What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore lost volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance facial contours for a refreshed, natural appearance. Most fillers, including JUVÉDERM, Restylane, and the RHA Collection, are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin that attracts and retains moisture to plump and hydrate treated areas. Others, like RADIESSE, use calcium hydroxylapatite to add immediate volume while also stimulating the body’s own collagen production over time. Because every face is different, fillers can be tailored to address specific concerns, from softening nasolabial folds and defining the jawline to enhancing lip shape and restoring cheek volume. At Melamed Weight & Wellness, all dermal fillers in Deerfield and North Shore are administered by Dr. Julia Melamed, ensuring results that are precise, balanced, and beautifully natural.

Your Dermal Filler Treatment With Melamed Weight & Wellness
Your journey for dermal fillers in Deerfield and North Shore begins with a one-on-one consultation, where Dr. Melamed evaluates your facial anatomy, listens to your goals, and recommends the filler best suited to your needs. On the day of treatment, a topical numbing cream may be applied to help keep you comfortable throughout the process.
Using precise injection techniques, Dr. Melamed carefully places the filler to restore volume, smooth lines, or enhance contours, checking your results in real time to ensure natural, balanced symmetry. Most treatments take 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the areas addressed, and you can return to your daily activities immediately afterward. Before you leave, you’ll receive personalized aftercare guidance to support healing and help you get the most out of your results.

JUVÉDERM
JUVÉDERM is a family of hyaluronic acid (HA)-based fillers that attract and retain moisture, instantly restoring volume and smoothness. Different formulas, such as JUVÉDERM ULTRA XC for lips, JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC for cheeks, and JUVÉDERM VOLUX XC for the jawline, allow precise, customizable enhancement. Because HA is naturally found in your skin, JUVÉDERM blends beautifully into facial tissue while offering a soft, supple feel.

RADIESSE
RADIESSE is made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Unlike HA-based fillers, RADIESSE not only adds immediate volume but also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production over time. This dual-action approach makes RADIESSE ideal for treating deeper folds, facial sculpting, and hand rejuvenation. It provides longer-lasting structural support, with results that can endure for a year or more.

Restylane
Restylane is another trusted HA filler, known for its versatility and ability to create both subtle and dramatic enhancements. Its patented XpresHAn Technology™ allows the gel to move with facial expressions, making it especially effective for dynamic areas like lips (Restylane Kysse) or cheeks (Restylane Contour). Each formulation offers a slightly different particle size and lift capacity, allowing precise tailoring to your facial anatomy.

RHA Collection
The RHA Collection is the first and only line of resilient hyaluronic acid fillers approved in the U.S. Designed to adapt to facial movement, RHA fillers mimic the natural HA found in your skin more closely than traditional fillers. This makes them an exceptional filler choice for dynamic areas, such as around the mouth and eyes, where expressions are constant. Discover the Melamed RHA collection to get a refined, natural look that holds up under movement without stiffness.

SKINVIVE by JUVÉDERM
SKINVIVE is a skin-quality booster, not a volumizer. It uses microdroplets of hyaluronic acid to increase hydration and improve the smoothness and luminosity of the cheeks. Instead of lifting or plumping, SKINVIVE enhances the skin’s texture from within, giving you a healthy, refreshed glow. It’s ideal for patients who want visible radiance without changing facial contours.

Testimonials
I went visited Dr. Melamed for lip filler a few months back. I was a bit nervous because I’ve never gotten any sort of injections, and let me just say I am THRILLED with my results. I have never felt more confident in my life. My lips look full and big, but very natural. Dr. Melamed and her team were extremely kind and made me feel very comfortable. I will 100 percent be back.

Dermal Fillers FAQs
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dermal Fillers?
Most healthy adults looking to restore volume, smooth lines, or enhance facial contours are good candidates for dermal fillers. During your consultation, Dr. Melamed will review your medical history and aesthetic goals to determine which filler, or combination of fillers, best suits your needs. Certain conditions or allergies may affect eligibility, which is why every treatment begins with a thorough, physician-led evaluation.
How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?
The longevity of dermal fillers depends on the product used, the area treated, and your body’s metabolism. In general, hyaluronic acid fillers, such as JUVÉDERM, Restylane, and the RHA Collection, can last anywhere from 6 to 24 months. RADIESSE, which stimulates collagen, tends to offer longer-lasting results, often 12 to 24 months or more.
Is There Any Downtime After Dermal Filler Treatment?
Dermal fillers require little to no downtime, allowing most patients to return to their normal routine the same day. You may notice mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a few days. Dr. Melamed will provide personalized aftercare instructions to support healing and help you achieve the best possible results.
Will I Look Overfilled or Unnatural?
Not at Melamed Weight & Wellness. All dermal filler treatments are performed by a physician led directly by Dr. Julia Melamed, a triple board-certified physician, with an artful approach to aesthetics. You’ll never be overfilled or “pillow-faced.” The goal is to restore balance and youthful volume while maintaining your natural facial structure and expression.
Can Dermal Fillers Be Combined With Other Treatments?
Yes, dermal fillers can often be combined with other treatments, such as BOTOX® or other neuromodulators, for a more comprehensive rejuvenation. While fillers restore volume and smooth static lines, neuromodulators target dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement, so pairing them can address multiple signs of aging at once. Dr. Melamed will assess your facial anatomy and goals during your consultation to recommend the right combination of treatments for balanced, natural-looking results.
