Understanding Dermal Fillers
The Science Behind Restoring Volume and Smoothness
Dermal Fillers in Calgary: What They Are & How They Work
Dermal fillers are injectable gels, often made of hyaluronic acid, that restore lost volume and smooth out static wrinkles. They work by attracting and holding moisture in the skin, which plumps and supports your facial structure for a more youthful look.

Common Treatment Areas
Popular Treatment Areas in Calgary
Rejuvenate Your Look From Top to Bottom
Our expert injectors can use dermal fillers to treat a variety of areas to restore volume and contour. Popular areas include the cheeks, lips, chin, jawline, and the lines around the mouth and nose.
Lips (Natural Volume & Shape)
Enhance shape, add volume, or correct asymmetry. Lip filler remains our most requested treatment for natural-looking fullness. If prone to cold sores, antiviral prophylaxis (e.g., as prescribed) starts 1-2 days before lip filler and continues a few days after to reduce outbreak risk.
Cheeks/Midface Lift
Restore youthful volume to hollow cheeks. This treatment lifts your entire midface for a refreshed appearance.
Under-Eye/Tear Trough Filler
Reduce dark circles and hollows beneath your eyes with careful, precise injections.
Jawline & Chin Contouring
Define your profile with strategic facial contouring along the jaw and chin. Common male goals include straighter jawline/chin projection with conservative midface, and techniques/ratios differ by sex for natural outcomes.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty (Advanced Area)
Minor nose adjustments without surgery — perfect for small bumps or asymmetries. These are advanced, higher-risk areas treated only by senior injectors, often with ultrasound and conservative volumes.
Temples, Nasolabial/Marionette Lines
Temple filler restores volume lost with aging, creating a more youthful face shape. Temples are advanced, higher-risk areas treated only by senior injectors, often with ultrasound and conservative volumes. Soften nasolabial folds running from nose to mouth corners and marionette lines from mouth corners downward.
Hands & Earlobe Rejuvenation
Yes, hands rejuvenation and earlobe rejuvenation are possible! Restore volume to aging hands and repair stretched earlobes.
Safety and Approval
Your Well-Being Is Our Top Priority
We exclusively use Health Canada-approved fillers from trusted brands like Restylane, Juvéderm, and Teosyal. These products have undergone rigorous testing to ensure they are safe and effective for cosmetic use.
Health Products Only
All our products meet strict Health Canada approval standards. We never use unauthorized or grey-market fillers.
Cannula vs Needle; Injections in High-Risk Zones
We use both cannula and traditional needle techniques, depending on the treatment area. High-risk zones (nose, glabella, temple) benefit from ultrasound for mapping vessels, and it's used for complication management if needed.
Vascular Occlusion Hyaluronidase
Our vascular occlusion protocols include immediate steps: stop injections, hyaluronidase, warmth/massage, urgent assessment; ophthalmology referral if vision changes. Emergency supplies are always available.
CPSA/CRNA NP/MD Oversight
We follow all guidelines from the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) and College of Registered Nurses of Alberta (CRNA). In Alberta an NP/MD must assess/authorize treatment; RNs inject under medical directive and within CPSA/CRNA standards.

(48 Hours)
Do:
Sleep elevated
Elevating the head minimizes swelling, especially for facial fillers.
Cold compresses:
The immediate use of cold compresses helps reduce swelling and bruising by constricting blood vessels.
Avoid makeup 12-24 hrs:
This is to prevent infection at the injection sites.
Antiviral plan
This is a crucial step for patients prone to cold sores, as the injection can trigger an outbreak.
Don't:
Alcohol/sauna/hot yoga/strenuous exercise:
These activities increase blood flow and body temperature, which can exacerbate swelling and bruising.
Facials or dental work
Pressure on the treated area from these activities can displace the filler before it has settled.
Massage
Similar to facials, any massage or pressure can move the filler and compromise the result.
NSAIDs/fish oil/vit E
These are blood thinners that can increase the risk of bruising at the injection sites.
Avoid aspirin, NSAIDs, fish oil, vitamin E, alcohol 24-48 hours pre/post if medically appropriate.
