During an injectable dermal filler procedure, a skilled practitioner administers the filler using a fine needle or cannula. The treatment typically takes around 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the areas being treated and the amount of filler required. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, with most patients experiencing only mild discomfort. Before the injection, the practitioner may apply a local anesthetic or numbing cream to the treatment area to minimize any pain or discomfort. Once the filler is injected, it is gently massaged or molded into place to ensure smooth and even results. After the procedure, patients may experience minor swelling or bruising, but these side effects usually resolve within a few days.
