Our advanced filler treatments are designed to address a variety of concerns, including fine lines, lack of definition, lost volume, and facial contouring.
When you choose to receive a filler treatment, you can expect a comprehensive experience tailored to your unique needs. Our highly trained providers will guide you through the process, starting with a thorough consultation to understand your desired outcomes and concerns.
For every treatment, our experts use FDA-approved products. These fillers are strategically injected into specific areas to restore volume, smooth out wrinkles, and sculpt your facial contours.

100/10 recommend the Confidence Bar!! My first time getting lip filler was an all around amazing experience with Dr Christina and her team. She took the time to explain the process in detail, answered all of my questions and ensured I was comfortable throughout the whole time.

BEFORE YOUR TREATMENT
Schedule your facial filler appointment at least four weeks prior to a special event that you may be attending, such as a wedding or a vacation. Bruising and swelling may be apparent for up to two weeks after your treatment and you may require refinement after the original treatment.
Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours prior to treatment, as it can thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising.
Avoid anti-inflammatory/blood-thinning medications, if possible, for a period of two weeks before treatment. Medications and supplements such as aspirin, Vitamin E, Ginkgo Biloba, Ginseng, St. John’s Wort, Omega 3/Fish Oil supplements, Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve, and other NSAIDS thin the blood and can increase the risk of bruising and swelling after injections.
Discontinue Retin-A use two days before and two days after treatment.
If you do not feel well, have a rash, cold sore, or blemish in the treatment area, please reschedule at least 24 hours in advance.
You will receive an email from our office just prior to your treatment recapping these pre-treatment instructions.

POST TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Once you have received a facial filler treatment, the results will be apparent immediately and will last from several months to several years depending on the filler used, treatment area, and your individual biology.
Due to the presence of lidocaine anesthetic in the gel formula, you may feel numbness or tingling immediately after the procedure. This will resolve within the hour.
Bruising may be visible initially, and then become more obvious the next day. It will fade over the next 7 to 14 days.
You may experience significant swelling after injections, especially if your lips were treated. Applying clean, cool compresses to the treatment area helps to reduce swelling.
Do not apply make-up over injection points for 24 hours after the procedure. If you need to hydrate your lips, simply apply Aquaphor with a clean cotton swab or Q-Tip.
Mild, non-painful swelling may last for up to 2 weeks. This is no reason for concern, however, feel free to contact the Confidence Bar staff at any time with concerns.
Some people may experience a dull ache and/or tenderness in the treated areas. This will subside in 48-72 hours.
In the rare case of an adverse event, an antidote can be administered to partially or fully reverse the effects of treatment.
You will receive an email from our team immediately after your treatment recapping these post-treatment instructions.

DAY OF TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, there is a risk that the needle punctures could contribute to another outbreak of cold sores. Please let us know so you can be prescribed antiviral medication prior to treatment.
Be sure to have a solid meal, including food and drink, the morning before your procedure. This will decrease the chances of lightheadedness during your treatment.
Please arrive at the office with a clean face. NO makeup, tinted moisturizer, sunscreen, etc. which may interfere with the procedure.
You may not receive treatment if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
When you arrive, please notify The Confidence Bar staff of any changes to your medical history or health status including any recent vaccinations. Please also inform us of any personal or lifestyle activities that may be relevant to your treatment.
