Topical anesthetic is used to numb the area and then the fillers are carefully measured and injected into the area.
Expectations
You will be able to notice the change almost immediately after receiving the filler injections. There is a slight chance of bruising and swelling but that is to be expected due to constant pricking of the skin. This will subside a few days following the procedure. There is also no downtime or rest attached to the treatment so you can go back to your routine right away although it is always recommended that you take at least a day off after any treatment and avoid exercise or strenuous activity.
Fat Fillers
This treatment comes under an out-patient procedure and must be performed by a medical personnel due to its general or local anesthetic requirement and there is also a 2 weeks downtime afterwards which depends on the amount of liposuction required.
Results
Thicker the filler and deeper its injection, longer the effects will be (it is a general rule but not always the case). It also depends on the product quality and he/she who performs the procedure. The treatment is also not forever, no matter the filler, you will have to repeat the treatment to maintain the effect.
Some fillers last longer than the others. Non-synthetic fillers such as Hyaluronic Acid lasts for about 6-18 months and are the most commonly used temporary options out there. Synthetic fillers on the other hand last a lot longer due to the body not absorbing the substance but the main issue regarding these is to be content with your choice.
Fat injections are the most unpredictable of them all and their lasting time is indefinite. Usually an overfill is performed which results in a fuller look initially which gradually settles and projects a more natural look.
