How Dermal Fillers Restore Facial Volume and Contour
A youthful face is full of smooth contours, defined angles, and soft volume in all the right places. But as we age, those natural features begin to change. What was once plump and firm can become hollow, flat, or sagging due to collagen loss, fat redistribution, and declining skin elasticity. Fortunately, dermal fillers offer a safe, nonsurgical way to restore that lost volume—and the confidence that comes with it.
At Ageless Aesthetics, the largest medical spa in Indianapolis with three locations, we specialize in precise and natural-looking filler results. Our award-winning team of injectors uses advanced techniques and the latest products to lift, smooth, and sculpt the face—all while prioritizing patient safety and satisfaction.
Why We Lose Facial Volume Over Time
Starting as early as your late 20s or early 30s, the body’s collagen production begins to slow. This decline affects the structure and elasticity of the skin, and it’s accompanied by a natural reduction in fat and bone density beneath the skin. As these deep support structures shift, the outer appearance changes as well.
Common signs of volume loss include:
- Flattened cheeks
- Hollow temples
- Under-eye shadowing or hollowness
- Deepening of smile lines or marionette lines
- Softening of the jawline and chin
These structural changes can make the face appear tired or aged—even when you feel vibrant and well-rested.
What Dermal Fillers Are Made Of
Most of the fillers we use at Ageless Aesthetics are made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring sugar molecule found in the skin. HA attracts water and keeps tissues hydrated, which helps to restore smoothness and plumpness when injected. Popular HA-based fillers include brands like Juvederm® and Restylane®, each with various formulations for different treatment areas.
In addition to hyaluronic acid fillers, we also offer biostimulant fillers, such as Radiesse® and Sculptra®. These work a little differently. Instead of adding immediate volume, they stimulate the body’s own collagen production for gradual, longer-lasting improvement.
How Dermal Fillers Restore Youthful Contours
Dermal fillers are not just for smoothing out wrinkles. With the right technique, they can rebuild structure, lift sagging areas, and enhance symmetry. At Ageless Aesthetics, we use a strategic approach to restore the face’s natural “triangle of youth”—full cheeks, a defined jawline, and balanced facial proportions.
Here are a few ways we use fillers to refresh and contour the face:
Cheeks
By restoring volume to the midface, cheek fillers help support the skin and reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds below. They also enhance cheekbone definition and create a more sculpted profile.
Temples
Loss of volume in the temples is often overlooked but can lead to an aged, hollowed appearance. Carefully placed filler in this area softens the transition between the forehead and the cheekbone.
Under-Eyes
Filler in the tear trough area reduces hollowness and shadows that contribute to a tired look. With a delicate touch, we can brighten the eyes and make the face appear more refreshed.
Lips
Dermal fillers can restore lip volume lost with age or subtly enhance the shape and definition. We tailor the result to your aesthetic—whether it’s subtle hydration or noticeable volume.
Chin and Jawline
Improving projection in the chin or definition along the jawline can dramatically enhance overall facial balance. These treatments are especially popular among patients looking for a more structured profile.
The Treatment Experience at Ageless Aesthetics
Our process begins with an in-depth consultation. We take the time to listen to your concerns, assess your facial anatomy, and design a customized treatment plan. Every provider on our team participates in ongoing education and has earned recognition for injection safety and artistry.
The treatment itself is quick—usually 30 to 60 minutes—and typically involves little to no downtime. A topical anesthetic is applied beforehand to ensure comfort, and our injectors use advanced techniques and tools (like microcannulas) to minimize bruising or swelling.
After the procedure, you may experience mild tenderness, swelling, or minor bruising, which typically resolves within a few days. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
How Long Do Results Last?
The longevity of dermal fillers depends on the product used, the area treated, and your body’s metabolism. In general:
- Lip fillers may last 6 to 9 months
- Cheek and midface fillers often last 12 to 18 months
- Biostimulant fillers can last 18 to 24 months or longer due to ongoing collagen stimulation
We recommend maintenance appointments to keep results fresh and balanced over time. Because hyaluronic acid fillers are reversible, they also offer peace of mind for first-time patients.
The Importance of Choosing the Right Injector
Dermal filler treatments are a blend of science and artistry. That’s why choosing an experienced, highly trained injector is critical—not just for great results, but for your safety. At Ageless Aesthetics, our injectors have won numerous awards and are frequently recognized for their aesthetic technique and patient care. As a woman-owned practice, we are deeply committed to education, innovation, and ethical beauty.
