Dermal fillers are substances injected under the skin which temporarily smooth out facial lines and wrinkles by adding volume lost during the aging process. In essence, dermal fillers fill in wrinkles, lines and folds from the inside out, resulting in a smoother and more youthful appearance.

• Areas commonly treated include the smile lines between the nose and mouth, small lines around the mouth, and frown lines between the eyes.
• The treatment takes about an hour and results are immediate.
• Results last for up to 6 months, after which the injected substance gradually breaks down and is naturally absorbed by your body. Periodic touch-ups provide long lasting results.
• Dr. Gross uses Captique, CosmoDerm and CosmpoPlast, Restylane and Hylaform, all of which are FDA approved and are safe for most people.
