Restore. Contour. Refresh

Volume. Structure. Precision

Aging doesn't just add lines - it subtracts volume. The temples thin. The cheeks flatten. The jawline softens. Dermal fillers restore what time quietly takes away.

In our office, filler placement is a medical procedure - approached with anatomical expertise, a conservative hand, and zero tolerance for the "overfilled" look.

What are Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable gels - most commonly hyaluronic acid (HA) - that restore volume, smooth contours, and enhance facial structure. Unlike botulinum toxin, which relaxes muscles, fillers add - lifting, plumping, and defining with immediate, visible results.

FDA-approved brands used may include: Juvederm®, Restylane®, Sculptra®, and Radiesse® - selected based on the specific treatment area and patient anatomy.

What are commonly treated areas?

· Cheeks and midface volume restoration

· Lip volume and definition

· Jawline definition and contouring

· Chin projection

· Temple hollowing

The Physician Difference in Filler Placement

Filler complications - vascular occlusion, asymmetry, tissue necrosis - are rare but real. They are also far less likely when the injector has deep anatomical knowledge and immediate access to reversal agents.

Dr. Goldstein's medical training means he understands the facial vasculature the way a surgeon does - not the way a technician does. That knowledge changes what he sees before the needle is placed.

What to Expect

Consultation first - always. Dr. Goldstein will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your goals, and walk you through exactly what a treatment plan would involve before any decisions are made.

Treatment time typically ranges from 30-60 minutes depending on areas treated. A topical numbing agent is applied beforehand; most HA fillers also contain built-in lidocaine for added comfort.

Results are visible immediately, with final results settling over 1-2 weeks as swelling resolves. Duration varies by product and area - typically 6-18 months.

Mild swelling or bruising is common and resolves within days. Most patients return to normal activities right away.
