The Benefits of Combining Dermal Fillers with Surgical Procedures

While dermal fillers are an excellent option for adding volume and smoothing out wrinkles, some patients may benefit from combining fillers with surgical procedures for even more comprehensive results. At the Physician’s Institute, we specialize in both non-surgical and surgical facial rejuvenation, offering customized solutions to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Dermal fillers are injectable substances that add volume and reduce the appearance of wrinkles by restoring fullness to areas that have lost volume over time. They are particularly effective for treating the cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds. However, for patients with more advanced signs of aging, dermal fillers can be combined with surgical procedures to enhance and maintain their results.

Combining Treatments

For patients with sagging skin, deep wrinkles, or significant volume loss, surgical options such as facelifts, brow lifts, or eyelid surgery may be more appropriate. By combining these surgeries with dermal fillers, patients can achieve optimal results, maintaining their youthful appearance long after surgery. Dermal fillers can:

  • Enhance the volume and contouring achieved through surgery.
  • Smooth areas that surgery may not fully address, like fine lines around the mouth.
  • Prolong the effects of facial rejuvenation procedures.

COMMON COMBINATION PROCEDURES:

Facelifts + Dermal Fillers: Use fillers to maintain volume and enhance the lift provided by surgery.

Eyelid Surgery + Dermal Fillers: Add subtle volume to the under-eye area for a more refreshed appearance.

Brow Lifts + Dermal Fillers: Combine treatments to achieve a balanced, youthful look.
