Restore volume, enhance features, and create facial harmony.
Dermal fillers restore volume lost through aging, enhance natural facial contours, and improve overall facial balance without surgery. Every treatment at Ivy Wellness & Aesthetics begins with a comprehensive consultation focused on facial proportions, anatomy, and your aesthetic goals.
Rather than treating one feature in isolation, we emphasize thoughtful facial harmony. Depending on your needs, treatment may involve the lips, cheeks, chin, jawline, temples, or under-eye region. In selected situations, facial ultrasound may also be used to evaluate previously placed filler or assist with complex assessments.
Dermal fillers are injectable gels that restore volume and support facial structures. Product selection, placement, and quantity are individualized based on the treatment area and desired outcome.
Beautiful results often come from treating the face as a whole rather than focusing on a single feature. During your consultation, Dr. Ivy evaluates facial proportions, structural support, and volume loss to develop a customized treatment plan designed to enhance harmony while maintaining your unique appearance.
In practice that means the assessment comes before the syringe. A chin that reads as weak may be a jawline problem. Under-eye hollowing is often a mid-face support problem. Treating the feature that bothers you, in isolation, is how faces end up looking worked-on rather than rested.
Full facial balancing is normally delivered in stages. Areas are treated in an order that lets each result settle and inform the next, and the plan is reviewed as it progresses. That approach keeps the result proportionate, and it lets the treatment spread across a timeline and a budget that work for you. Balancing plans frequently combine filler with Sculptra for collagen support, neurotoxin for muscle balance, and PDO threads where lift is needed.
As a physician-led practice, treatment planning is individualized with an emphasis on anatomy, safety, and natural-looking results. When clinically appropriate, facial ultrasound may be incorporated to evaluate existing filler or support more advanced aesthetic care.
Dr. Ivy Lawson is a double board-certified vascular and interventional radiologist. Ultrasound is her native clinical language, which is why the Ivy Ultrasound Center sits at the center of the filler practice: it is used to map vessels, identify and locate filler placed elsewhere, guide placement, and support accurate dissolving. Patients come to our Flamingo Road practice from Cooper City, Davie, Weston and Pembroke Pines specifically for that assessment. For patients who prefer a regenerative route to volume, we also offer Cellenis Derma PRP Gel and PRP. Filler treatments and staged balancing plans are included in Ivy Wellness membership pricing.
Filler is placed either through a fine needle or a blunt-tipped cannula, and the two do not feel the same. A needle registers as a quick sting. A cannula is felt more as movement and pressure travelling under the skin, which some patients find stranger than sore. Lips are the most sensitive area most people will encounter; cheeks, chin and jawline are generally reported as easier.
Many hyaluronic acid fillers are formulated with lidocaine mixed into the gel, so an area often becomes less sensitive as treatment goes on. Swelling, tenderness and bruising in the days afterward are normal and settle. Where an area is known to be sensitive, comfort measures can be discussed and agreed before anything is injected — bring it up at your consultation rather than on the day.
Filler is priced by the syringe. What changes from patient to patient is how many syringes a plan takes and where they are placed, and that is decided by anatomy rather than by what you walked in asking for.
For that reason we do not quote filler before the face has been assessed. Your consultation is complimentary, and you leave it knowing the plan, the number of syringes and what it costs, before you book treatment. The Restore membership carries member pricing on filler, and patient financing is available if you would rather spread a staged plan over time. Nothing is sold as a fixed package here.
Common areas include the lips, cheeks, chin, jawline, temples, under-eyes, and selected facial folds depending on individual anatomy.
Full facial balancing is a comprehensive approach that evaluates the entire face to create harmony rather than simply adding volume to one isolated area.
Longevity depends on the product used, treatment area, and individual metabolism. Many treatments last between 6 and 24 months.
Our philosophy is to enhance your natural features while avoiding an overfilled appearance.
Many hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if medically indicated or if a patient desires reversal.
An examination, and when appropriate facial ultrasound, can help evaluate previously placed filler before developing a treatment plan.
Temporary swelling or bruising may occur, but most patients resume normal activities shortly after treatment.
Filler is priced by the syringe, so the cost depends on how many syringes your plan takes, which product each area needs, and whether existing filler has to be assessed first. Full facial balancing is often staged across visits. You are given the plan and its cost at your complimentary consultation, before anything is booked.
Filler is placed with a fine needle or a blunt-tipped cannula. A needle is usually felt as a quick sting; a cannula registers more as pressure and movement under the skin. Lips are the most sensitive area for most patients, while cheeks, chin and jawline are generally easier. Many hyaluronic acid fillers contain lidocaine, so sensitivity often eases as treatment goes on. Comfort options can be discussed at your consultation.
