Natural, balanced filler.
A prescription injectable that restores volume, refines facial balance, and softens the look of lines. Our approach is conservative and detail-driven — so you look refreshed, never overfilled.
Why clients choose filler.
Our style is "less, but better" — balanced placement, conservative dosing, and results that still look like you.
Most-requested filler areas.
We'll assess your facial structure, movement, and goals — then we choose a plan that improves balance and support without overfilling.
- Lips — shape, hydration, definition
- Cheeks & midface — lift and support
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Marionette lines (corners of mouth)
- Chin — shape and proportion
- Jawline — definition
Structure-first planning with safety-focused technique — so results look smooth, balanced, and natural in real life.
What to expect.
A calm, three-step experience from first conversation to final result.
You may have temporary swelling, tenderness, or bruising. We'll provide detailed aftercare and follow-up guidance.
How to prepare for filler.
Key safety notes to know before your appointment.
- No dental work — for 2 weeks before and after filler (4 weeks if major dental work)
- No vaccinations — for 2 weeks before or after filler
- If you bruise easily, avoid NSAIDs (Advil/Motrin), alcohol, and certain supplements beforehand — only if safe for you, ask us first
- Let us know about autoimmune conditions, multiple allergies, or a history of cold sores
- Avoid if pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or nursing
- Do not treat if there's an active infection near the area
If you have a history of cold sores and we're treating around the lips, ask us about prevention options.
Transparent filler pricing.
Dermal filler at Dam Medspa typically ranges from $600–$800 per syringe, depending on the product type and how much is used. During your consultation, we'll recommend a plan that matches your goals and budget — without overfilling.
Exact pricing is confirmed after we assess your features, goals, and the safest plan.
Hyaluronic acid fillers.
We primarily use HA dermal fillers from the Juvéderm family. HA is naturally found in the body and is used to add volume, improve balance, and support smooth, natural contours.
HA fillers are customizable by area and goal — and if needed, HA filler can be dissolved. That reversibility is a key safety advantage.
We'll recommend the best product for your anatomy and desired finish — soft, structured, or supportive.
How long does filler last?
Most filler results last about 1–2 years, depending on the product type, placement, your metabolism, and how much was used. Many clients find their results last longer than expected, especially once they've built toward their goal over time.
Longevity varies. We'll give you a realistic timeline based on your plan and the areas treated.
Safety & complications.
Most filler side effects are temporary and can include swelling, tenderness, and bruising. These aren't fun, but they're not uncommon — and they pass.
A true complication that is rare is vascular occlusion — when filler blocks a blood vessel. If there are warning signs, we have a clear protocol and we keep a reversal agent (hyaluronidase) in-office at all times. We review red flags and when to contact us immediately. If needed, we also have access to a plastic surgeon who can see and help treat clients the same day.
If you ever experience severe pain, skin color changes, or vision symptoms after any injectable treatment, contact us immediately and seek urgent medical care.

Before & after.
Real client results from dermal filler treatments at Dam Medspa in Dorchester, Boston.
Results vary by individual. Photos are of actual clients with consent. No outcome is guaranteed.
How much is in a syringe?
Most dermal filler syringes contain about 1 mL — that's a small amount of volume. Natural-looking results come from precise placement and, sometimes, a staged plan that builds gradually over more than one visit.
"One syringe" doesn't automatically mean a dramatic change. Your final look depends on where it's placed, your anatomy, and whether the goal is definition, support, or volume.
We'll recommend an amount based on your features, goals, and the most natural-looking plan.
Filler questions, answered.
Will I look natural?
That's the goal. We prioritize balance and conservative correction so you look refreshed — not "overfilled."
How long does filler last in lips or cheeks?
Longevity depends on the product type and how much is used. Once you've built toward your goal, lips and cheeks can last a long time — many clients find results last longer than expected.
Does filler migrate?
Migration is uncommon with proper technique and correct product selection, but it can happen — especially with repeated treatments, shallow placement, or natural movement over time. If it ever becomes a concern, HA filler can be dissolved.
Can filler be dissolved?
Yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers (like the Juvéderm family we use) can be dissolved with a reversal agent if needed.
Filler vs Botox — what's the difference?
Filler (often HA) adds volume and improves balance (fullness, contour, shadow and light). Botox is a neuromodulator that relaxes muscles that create lines and wrinkles. They do different things — but often work beautifully together.
How much filler do I need for cheeks or jawline?
It depends on your starting anatomy and goals. A conservative approach can be 0.5 syringe per cheek and about 1 syringe per side for jawline definition — but your best plan is determined during consultation.
Can I work out after filler?
We recommend waiting at least 48 hours before strenuous exercise to reduce swelling and lower the chance of migration.
Is there downtime?
Most clients return to normal activities quickly. You may have temporary swelling, tenderness, or bruising.
What should I avoid around my appointment?
Avoid dental work and vaccinations around your filler appointment. Avoid touching or massaging the area, and let us know about medications, autoimmune conditions, allergies, or cold sore history so we can plan safely.
A balanced refresh awaits.
