Are Dermal FillersMade of Natural Ingredients?

Dermal fillers have evolved significantly since their initial use decades ago. In the United States, hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers are the most commonly used today. HA is a natural polysaccharide found in the body's connective tissues. Deemed extremely versatile, semi-permanent, and also reversible if necessary, HA fillers last between six months to two years — a longevity which greatly enhances their appeal for those seeking a rejuvenated appearance without going under a scalpel.

Are You a Candidate for Dermal Filler Injections?

Non-smokers in good general health are preferred candidates as this helps us ensure a far greater safety threshold.

Are Dermal Filler Injections Safe?

FDA-approved, when administered by a fully trained and experienced medical professional, dermal fillers are considered to be safe procedures. With the expert injectors at Illuminate's centers using the most respected brands of dermal fillers San Jose and Palo Alto patients are in very safe hands.

  • Restore fullness to the cheeks and midface
  • Add plumpness to lips
  • Create more contour for the chin
  • Raise indented scars
  • Lift mouth corners
