When it comes to non-surgical facial rejuvenation, dermal fillers are the gold standard. Whether you’re aiming for plumper lips, more sculpted cheeks, or a refreshed under-eye area, fillers offer a customizable, minimally invasive solution with instant results.


But not all fillers—or results—are created equal. That’s why our experts at Aesthetically Pleasing Medspa in St. Louis created this guide to help you understand your options and achieve your aesthetic goals confidently.



✨ What Are Dermal Fillers?



Dermal fillers are gel-like substances—most commonly made with hyaluronic acid (HA)—that are injected beneath the skin to restore volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours.



Most Popular Uses:



  • 💋 Lips: Add volume, definition, or correct asymmetry.

  • 😊 Cheeks: Lift and contour the mid-face.

  • 👁️ Under-eyes: Reduce hollowness and tired appearance.

  • 💭 Smile lines & marionette lines: Soften deep creases around the mouth.

  • 🖐️ Hands & jawline: Restore youthful fullness.



💡 Types of Fillers We Use



At Aesthetically Pleasing, we use trusted, FDA-approved brands including:


  • Juvederm® Collection

  • Restylane® Collection

  • Revanesse® Versa™



Each is chosen based on your skin type, desired outcome, and facial anatomy.



💋 Lip Fillers: For the Perfect Pout



Whether you want a subtle hydration boost or that full, voluminous look, lip fillers can:


  • Define the cupid’s bow

  • Enhance lip symmetry

  • Add natural-looking volume

  • Reduce smoker’s lines



Pro tip: Ask us about a lip flip for an added enhancement using neurotoxins!



🪄 Cheek Fillers: Sculpt, Lift & Refresh



Loss of mid-face volume is a common sign of aging. Cheek fillers:


  • Restore youthful contour

  • Lift the lower face naturally

  • Improve facial symmetry



And yes—they can even improve the appearance of nasolabial folds without injecting directly into the lines!



🕒 How Long Do Results Last?



Most hyaluronic acid fillers last 6 to 18 months, depending on:


  • The product used

  • Treatment area

  • Your body’s metabolism



We’ll help create a maintenance plan tailored to you.



😌 Does It Hurt?


We use topical numbing and advanced injection techniques for maximum comfort. Most clients report only minor pressure or pinching.



🛑 Is There Downtime?


You may experience:


  • Mild swelling or bruising (resolves in a few days)

  • Tenderness at injection sites



💡 Most clients return to daily activities immediately.
