Is Dermal Fillers For You?
The body’s collagen production rate decreases as we age, resulting in reduced skin smoothness and elasticity. When collagen stores drop, skin hydration goes down while the appearance of fine lines and sagging skin becomes more obvious.
Dermal fillers are one of the most sought-after solutions today for restoring a youthful glow. These fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that the body produces to maintain joint lubrication and skin plumpness, thereby providing a hydrated and youthful look. Dermal fillers are used to restore fine lines, wrinkles and overall improve the appearance of sagging skin.
Our skilled aestheticians at Canada MedLaser utilize their extensive experience to perform dermal filler treatments that deliver noticeable and natural-looking results instantaneously.

Types Of Dermal Fillers Treatments At Canada MedLaser
At Canada MedLaser, we proudly offer the best dermal filler injectables. Fillers with a proven track record give us a range of facial contour and skin health solutions and beauty enhancement.
While we have Botox and Dysport to target facial wrinkles, we also offer Juvederm, Revanesse, and Stylage to target the following areas:
Lip fillers are one of the most popular dermal filler treatments which help thoroughly enhance lip volume and correct lip shape.
This is a non-invasive approach to improve chin and jawline structure by either softening or emphasizing the jawline to balance facial proportions.
Improve lift and volume on your cheeks to enhance facial contours and to give a plump and youthful appearance.
Say goodbye to the deep “smile lines”, medically referred to as the nasolabial fold. Dermal fillers work to increase volume in this area to produce a much younger appearance.
Marionette lines or melomental folds are those lines that run deep from the corners of your mouth down to your chin. Using fillers to add volume to these deep creases deliver immediate and visible results, making you look much younger and refreshed.
Looking tired because of dark circles under your eyes, no matter how well you sleep? We’ve got the exact solution for you without the need to undergo surgery.
Benefits
Reverse the effects of aging
By administering filler in areas such as the jawline, temples, cheeks, and under eyes, the filler is often used to achieve a “mini-facelift” effect and turn back time.
Hydration from within
Because filler is composed of hyaluronic acid, patients report noticing a dewy appearance and more hydration over time.
Semi-permanent solution
Dermal filler is a semi-permanent solution, with results lasting between 6-24 months, depending on the area of concern and repeated touch-up treatments. The effects of dermal filler may be reversed in as little as one-week post-treatment if the patient wishes to do so with a diluting liquid, referred to as hyaluronidase.
Preparation & Aftercare

- Bruising
The results of your dermal fillers will also be dependent on the after care you provide. Kindly read the following to ensure recovery and long-lasting results:

Juvéderm produces lip fillers for Toronto residents which consist of hyaluronic acid rather than collagen to plump up lip volume. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar natural to your body. Because hyaluronic acid is the active ingredient in Juvéderm lip fillers, Toronto patients are not required to have an allergy test before lip injections. Juvederm is a smooth gel lip filler which can be used to increase fullness around your mouth and smooth away wrinkles quickly. With our Juvederm lip injections, Toronto patients can experience natural and smooth results. Juvederm can restore natural contours and smooth away unwanted wrinkles from your verticle lip lines to your smile lines. It can also restore your natural lip fullness absorbed by the aging process. Juvederm has lidocaine to improve comfort during your lip injections in Toronto. A key benefit of Juvéderm lip injections for Toronto residents is the results are longer lasting than other lip fillers by Toronto surgeons including collagen and transfered fat. Juvéderm has long been one of the more popular lip fillers in Toronto. It’s a versatile clear gel which uses are more than lip injections. Juvederm is also great for filling out facial wrinkles and facial folds. It’s bio-degradable and almost identical to the hyaluronic acid that’s found naturally in your body
The Revanesse family of dermal fillers is a collection of injectable fillers which we use to bring a youthful appearance to your whole face. This Canadian dermal filler line is designed to:
-Smooth your lines and wrinkles
-Restore fullness and volume
-Revive facial contours and shape
-Nourish and hydrate your skin
The Revanesse family of dermal fillers has combined the latest developments in cross-linking technology, delivering high quality, safe, and enduring dermal fillers. The Revanesse dermal filler line employs the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid offered in addition to the revitalizing properties of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid.
Your lips are skin comprised of three layers, subcutaneous, the dermis, and the epidermis. The epidermis is the outside layer of the skin containing skin cells which regenerate continually. The dermis is the skin’s middle layer which holds elastin and collagen. Elastin provides flexibility and strength while collagen provides skin structure and support. The deepest layer is beneath the dermis and is subcutaneous. This layer supports both skin layers above. Hyaluronic acid is found in each layer, retaining moisture to keep the lips hydrated. Younger skin regenerates skin cells rapidly and regularly, but with older skin, the process slows down significantly. As the regeneration begins to slow down, the skin produces less hyaluronic acid, elastin, and collagen which will cause the lips to thin. Combine this with sun exposure, poor diet, and stress and the aging process is accelerated. Revanesse products add hyaluronic acid back to your lips, restoring needed volume and flattening wrinkles and lines. These lip fillers integrate into the skin tissue naturally and will allow vital nutrients to pass through the skin.
Stylage dermal fillers are designed for treatment into each dermal layer to sustain various cosmetic applications. The injectables are defined by two important parameters, elasticity, and viscosity.
The elasticity of the injectable gel is determined by the severity of the skin problem; lower elasticity for finer and superficial lines and wrinkles; higher elasticity for deeper wrinkles in the thicker skin.
The viscosity or thickness of each injectable gel is modified to match the density of the tissue to be corrected which results in a long-lasting cosmetic enhancement.
This versatile range allows us to optimize the cosmetic effect for you in a more tailored approach.
Canada MedLaser Clinics use only the most recognized and optimal injectables for lip filler procedures. These well tested and proven dermal fillers are excellent for delivering sensual plump lips. Juvederm has a unique quality which makes it our go-to-injectable for lip fillers.
With our expert injectors, we go to the greatest lengths to ensure we deliver the results you expect after consultation. Results which give you plump lips with a natural and attractive appearance.
We find that dermal fillers metabolize faster in the lips due to their constant activity of eating, drinking, and talking. Your lip filler outcomes can last from six to 18 months.
Dermal fillers procedure includes the following steps:
FACIAL ASSESSMENT AND MAPPING
Your Medical Aesthetician will assess your skin tone and facial appearance, and examine the areas of your face to be enhanced if you choose to utilize dermal fillers.
We may mark strategic points on your face as the appropriate injection sites for the dermal filler. We may also take photographs of the treatment areas.
CLEANSING AND ANESTHETIZING
We will sanitize the treatment sites with an antibacterial solution.
The use of ice packs, topical anesthetic creams, or over the counter pain medication before injections will reduce discomfort during injections. While not painless, the injections are not intolerable.
THE INJECTIONS
Injections take only a few moments per injection site. The process includes:
Injecting
Massaging
Evaluating results
Adding filler as needed.
Treatment areas and the number of injections will determine the duration of the dermal fillers procedure. The treatment time ranges from fifteen minutes to an hour.
CLEAN UP AND RECOVERY
When we are happy with the results, we will remove all markings. An ice pack may be necessary to reduce swelling and discomfort. Treatment areas may feel tender for a couple of days, but medication for pain is seldom necessary.
Recovery for Dermal Fillers
Dermal Filler recovery varies from patient to patient and from dermal filler to dermal filler. You can resume many activities immediately, but we recommend you avoid intense physical activity for the first 24-48 hours to minimize bruising and swelling. Be sure to discuss your specific recovery plan with us before your dermal filler injections.
Your appearance after treatment with any dermal filler may include:
-An over-filled look to treatment area
-Mild to severe swelling or bruising
-Numbness or redness
-Palpable lumps at the injection sites and Hives.
Avoid salty food before and after the injections. Natural lip fillers are hyaluronic acids that absorb moisture. Avoid all anti-inflammatory products the week before your lip injections schedule because they can increase bruising. Drink plenty of water with lemon for a few hours after your lip injections because Lemon is a natural diuretic. Sleep with your head elevated for one night after lip injections. Do not look at yourself in the mirror the next day until you have applied ice packs to the treatment areas, no matter how good the results were after the injections and no matter how minimal the injection performed.
And if you happen to catch a glimpse, don’t freak out. Apply ice for about a half hour, and the swelling will go down before leaving the house. But if you are not satisfied with your larger lips and are afraid that you have made a mistake, don’t worry. Your healthcare provider can reverse the results by flushing out the lip filler with a hyaluronidase that will dissolve the filler naturally. So when you consider lip injections, don’t think about the bad results you have seen with friends or celebrities, but rather consider the many great results you haven’t noticed because of the subtle lip enhancements these patients have received.
Side effects of hyaluronic acid lip fillers are minor and temporary. They may include: Tenderness and redness at the site of the injection Bruising and Swelling Bleeding in treated areas.
More serious side effects from lip fillers or risks may include:
- Prolonged and severe bruising or swelling lasting up to 10 days Infection.
- Asymmetrical lips Redness, swelling, or itching around the lips caused by an allergic reaction.
- Stiffening, Scarring, or ulceration of the lip.
- Tissue loss due to injection into a blood vessel.
If you develop a fever or experience extreme swelling, you should call a doctor immediately.
Lip fillers injected by a highly trained medical injector are a quick way to provide fuller lips. These minimally invasive treatments can also treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles, including smoothing marionette lines around the mouth. Juvéderm products and others are temporary hyaluronic acid lip fillers. Hyaluronic acid is a popular substance with Cosmetic Medical professionals as it is a naturally occurring ingredient in the skin that is efficient for retaining moisture and softness and adding volume.
At Canada MedLaser Clinics, we tailor any lip injections for your desired outcome. These procedures are quick and non-invasive, with your healthcare expert injecting lip fillers in and around your lips. We may suggest numbing injection areas for your added comfort. After lip injections, it’s important not to put pressure on the lips so that the treatment can settle evenly. You will experience results instantly, but swelling may occur soon after injections and take a few days to subside. You should see some results immediately, but remember that some swelling is involved.
During a consultation, we will discuss your desired outcome, administer a medical exam, and discuss your options. They will go over all facets of how we do lip injections, including the risks, costs, benefits, and techniques.
Some slight bleeding and bruising at the site of injection is expected and normal. These bruises should fade after five to seven days. It is important to have an experienced injector perform the procedure for optimal, safe results.
Many lip fillers have lidocaine built into the formula. You can also choose to have your lips numbed before lip injections with an anesthetic cream or nerve block. The injector can numb your lips with an injection into the gums ( like a dentist), or you can opt for a topical numbing cream.
Probably none because there’s almost no downtime. Our lip injections take about twenty minutes, and the numbing will start to wear off after another 15 minutes. You can return to your daily life afterward but shouldn’t make any big plans for at least three days in case you bruise.
You should see the results immediately. Your lips will swell initially, but you’ll see the effects of lip fillers quickly. After 24 hours your lips will settle, and the swelling will subside. Then your lips and your facial beauty will be enhanced for the next few months.
No, lip injections are not permanent, but if you allow your injector to schedule a series of lip injections, you can experience natural-looking full lips indefinitely. By stacking lip injections, not only can you maintain enhanced lips, but natural HA production may take effect, and fewer injections may be needed.
You can erase the effects of HA fillers if you don’t like how your lips look after lip injections. Because hyaluronic acid is not permanent, your healthcare professional can inject an enzyme called hyaluronidase. The enzyme will dissolve the lip filler in five minutes if you’re unhappy with the results.
No, you can choose the areas of your lips where you’d like the focus to be. Whether you want to do both lips, just the bottom lip, or the middle of the top lip, you can treat it wherever you and your injector decide will be best for your facial beauty.
When patients decide to stop getting lip injections, their lips return to their original state. The lips will not turn into wrinkly, sagging skin bags as some assert. However, the HA lip fillers injected into your lips have been clinically proven to promote more HA production at the injection sites so that the lips could remain a bit larger naturally.
After lip fillers are placed, it takes time for the injection sites to heal and the lip fillers to settle to minimize the risk of infection and any movement of the lip filler. Two days is usually enough time for lip fillers to settle into the areas where they will stay.
Trauma can induce cold sores to activate. Traumas can include needle punctures like lip injections for lip fillers, sun exposure, and stress. The risk of a cold sore is promptly after an injection. Patients with a history of cold sores on their lips would recommend taking Valtrex in the morning and evening of the procedure day. We ask about cold sore history during our consultation to prevent reactivation of the virus.
At Canada MedLaser Clinics, consultations for lip fillers are free at our two locations in West Toronto and Vaughan.
Yes, lip fillers can leak from the lips after injection if there is an opening from which it can leave your lips like a blister, a cold sore, a bite or scratch, and a scab. Don’t manipulate these areas if they appear and see your injector as soon as possible. Sometimes treated lips will swell to the point that the pressure might force some substance out as a clear gel, but it’s not enough to lose the positive aesthetic result.
Well defined, full lips link you with beauty and youth. As we age our lips become deflated, dry, thin, and wrinkled. With time lines often develop above and around the lips, the upper lip lengthens, and the corners of the mouth turn downward. Heredity, gender, sun exposure, and smoking contribute to lips aging.
Overinflation of the lips with lip fillers will cause unnatural and unattractive duck or sausage lips. It is important to choose an experienced injector who has experience with lip aesthetics for lip injections with natural results.
You may be a candidate for lip injections if you are healthy and are not taking blood thinners or medications that decrease your immunity. Pregnant or breastfeeding women or patients with a history of severe allergies or keloids are not ideal candidates for lip fillers. Patients with a history of herpes simplex on the lips will need antiviral medication before and following lip injections to prevent outbreaks.
Choosing an experienced dermal filler injector is key to minimizing the risks of HA lip injections. Risks of lip injections include allergic reaction, scarring, nerve injury, infection, herpes outbreak, pain, bruising, swelling, and bumps. While aesthetic medical clinics perform lip injections quite often, controlled studies have established the safety, and effectiveness of lip fillers.
Lip fillers like Juvederm and Revanesse, will last at different time intervals. This period depends on how deep lip fillers are injected and where. Your metabolism and lip activity has an impact on lip filler breakdown as well. We find most patients have three to six months before a repeat session is necessary, but we’ve also seen longer periods happen. For patients who want it gone before the lip fillers wear off, there is the product hyaluronidase which can dissolve the lip filler for you.
There is zero evidence the use of injectable lip fillers will lead to the formation of wrinkles when the product is naturally absorbed. Pre-existing wrinkles may be more apparent after product resorption. Clinical tests have proven that the repeated use of lip fillers may lead to the development of new collagen, which could, in theory, decrease the onset of wrinkle development. Do lip fillers move after my lip injections are completed? Lip fillers are powerful dermal fillers that add volume to the lips. Because of their soft texture, they can be used successfully on the lips. Your injector must take care when injecting into the lips, as lip tissue is thin and has powerful lip muscles underneath. Proper lip injections prevent lip fillers from moving out of the lip area. However, if lip fillers are unevenly injected, you may notice asymmetry. You should have an experienced healthcare professional assess this area and determine if it can be corrected by an additional filler or by injecting a hyaluronidase solution to help break up the lip fillers. Are all lip fillers suitable for lip augmentation? No, fillers with higher volume are optimal for lip fillers.
Most complications are temporary, and we can address them with ice packs and topical icing. Other reactions can need more aggressive treatment with injections or medications. Make sure to discuss your treatment and recovery plan with your dermal filler specialist.
