You may be familiar with the ways dermal fillers can reduce wrinkles or plump up your lips, but do you know just how versatile these injectables really are? At Preventative Medical Clinic, we use dermal fillers to help Omaha men and women achieve much more than just smoother skin. In fact, nearly every area of the face can be enhanced with fillers—all with little to no downtime required.
In this blog post, we’ll look at a few different areas of the face and discuss how fillers can elevate and improve each of them.
Eyes
If you look sleep-deprived, no matter how many hours you get and concealer isn’t cutting it, dermal fillers may do the trick. Dermal fillers such as JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® XC in the tear troughs can fill in hollows and minimize the shadowy circles underneath your eyes. They can also disguise puffy bags by raising the surrounding areas to create a more even surface.
This is popular for people who are genetically prone to having tired-looking eyes even when they are rested. If you also struggle with crow’s feet or other lines around your eyes, BOTOX® Cosmetic can help relax them to provide more comprehensive improvement.
Cheeks
Hollowed or flattened cheeks is a common sign of aging due to volume loss, but fillers can help combat this. Over time, we lose the collagen and hyaluronic acid (HA) under our skin that creates plump, pinchable cheeks. Injecting JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC, which is formulated with HA, restores youthfulness and definition to the mid-face.
If you have naturally flat cheeks, dermal fillers can augment them to enhance your natural face shape and balance your features.
Lips
Whether your lips are naturally small or have lost volume due to aging, dermal fillers can define and enhance their shape and size. VOLBELLA is specifically formulated for lip augmentation, which is one of the most popular treatments we perform here in Omaha.

Nose
Though it seems counterintuitive, adding dermal fillers to your nose can actually make it appear smaller or more symmetrical. Nose filler works through a “subtraction by addition” approach. Strategically adding filler can disguise bumps and help your nose appear more harmonious with your face.
This is a great temporary alternative to rhinoplasty that doesn’t require the anesthesia or downtime associated with surgery.
Chin
A strong chin and sharp jawline frame your features and define the lower part of your face. Chin and jawline contouring with dermal fillers can help balance your facial proportions and create a more flattering facial shape. We often use VOLUMA in the chin and jawline to achieve this effect.
Wrinkles
As collagen in the skin depletes over time, wrinkles and lines develop in the skin. These may manifest as small, superficial lines, such as smoker’s lines, or deeper, larger folds, such as nasolabial folds. By adding HA just under the skin in these areas, dermal fillers can plump up the lines and smooth out the skin’s surface, helping you appear younger and more rejuvenated.
