Facial Contouring | Rebalance Yourself                

When you smile, laugh, frown or look puzzled, you contract the muscles of your face. Over time, these contractions produce permanent furrows and deep wrinkles in the skin, especially around the eyes and mouth, between the eyebrows and on the forehead. These lines can make you look older, sad, angry or tired.  Dermal fillers can not only prevent you from deepening these lines, they can also erase these marks of aging, add volume and improve the facial contour, leaving you looking younger and refreshed.

Dermal fillers are FDA-approved and safe for use by most patients.  Many of the fillers are made from substances found naturally in the body, or synthetically made to mimic natural substances or stimulate collagen production. These fillers are injected directly into the skin of the targeted area to restore volume, enhance the shape of the face and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Danielle Smith NP offer patients several different dermal filler options in order to provide the best possible results for their individual needs. Some are better for certain areas of the face than others and may address different skin issues. Danielle Smith NP will discuss your particular needs and recommend which treatment will be ideal for you.
