Thinking about getting dermal fillers for the first time? You’re not alone—and you’re in the right place. At Aesthetic Center of Excellence (ACE), we understand that taking the first step in your aesthetic journey can feel exciting, but also a little intimidating.
That’s why we’re here to walk you through what to expect—so you feel confident, informed, and fully supported.
Our Philosophy: Enhancing—Not Altering—Your Natural Beauty
At Aesthetic Center of Excellence, we believe in enhancing—not altering—your natural beauty. Our highly trained medical team specializes in advanced, non-invasive treatments that refine and rejuvenate while honoring your unique features. From precision tox and expertly placed fillers to cutting-edge laser technology and medical-grade skincare, every treatment is tailored to your individual aesthetic goals.
With a focus on artistry, safety, and authenticity, we aim to build lifelong relationships rooted in trust, respect, and confidence.
Step 1: Complimentary Consultation
We always start with a free consultation—because your comfort and confidence are our top priorities. This is your time to express concerns, ask questions, and share what you’re hoping to achieve. Your provider will:
- Evaluate your facial structure and skin health
- Review your medical history
- Offer personalized recommendations based on your goals
There’s no pressure—just honest guidance and education to help you make the best decision for you.
Step 2: Personalized Treatment Plan
If dermal fillers are the right fit, your provider will create a customized treatment plan just for you. We offer industry-leading filler options—including Versa, Restylane, RHA, and Juvederm—each chosen for its specific qualities and ability to deliver smooth, natural-looking results. During your consultation, we’ll discuss:
- Which dermal filler products are best suited for your needs
- How many syringes are recommended
- Expected results and longevity
- Special pricing for multi-syringe appointments
- Payment plan options including Cherry and CareCredit
We want everyone to feel empowered on their aesthetic journey, which is why we offer flexible payment solutions and package pricing to help make treatments more accessible.
Step 3: Your Filler Appointment
Once you’re ready, we’ll apply a topical numbing cream and prep the area. Most of the dermal fillers we use contain lidocaine, a gentle anesthetic, to keep you comfortable throughout the process. We typically allow 30 minutes of numbing time.
Your provider will then begin the treatment using advanced injection techniques to achieve balanced, natural-looking results.
The treatment typically takes 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the area and number of syringes used. Total appointment time is usually 45 to 60 minutes.
Step 4: Aftercare & Recovery
You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising after treatment—all normal and temporary. Most clients return to their daily activities right away, with full results visible in 7–10 days.
Pro tips for optimal results:
- Avoid intense exercise for 24–48 hours
- Skip alcohol or excessive heat the day of treatment
- Don’t massage the area unless instructed
We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions before you leave.
Step 5: Long-Term Results and Planning
Depending on the area treated and the filler used, results typically last 6 to 12 months, with some products lasting up to 18 months.
Our providers will guide you on how to maintain your results over time, whether that’s with touch-ups, skincare, or complementary treatments.
Your Journey, Your Pace
We know that deciding to begin aesthetic treatments is deeply personal—and no two journeys look the same. That’s why at Aesthetic Center of Excellence, everything we do is built around you.
Whether you’re exploring injectables for the first time or returning for maintenance, our team is here to educate, empower, and support you every step of the way. There’s no pressure to “do it all”—we’re not here to sell you something you don’t need. Instead, we listen, assess, and design a plan that meets your unique needs while staying true to our philosophy of enhancing—not altering—your natural beauty.
We also understand that accessibility matters. From complimentary consultations to multi-syringe pricing and payment plans through Cherry and CareCredit, we aim to make high-quality aesthetic care available without added stress. You deserve to feel confident in your skin—and we’re committed to helping you get there in a way that feels authentic, comfortable, and totally aligned with your goals.
We believe expertise should meet intention—so you can look and feel like the best version of yourself.
