By the time most people search for dermal fillers in Needham, they have seen thousands of examples online. The internet is full of filtered social media posts that look amazing and horror stories about results that look too dramatic. Modern patients are looking for real medical expertise in a crowded digital world. Most people want to look like themselves, only rested and refreshed.
At Dedham Medical Aesthetics, we use injectable fillers to support your natural facial features. These smooth, gel-like substances are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance your body already produces. These products replace the support that naturally fades as we age.
Dermal fillers are injectable gels that restore volume, smooth lines, and highlight your natural facial contours. At DMA, we use these to copy the youthful support of your bone and skin. This gives you a refreshed look that stays true to your original face.

Our Needham clients usually want to look like they just returned from a long, relaxing weekend. We focus on the shadows that appear as the face loses its natural padding. Adding volume to the cheeks or jawline removes the dark areas that make you look weary. This leaves the skin looking smooth and bright. While some people consider facial fat grafting or fat injections, HA fillers offer a non-surgical way to add volume with immediate results.
We look at your whole facial anatomy to keep your features in balance.
Every face is different, which is why we carry a wide variety of injectable dermal fillers. We choose the specific type of filler based on the thickness of your skin and the area we are treating.
The Juvederm family consists of several different hyaluronic acid fillers designed for specific tasks. For example, Voluma is thick and sturdy, making it perfect for adding volume to the cheeks. Volbella is much thinner, which allows us to smooth wrinkles around the mouth or add subtle hydration to the lips. Because these are ha fillers, they feel very natural under the skin and can be dissolved if needed.
Restylane is another collection of hyaluronic acid products known for their flexibility. We often use Restylane Kysse for the lips because it allows for a full range of expressions without feeling stiff. Other versions, like Restylane Lyft, provide the strong support needed to fix sagging skin along the jawline or to fill deep nasolabial folds.
Radiesse is unique because it is made of calcium hydroxylapatite. This is a firmer gel that provides immediate lift for deep wrinkles and frown lines. It also acts as a scaffold that encourages your body to produce its own collagen over time. It is an excellent choice for patients who want both an instant change and long-term improvements in skin thickness.
Sculptra is made of poly l lactic acid and works differently than traditional facial fillers. Instead of just filling a space, it works deep in the skin to jumpstart collagen production. We use this for patients who want a gradual, regenerative change. Over a few months, your skin naturally becomes thicker and firmer, creating a more youthful appearance that can last up to two years.
Modern beauty focuses on keeping your skin plump and strong for the long term. While hyaluronic acid fillers work immediately, others like poly l lactic acid (Sculptra) help your body build up its own collagen. Collagen production ensures your skin gets stronger and firmer on its own over several months. Whether we are treating deep wrinkles, crow's feet, or acne scars, we choose the type of filler that best suits your skin folds and goals.
Most adults in good health who want to refresh their appearance are great candidates for this outpatient procedure. We prioritize your safety and natural-looking results above everything else. You are an ideal fit if you want a subtle boost or have noticed sagging skin after weight loss.
We review your medical history and any medical conditions before you inject dermal fillers. You should wait if you have a skin breakout or are pregnant. If you have old facial fillers from other providers that have shifted, we can dissolve them to start fresh.
We start by watching how your face moves when you talk and smile. Most patients feel a tiny pinch at the injection site followed by a little bit of pressure. The dermal filler procedure is a very safe way to treat signs of aging like frown lines or nasolabial folds.
You will see some swelling before your final result shows up. Expect some puffiness for the first 24 hours, especially since lips tend to hold more water. We suggest avoiding normal activities like heavy workouts for one full day.
We recommend booking your treatment at least two weeks before any big events. While bruising and redness can happen, they are usually minor and fade quickly. Unlike surgery, you can return to your routine almost immediately.

Results usually stay for six months to two years. It depends on the areas treated, the type of filler, and other factors like your metabolism.
Puffiness happens when filler injections are placed in the wrong spot. We place filler deep near the bone to provide a natural lift.
Many patients combine these. This helps with volume loss and the fine lines or smile lines caused by facial expressions.
Most patients rate the pain a 2/10. We use numbing cream, and the injectable dermal fillers themselves contain lidocaine for comfort.
Hyaluronic acid (found in products like Juvederm) is naturally found in the body and is reversible. Calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse) is thicker and better for deeper structural support.
Yes. Clinical studies have shown that these medical procedure options are safe and effective for treating shallow contours and volume loss when performed by experts.
