subtle definition to your lips or restore volume that has gradually faded, we customize every treatment to match your unique goals.
What Dermal Fillers Can Do for You
Dermal fillers are injectable gels made from biocompatible materials that add volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours. Unlike Botox, which relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, fillers physically restore structure beneath the skin. This makes them especially effective for areas where volume has diminished over time or where you want more definition.
The FDA has approved dermal fillers for adults over the age of 21 for specific purposes, including treating moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles, augmenting the lips, cheeks, and chin, and softening nasolabial folds. According to the FDA, the longevity and effectiveness of results depend on the filler material chosen and the area where it is placed. Having a trained medical professional perform your injections is the single most important factor in achieving a safe and satisfying outcome.
Types of Fillers We Use
Not all fillers are the same. Each product is designed with a specific consistency, purpose, and longevity in mind. During your consultation, we select the right filler based on the treatment area, the degree of correction needed, and how long you want your results to last.
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
Hyaluronic acid is a substance your body already produces naturally, and it plays a key role in keeping skin hydrated and plump. HA-based fillers are the most widely used option and can treat everything from fine lip lines to deep nasolabial folds. Results typically last between six and twelve months, and one of the biggest advantages of HA fillers is that they can be dissolved if you are ever unhappy with the outcome.
Calcium Hydroxylapatite and Collagen Stimulators
For patients who need deeper correction or longer-lasting results, thicker formulations made from calcium hydroxylapatite or poly-L-lactic acid are excellent options. These fillers not only add immediate volume but also encourage your body to produce its own collagen over time. Results from collagen-stimulating fillers can last a year or longer, making them a great fit for cheek restoration and jawline contouring.
Treatment Areas for Dermal Fillers in Cary
One of the reasons fillers are so popular is their versatility. A single treatment session can address multiple concerns across different areas of the face, and results are visible right away. Here are some of the most common areas we treat at our Cary office:
- Lips: Adding volume, improving symmetry, and defining the lip border for a fuller, more balanced look
- Cheeks: Restoring youthful volume and lifting the midface for a refreshed, natural contour
- Nasolabial folds: Softening the lines that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth
- Marionette lines: Reducing the creases that pull down from the corners of the mouth toward the chin
- Chin and jawline: Adding definition and improving facial balance without surgery
- Under eyes: Reducing the appearance of hollowing and dark shadows beneath the lower eyelids
Every face is different, and we take the time to evaluate your anatomy and goals before recommending a treatment plan. Our approach focuses on enhancing what you already have rather than creating a look that feels overdone. You can see real results in our medical aesthetics photo gallery.
