Dermal Fillers in Elmhurst, IL: Lips, Cheeks, Jawline & What to Realistically Expect
Dermal fillers are one of the most requested treatments at Accelerated Aesthetics — and one of the most misunderstood. When done well, fillers are virtually undetectable. You look like yourself, just more rested, more defined, more youthful. Our entire approach is built around one principle: enhance, don’t alter.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable gels — most commonly made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a molecule your skin naturally produces to stay plump and hydrated. Unlike neurotoxins which relax muscles, fillers physically add or restore volume. HA fillers are also reversible — an enzyme called hyaluronidase can dissolve them quickly and safely if needed.
Where Can Fillers Be Used?
Lips
Whether you want subtle definition, a more balanced lip ratio, or genuine volume, lip filler can achieve it. Our goal is lips that look like your lips, just better. Results last 6–12 months.
Cheeks
Cheek filler restores the lifted, defined contour that naturally diminishes with age — lifting the mid-face and creating a subtle rejuvenation effect. Results last 12–18 months.
Under-Eyes (Tear Troughs)
Softens the hollow between the lower eyelid and cheek, reducing dark shadows and that “sunken” appearance. One of the most impactful areas for clients who look tired regardless of sleep. Results last 12–18 months.
Jawline & Chin
Creates definition and structure along the jaw. Often combined with chin filler for full lower face balancing and improved profile. Results last 12–18 months.
How Much Do Fillers Cost Near Elmhurst?
Expect to pay $650–$900 per syringe at a quality med spa with experienced injectors. Subtle lip enhancement typically requires 0.5–1 syringe. Full lip treatment 1–2 syringes. Cheek restoration 1–2 syringes per side. Full face rejuvenation 3–6 syringes across multiple areas. We provide a clear estimate during your complimentary consultation with no obligation to proceed.
What to Expect
Every appointment starts with a consultation. We apply topical numbing before injecting, and most HA fillers also contain lidocaine. Most appointments take 30–60 minutes. You may have mild swelling or bruising after — completely normal and temporary. Judge your final results at 2 weeks, not the day after.
