Fillers come with a variety of benefits, making them a go-to for facial rejuvenation. With fillers, you can see results right away, and there's no downtime — you can get back to your day immediately after the treatment. They're also highly customizable, which means Dr. Stempfle can adjust the treatment to match your unique facial structure and aesthetic goals, ensuring your results look natural and suit you perfectly.
The first step begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Stempfle. During this meeting, she will discuss your aesthetic goals, assess your facial structure, and recommend the best filler type for you. This step ensures that the treatment aligns with your expectations and provides the most natural results.
After tailoring a treatment plan to your specific needs, Dr. Stempfle will proceed with the filler application.

Using a fine needle, Dr. Stempfle will inject the filler beneath the skin, carefully sculpting the areas to achieve the desired effect.
Soon after the injections, you'll notice a boost in volume. The results from fillers are immediate, but they will continue to settle and improve in the days following the treatment. You can schedule additional touch-up visits with Dr. Stempfle to maintain your results.

The longevity of fillers varies depending on the type used and the area treated, but generally, results can last from six months to two years.

Dr. Stempfle can discuss the expected duration of your specific filler during your consultation and recommend a maintenance plan to keep your results looking fresh.
One of the advantages of fillers is that there's little to no downtime required. Most patients return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. You might experience some redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects are typically mild and resolve within a few days. Dr. Stempfle will provide you with specific aftercare instructions to help minimize any discomfort and ensure a quick recovery.

During your consultation, Dr. Stempfle can discuss the reversibility of your chosen filler and explain how this process works, so you can you feel confident and informed about your treatment choice.
