World-Class Care for Every Patient
Dermal fillers are a highly sought-after procedure at doctors offices and med spas around the world due to their fast results and lack of extended downtime. Fillers can be used to counter aging-related hollowing of the cheeks or under-eye area, plump out wrinkles and depressed acne scars, reshape the chin and jaw, and add volume where desired.
With Dr. Stephan Baker in Miami dermal fillers come with the experience of a board-certified plastic surgeon. Dr. Baker performs each treatment himself, which is a rarity in this industry. Contact Dr. Baker’s practice to schedule your consultation and learn about the best type of dermal filler to help you achieve your cosmetic goals effectively and beautifully.
Smoothing, Lifting, and Contouring Without Surgery
In a dermal filler procedure, Dr. Baker injects fillers just beneath the surface of the skin to fill out, lift, and recontour the treatment area. Fillers are an outpatient procedure and do not require general anesthesia or downtime, making them a desirable alternative to more invasive treatment options. Dermal fillers can be used to add volume to facial hollows, plump out deep lines and tone wrinkled skin, raise depressed acne scars, and reshape the contours of various areas of the face. Depending on the type of filler used, results can last from several months to a year or longer.
Dr. Stephan Baker uses high-quality Allergan products for our dermal filler injections. These include the Juvéderm® family of products, along with Vollure, Voluma, and Volbella. These hyaluronic acid dermal fillers work by injecting a gel filler into areas of the face that tend to lose volume over time. The gel filler instantly improves the appearance of these areas as it replaces the lost volume. The body naturally produces hyaluronic acid as a way to cushion the joints and tissues of the body. Hyaluronic acid also helps the skin appear hydrated and retain moisture, making it an excellent choice for skin treatments like dermal fillers.
Fillers can be performed by doctors, physician’s assistants, or nurses, meaning it is not difficult to find a provider offering this treatment. However, the quality of your results can depend on the skill of the person performing your procedure. Renowned surgeon Dr. Stephan Baker proudly offers facial fillers through his Miami, FL, practice. He strives to deliver the best dermal fillers Miami has to offer, personally performing each procedure as part of his commitment to providing a comprehensive range of quality cosmetic care.
“I do every procedure three times. I do it all in my head in advance. I do the actual surgery. I review it all from start to finish to look for ways to improve. This way, each procedure I do is my best work.”
Highlight Your Natural Appeal
You can now safely enhance your features without surgery using state-of-the-art dermal filler technology. Patients love the ease and versatility of fillers, which can be used to plump out wrinkles, elevate acne scars, smooth deep creases, correct asymmetries, add volume to hollow cheeks or under eyes, recontour the chin, jawline, or nose, and make other enhancements.
Depending on the type of fillers used, results will last from several months to several years. Fillers can be retouched as needed, extending your results and even helping slow the formation of new lines and wrinkles. A careful and experienced injector like Dr. Baker can use dermal fillers to precisely smooth, volumize, and recontour the treatment area, balancing out your features and highlighting your natural beauty.
Dr. Baker is passionate about crafting your filler treatment to provide results that will make you smile when you see yourself in the mirror. Dermal fillers are safe for most patients but may not be recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions or who are taking certain medications. After learning about your medical history and treatment goals, Dr. Baker will recommend the best procedure type for you.

A consummate perfectionist, Dr. Baker looks forward to discussing your goals for dermal fillers and designing a procedure that delivers beautiful results.
Fast Procedure, Back To Your Routine
Dermal fillers are performed in a minimally-invasive outpatient procedure. For your comfort, a numbing cream will first be applied to the area to be treated. After the cream has done its work, you will receive injections of your selected filler via a narrow needle inserted just beneath the skin. Dr. Baker carefully designs each procedure and places your injections to provide beautiful, natural-looking results that will last as long as possible.
After the injections, the treatment area may be gently massaged to provide shaping and encourage proper absorption of the injected material. The entire process takes approximately one hour to complete. Afterward, you will be able to drive yourself home and go back to your regular routine. It is normal for there to be mild swelling or bruising at the injection sites, which will fade within a couple of days.
Little to No Downtime
Dermal fillers require little to no downtime, though you may experience mild swelling or bruising at the injection sites for one to two days after your visit. You will also be advised to avoid heavy activity for a few days in the early stages of healing. For fillers that work by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, it generally takes between a few days and a few weeks for your full results to show up. Synthetic semi-permanent fillers will be visible immediately, but it may take a little while for them to settle in and achieve their optimal appearance.
Maintenance for Long Lasting Results
Staying hydrated, eating a healthy diet, wearing sunscreen, and avoiding tobacco products can all help your results last longer and contribute to a more youthful, glowing complexion. Most types of fillers will be gradually reabsorbed over time, but they can be retouched as desired to maintain your results and slow the formation of new lines.

A numbing cream applied before your procedure minimizes the discomfort of the injections. You may have mild swelling and bruising afterward, which will resolve in one to two days.
As with any procedure that breaks the skin, there is a small risk of infection or adverse reaction to the fillers. Dr. Baker will take a detailed medical history to ensure that your procedure can be performed safely.
