About Us

At JECT Medical Aesthetics, we understand that true beauty is about feeling confident in your own skin. That’s why we specialize in treatments that enhance your natural features. One of our most popular treatments is hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, known for their safety and efficacy in rejuvenating facial aesthetics. These advanced injectables provide a non-invasive solution for restoring volume and smoothing lines, empowering you to look as vibrant and youthful as you feel. Let’s explore how dermal fillers can refine your natural elegance and restore a youthful complexion.

What are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?

Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected into the fat pads to restore lost volume, and enhance facial contours. We exclusively use hyaluronic acid fillers, a naturally occurring substance in the skin, revered for its incredible ability to retain moisture — up to 1,000 times its weight in water. This property makes it ideal for maintaining skin hydration and volume, which are often lost with age.

‍

How Do Fillers Work?

Hyaluronic acid fillers work by immediately adding volume to the skin. When injected, they smooth out wrinkles and folds, enhance the lips, and can reshape the facial contours. Common treatment areas include the cheeks, lips, and jawline, allowing for a balanced and naturally refreshed appearance.

The Benefits of Choosing Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

Our clients love hyaluronic acid fillers for many reasons:

• Immediate Results: The lifting and smoothing effects of the fillers are visible right after the treatment, allowing you to see a rejuvenated look instantly.

• Minimal Downtime: Recovery is quick, and you can resume most daily activities immediately after the procedure, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.

• Reversibility and Safety: Unlike permanent cosmetic enhancements, hyaluronic acid fillers are biodegradable and naturally dissolve over time. They can also be reversed with the enzyme hyaluronidase, offering an additional safety net for those apprehensive about permanent changes.

‍

Are Fillers Safe?

Yes, hyaluronic acid fillers are Health Canada approved and are one of the safest cosmetic treatments available. The most common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, which typically resolves within a few days. Our experienced practitioners ensure the highest safety standards are met during every treatment.

Who is a Candidate for Fillers?

Almost anyone looking to reduce signs of aging or enhance their facial features could be a candidate for hyaluronic acid fillers. During your consultation, we will assess your skin, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Preparing for Your Treatment

Preparing for Your Treatment To ensure the best results, we recommend avoiding alcohol and tobacco at least a week before treatment. Staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy skin care regimen can also enhance your results.

Be aware of certain conditions that may preclude treatment, such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, active infections, or allergies to filler ingredients like Lidocaine. Inform your provider of any autoimmune diseases, use of immunosuppressants, or history of severe allergies or cold sores. Pre-treatment precautions include avoiding dental work, oral surgery, and certain medications or supplements known to increase bruising risk. Arnica may be recommended to minimize bruising. Also, steer clear of laser treatments, hair removal, and specific topical prescriptions in the days leading up to your appointment. It's essential to consult your provider and adhere to these guidelines for a safe and successful procedure.

Post-Treatment Care

After your filler treatment, we advise avoiding excessive sun exposure, strenuous exercise, and heat for the first 24-48 hours. It's also important not to apply pressure to the treated areas to allow the filler to settle properly. Long-term care includes maintaining good skin health with a proper medical grade skincare regimen and checking in with your injector to monitor the effects of the fillers as they gradually diminish over time. Results can last from six months to over a year before gradual absorption by the body, so creating a schedule for your dermal fillers will ensure you maintain a consistent appearance.

At JECT, as a team of skilled nurse injectors, we focus on providing treatments that not only enhance your beauty, but also boost your confidence. Our hyaluronic acid fillers are a testament to our commitment to quality, safety, and outstanding results.
