Dr. Ruth Yeilding, MD

Dermal Fillers

Dermal filler is a minimally invasive procedure primarily used to correct volume loss and restore youthful contours to the face. They are commonly used in the lips, cheeks, chin, and forehead to plump up the skin and create a lively appearance. Here at YMD we offer various options including Juvederm, Volbella, Vollure, Ultra, Ultra Plus, Voluma, and Volux. Dr. Yeilding is extremely conservative with her injections, choosing slight volume enhancement while focusing on aesthetic shaping first using a stable, natural filler product. The smoothness of the filler product is critical for the precise effect needed to achieve natural and beautiful lips. Additionally, Dr. Yeilding’s gentle and highly effective numbing technique is the reason why patients are surprised by the lack of pain during their injection.

More About Dermal Fillers

Kybella

Kybella is specifically designed to reduce fullness under the chin and redefine the jawline. Kybella contains deoxycholic acid, a molecule that is naturally produced by the body. This molecule breaks down dietary fat. Multiple sessions may be required in order to produce the desired effects. 

Juvéderm VOLUMA®

Juvéderm VOLUMA® has the same fundamental hyaluronic acid (HA) biocompatibility and smoothness critical to regular Juvéderm® success, but it has been bio-engineered for the unique cohesive needs for cheek volumizing and has achieved the unique feature of lasting a full 24 months.

In the hands of Dr Yeilding, Juvéderm® injected into these lines can significantly diminish them or make them disappear entirely along with the surrounding wrinkles.

Expectations

Prepare

Review your medical history with your healthcare professional. Prepare by adjusting your medications and skincare regimen as recommended by your doctor. It is vital to avoid UV exposure prior to the procedure. Avoid waxing or tweezing for one to two weeks. 

Pain

Our staff at YMD ensures that our patients are comfortable throughout the whole procedure. Additionally, Dr. Yeilding’s gentle and highly effective numbing technique is the reason why patients are surprised by the lack of pain during their injection.

Recovery

Avoid touching or rubbing the areas of injection. You will want to avoid taking any blood thinners as well as doing heavy exercise. 

Results

Injections typically take a couple weeks to show its full effect. You will begin to notice the effects a couple days after your procedure. Although each injection varies slightly when it comes to the desired results, ultimately, dermal fillers are used to contour the face, increase volume and definition, and ultimately restore our face’s natural proportions. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Here at YMD, we offer everything from surgical procedures, laser treatments, and aesthetic enhancements that help you feel as good as you look. 

While there are a variety of filler products available, each claiming some unique niche, Juvéderm is unmatched in long term safety in its application. The usual side effects, if any, of Juvéderm filler are redness, minor swelling or bruising, tenderness, itching, or lumpiness. These usually within a day to a week.

While all HA products are harmlessly absorbed into the body over time, as Juvéderm diminishes over the nominal 12 months (Juvéderm for folds and wrinkles) to 24 months (Juvéderm Voluma for cheeks), it lasts the longest of all HA products. However, each re-treatment is more consistent due to the proven stability of the product.

This treatment typically takes less than 25 minutes. There is no downtime, and most daily activities can resume shortly afterwards. Our staff will provide you with clear after care instructions to improve post-procedure comfort.
