Juvéderm Facial Filler Treatment in Maryland
Dermal Fillers at Will Surgical Arts
As we age, our faces naturally lose volume. The cheeks start to flatten, lines deepen around the mouth and nose, and the skin begins to look a little less plump and youthful than it once did. This happens because our bodies gradually produce less collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance that helps skin stay hydrated and full. Dermal fillers are designed to replenish that lost volume, smooth out lines and folds, and restore a more refreshed, natural-looking appearance, all without surgery and with little to no downtime.
At Will Surgical Arts, our physicians bring a deep understanding of facial anatomy and cosmetic outcomes to every treatment, which means your results will be tailored precisely to your face and your goals. We offer a range of filler options, including several products from the Juvéderm family, so we can find the right solution for whatever you're looking to address. Whether you want to add volume to your cheeks, smooth nasolabial folds, enhance your lips, or improve overall skin quality, we're here to help you get there.

Which Dermal Filler Treatment Is Right for You?
Our Dermal Filler Options
All of our dermal fillers work by adding volume beneath the surface of the skin to smooth out wrinkles, restore fullness, and enhance facial contours. Most are made with hyaluronic acid, a substance your body already produces naturally, which means they're well-tolerated and the results look and feel natural. Appointments are quick, typically taking around 15 minutes, and most patients can return to their normal activities the same day.
Before any treatment, your physician will sit down with you to discuss your goals, assess your facial structure, and recommend the product or combination of products that will give you the best result. Here's an overview of the fillers we offer:
- Juvéderm Voluma XC is specifically designed to restore lost volume in the cheeks and the area around the chin. As we age, the cheeks can start to look flat or hollow, which can make the whole face appear older. Voluma adds back that fullness and can even create a subtle lifting effect. Results can last up to two years with optimal treatment, making it one of the longest-lasting options in the Juvéderm family.
- Juvéderm Vollure XC is formulated to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, particularly nasolabial folds, which are the lines that run from the sides of the nose down to the corners of the mouth. It uses Juvéderm's VYCROSS technology to create a smooth, long-lasting result that can hold up for up to 18 months with optimal treatment.
- Juvéderm SkinVive is a newer type of injectable that works a little differently than traditional fillers. Rather than adding volume or filling a specific wrinkle, SkinVive is injected into the skin itself to improve overall skin quality. It hydrates from within, giving the skin a smoother, more luminous look. It's a great option for patients who want to improve skin texture and glow rather than address a specific line or fold.
After your treatment, you may notice some mild swelling or bruising in the treated area. This is normal and typically resolves within a few days. Your results will be visible right away, though the final outcome becomes clearer once any initial swelling settles. Your physician will walk you through everything you need to know about aftercare before you leave, including avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol, and extended sun exposure for the first 24 hours.
Fillers can also be combined with Botox for a more complete facial rejuvenation. If you're interested in addressing multiple concerns in a single visit, your physician can help you put together a treatment plan that makes sense for your goals and your budget.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which filler is right for me?
The best filler for you depends on what you're hoping to address. Different products are formulated for different purposes, and the right choice will depend on the area being treated, the depth of the concern, and the kind of result you're looking for. That's why every patient at Will Surgical Arts starts with a personal consultation with one of our physicians. During this consultation, your physician will assess your face, listen to your goals, and recommend the specific product or combination of products that will give you the most natural, flattering result for your unique facial structure.
How long do dermal fillers last?
It depends on the product, but over time, your body naturally absorbs the hyaluronic acid in the filler, and the results gradually fade. When that happens, a follow-up treatment can restore your results. Your physician will give you a more specific timeline based on the product used and how your body responds.
Are dermal filler injections painful?
Most patients find filler injections very comfortable. Many of the Juvéderm products are formulated with lidocaine, a mild numbing agent, built right into the gel, which helps keep the treatment comfortable without needing a separate numbing cream. You may feel a brief pinching or pressure sensation during the injection, but it passes quickly. After your appointment, the treated area may feel a little tender or look slightly swollen, but this typically settles within a few days, and most patients go about their normal routine the same day.
