Smooth lines and restore facial volume naturally
Aging doesn’t have to mean giving up a youthful, lifted look.
As facial fat, collagen, and elasticity naturally decrease, signs of aging, such as wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and volume loss, can become more visible. Dermal fillers offer a safe and effective way to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and bring harmony back to your facial features with no surgery or lengthy recovery.
At Metro Medspa in St. Louis, we specialize in injectable dermal fillers for natural-looking results that reflect you, just refreshed. Whether you want to soften smile lines, lift your cheeks, define your jawline, or add subtle shape to your lips, our providers tailor every treatment using FDA-approved filler products designed to work with your unique facial structure. Our approach focuses on balance, proportion, and results that move with you.
Dermal fillers are soft-gel injectables that are placed right under the skin to restore age-related volume loss, making your skin appear fuller, plumper, and younger-looking.
The most commonly used fillers consist of hyaluronic acid – a naturally occurring compound that adds elasticity, hydration, and volume to your skin. Some examples of HA fillers include Restylane or Revance RHA fillers.
Dermal fillers do not require any extensive preparation, but there are some things you can do to better prepare for the treatment:
We begin by cleaning the area(s) being injected. The next step is to inject the filler under your skin using a very fine needle or blunt tip cannula. Each injection takes just a few minutes, and after each injection, we will gently massage the injection site to ensure proper distribution and integration of the filler.
The entire treatment can take anywhere between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the area of concern and the amount of filler to be injected. Although the procedure is virtually painless, we might choose to apply a topical numbing agent to reduce any discomfort.
Aging, along with diminishing collagen and elastin production, can cause certain cellular changes in your skin, resulting in the loss of facial volume and elasticity and the formation of common signs of aging, such as:

However, only a well-trained professional can help you determine whether dermal fillers are for you or not. Our team takes the time to learn about your goals and medical history to ensure you are matched with the safest and most effective treatments tailored to your needs.
Some people might experience mild swelling and bruising at the injection site, which usually subsides within a day or two.
You can use a cold compress or an ice pack to help minimize swelling and discomfort after the procedure.
Make sure to avoid direct sun exposure, heavy workouts, and alcohol as they increase the risk of post-treatment swelling at the injection sites.
The initial results of dermal fillers can be seen almost immediately after the treatment; however, the final results can be seen as soon as the swelling and redness go down.
The longevity of dermal fillers can vary depending on the type of filler, the amount of filler injected, as well as the treated area. Typically, fillers can last anywhere between 6 to 12 months. That’s why we recommend you schedule follow-up sessions to keep your skin smooth, wrinkle-free, and younger-looking for a long time.
However, only a certified and well-trained injector can help you achieve optimal results safely. For this reason, the expert injectors at Metro MedSpa, St. Louis, MO, perform every procedure meticulously.
