Dermal Fillers in St. Louis | Town & Country, MO

Dermal Fillers

Dermal filler injections can restore subtle support and refine facial balance without making you look overfilled. At ELEV8 Aesthetics, we use dermal filler for areas like the cheeks, chin, temples, lips, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines, with a conservative approach that respects your natural beauty.

Dermal filler restores structural and volume-related changes: the facial shifts that occur as bone density decreases, fat pads shrink or move, and the face loses some of its natural support over time.

Dermal filler is our favorite treatment for:

Nasolabial folds

Lip definition

Jawline definition

How Dermal Filler Works

Hyaluronic acid fillers, including Juvederm and RHA, use a smooth, water-binding gel to mimic the soft support of facial tissue or the firmer support of deeper facial structure, like bone.

Dermal filler can restore support under the skin to soften hollows or folds, balance facial features, or add volume and definition to the lips.

Treatment Areas

  • Nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines
  • Cheeks
  • Chin and chin shadow
  • Temples
  • Vertical lip lines
  • Wrinkles

We also offer Lip Filler.

Dermal Fillers Treatment

Treatment Length

45–60 minutes

Downtime

Mild swelling, tenderness, redness, or bruising is common. The lips tend to swell more than other areas.

Results

Immediate, with best results visible in two weeks (post-swelling).

Refresh

Every 9–18 months

Dermal filler can restore structure, balance, and soft volume.

However, it should not be the first answer for every line, fold, or hollow. At ELEV8, we strengthen skin quality and collagen support first, then use filler only where it’s needed.

Dermal Filler Before and After

Frequently Asked Questions

Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment to help reduce your chance of bruising. If you take aspirin, NSAIDs, blood thinners, or supplements that may affect bleeding, do not stop them on your own: ask your prescribing provider first. Come in with a clean face if you can, and plan your filler appointment at least six weeks before any major event.

You can expect swelling, tenderness, firmness, and possible bruising after filler. Swelling usually peaks around Day 2 or 3, so please do not judge your results right away. Use a cold compress as directed for swelling, sleep with your head slightly elevated the first night, and avoid alcohol, strenuous exercise, saunas, facial massage, and pressure on the treated area for 24-48 hours, or as directed by your provider.

Not when your injector uses it correctly. Overfilled results usually happen when filler is placed in the wrong area, applied too heavily or quickly, or selected as a “quick fix” when another treatment approach would have produced more natural-looking results. At ELEV8, our Facial Balancing approach uses filler as a final step to restore dwindling or missing support to the face.

Botox softens the muscle movements that create expression lines in the skin. Hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler adds support, shape, or soft volume where the face has lost structure or needs refinement. If your concerns include forehead lines, crow’s feet, or platysmal bands, then Botox may be the right treatment for you. If your concerns are heaviness in the lower face, deep nasolabial folds (the lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin), or a lack of jawline definition, then dermal filler may be the right choice.

Filler is more dense, so it provides immediate shape, support, or volume to a precise, targeted area. Biostimulators like Sculptra and Hyperdilute Radiesse are more viscous, so they are better suited for restoring volume across the face in thin layers. Biostimulators also stimulate your body to build collagen over time, which helps to strengthen and preserve the area over time. At ELEV8 Aesthetics, we often start with biostimulators before finishing with filler.

We rarely provide under-eye filler or tear trough dermal filler treatments. The under-eye area is a delicate and high-risk area, and dermal filler is not the best fit for most patients. To treat under-eye hollows, dark circles, or a tired-looking under-eye area, we usually prefer a series of PRF Gel, because it strengthens the tissue and provides 100% natural results.

I’m so happy with my results from Hailey! I originally went in thinking I wanted a lip flip, but she recommended gummy smile Botox instead and I’m so glad I listened to her. I really appreciated that she took the time to look at my face and explain what she thought would give me the best results for me. She’s super sweet, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely comfortable. I love my results and will definitely be going back to her!

Tara was friendly, professional, and excellent at explaining the options. The procedure was very smooth and no more painful than a bee sting.

I must say that ELEV8 Aesthetics is my go to for all of my self-care needs. Hailey is very knowledgeable and trustworthy, she has never tried to oversell anything, and she always goes above and beyond. Not only am I very satisfied with my treatments and results, I truly feel she listens to me, and that, I feel is invaluable. I have no reservations referring Elev8 Aesthetics to all of my family and friends.

I'm very happy with how Hailey did my Botox. The results are excellent. I'd previously done it elsewhere and wasn't satisfied. She's very pleasant and kind, and she does everything quickly and professionally. I highly recommend her!

I had never had any injectables when I found Elev8, and am so glad I did! Hailey explains everything thoroughly and will guide you to make the best decision for you, not just give you what you came in asking about or what costs the most. The results have been great for both PRP under eye filler and Botox. Easy and flexible scheduling too.

I don’t often leave reviews, but I genuinely had such an amazing experience today with Tara. For context, this was my first time ever receiving injectables of any kind. I’ve been doing my research for months upon months to try and find someone that I felt like I could trust—I’m so glad I did! I booked a consultation and had several questions. She took the time to break down and explain every concern that I expressed and was extremely knowledgeable. It was so nice to feel included and educated every step of the way! There was no pressure/judgement to do anything I didn’t discuss in the consultation. They also offer a discounted rate for Botox if you’ve never been before. All in all, I couldn’t recommend Tara more for any of your needs. ❤️
