As you age, it’s normal for your face to lose volume, for wrinkles and lines to begin to appear, and for your lips to become less plump. But while it may be normal, sometimes you may want a little boost to help you look and feel fresh and youthful. Dermal fillers are products that can be used to help reverse some of the signs of aging and help you enhance some of your facial features.
At Legacy Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, proudly serving Exton, Lancaster, and Harrisburg, PA, we want you to always look and feel your best. Our world-class plastic surgeons, Dr. Paul Kim and Dr. Gary Wingate, offer advanced dermal filler and lip filler treatments tailored to your unique needs. With decades of experience and recognition as “Top Docs,” they bring artistry and precision to every injectable treatment, ensuring natural, youthful results.
Dermal fillers are injectables that restore lost volume, smooth away wrinkles, and refine facial contours. These versatile anti-aging fillers are formulated with substances like hyaluronic acid, which not only fills lost volume in the skin but also promotes hydration. For those seeking a refreshed, youthful look, dermal fillers offer a versatile and non-invasive option.
Injectable fillers work by delivering gel-like substances beneath the skin, where they can plump up thin lips, soften facial creases, or enhance shallow contours. These fillers add immediate volume, lasting several months before being naturally broken down by the body.

Achieving beautiful results with dermal fillers is just the beginning—maintaining them requires thoughtful care and healthy habits. With proper aftercare, your results can remain vibrant and long-lasting.
Use high-quality products like gentle cleansers, hydrating moisturizers, and sunscreen. A consistent regimen helps maintain your skin’s health, prolonging the effects of your dermal fillers and keeping your complexion radiant.
Drink water and eat water-rich foods to maintain skin elasticity. Proper hydration plumps the skin from within, supporting the longevity of your filler results and promoting a youthful glow.
Regular touch-ups preserve your results. Your provider will recommend an ideal schedule to maintain volume and smoothness, ensuring your enhancements remain natural and consistent.
Protect your skin with SPF 30+ sunscreen. UV rays can break down fillers more quickly, so wearing sunscreen daily helps prevent premature aging and maintains your skin’s smooth, even tone.
Eat a balanced diet and avoid smoking to maintain skin health. A diet rich in antioxidants, combined with healthy habits, supports collagen production, enhances skin elasticity, and extends the life of your injectable treatments.
By following these best practices, you’ll extend the life of your dermal fillers and keep your skin looking youthful and refreshed. Consistency and care are key to preserving your radiant appearance.
