Restore youthful volume and radiant confidence—no surgery needed.

Subtle, Natural Rejuvenation Without Downtime

Over time, the face naturally loses volume and elasticity. This can lead to hollow cheeks, deepened folds, and tired, aged expressions that don’t reflect how vibrant you feel inside. At Cheng Plastic Surgery, we offer artfully administered dermal fillers in San Mateo & Redwood City to gently restore youthful contours, smooth lines, and replenish facial harmony, with immediate, elegant results.

Our dermal filler treatments, performed by Drs. Jacqueline and Elbert Cheng—double board-certified facial plastic surgeons voted Best Plastic Surgeons in the Bay Area by readers of the Mercury News—are designed to be subtle yet transformative. Whether enhancing lips, rejuvenating under-eye hollows, or sculpting cheeks and jawline, every treatment is tailored to achieve a naturally lifted, radiant appearance without looking overdone.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that restore lost volume and improve facial definition. Most are made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in the body that attracts moisture and supports skin hydration and firmness. Others, like Sculptra®, stimulate collagen production for longer-term improvement in skin structure.

Dermal fillers are commonly used to:

Plump thinning lips
Lift and contour cheeks or jawline
Smooth nasolabial folds and marionette lines
Correct under-eye hollows (tear troughs)
Refine a non-surgical nose shape
Fill in acne scars or depressed areas

Restylane® Contour

Designed for dynamic facial areas, this filler integrates smoothly with your natural movements—ideal for rejuvenating the mid-face while preserving expression. Perfect for lifting cheekbones, softening shadows, and sculpting definition with natural flexibility.

Sculptra® Aesthetic

As a biostimulator, Sculptra gradually encourages your body to produce collagen, rebuilding your skin’s natural scaffolding. As the longest-lasting filler and biostimulator available, it gently stimulates collagen production over time, creating subtle, natural-looking results that can last up to two and a half years, making it a great choice for overall facial rejuvenation.

What to Expect During Treatment

Dermal filler injections are quick and comfortable, typically taking 30 minutes or less. We may use a numbing cream beforehand, and most filler products contain lidocaine for additional comfort.

There’s no required downtime—you can return to work or social plans the same day. Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection site may occur, but these effects usually resolve within 24–48 hours. Makeup can be applied shortly after.

FAQ Dermal Fillers

Can dermal fillers replace a facelift?

Fillers are excellent for early signs of aging or for patients who aren’t ready for surgery. For more advanced sagging, surgical options may provide longer-lasting results.

Are the results immediate?

Yes. Most hyaluronic acid fillers offer instant volume, with minor swelling that resolves within a few days.

Will I look overfilled or unnatural?

Not at Cheng Plastic Surgery. Our approach is conservative and customized. We aim to enhance—not exaggerate—your features.

How are fillers different from BOTOX®?

BOTOX® relaxes muscles that cause wrinkles. Fillers replace lost volume or fill static lines. Many patients benefit from a combination of both.

Can fillers treat acne scars?

Yes, dermal fillers can elevate and smooth out pitted scars, restoring a more even skin surface.
