Over time, aging causes a natural loss of elasticity and facial volume, leading to fine lines, deep wrinkles, skin folds, and hollows. Dermal fillers offer a nonsurgical, FDA-approved solution that helps restore volume, smooth lines, and enhance your facial features for a more youthful appearance, all with little to no downtime.
At his New York City practice, double board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Brad Gandolfi provides personalized dermal filler treatments using only the highest-quality dermal filler products. His precise injection techniques deliver natural-looking results tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy.
Dermal fillers, also known as soft tissue fillers or wrinkle fillers, are injectable treatments that restore lost volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial features affected by aging, genetics, or weight changes.
Most fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a gel-like substance naturally found in the skin that hydrates, plumps, and supports soft tissue.
Dr. Gandolfi brings a surgeon’s skill and an artist’s eye to every dermal filler treatment he performs, rejuvenating your appearance while preserving the natural movement of your expressions. The result is smoother, refreshed skin and balanced contours that complement your natural facial structure.
Dr. Gandolfi has a simple approach to fillers: use high-quality products, implement the latest and safest techniques, and make the procedure as comfortable as possible.
When you have an initial consultation with Dr. Gandolfi, he will carefully assess your aesthetic needs, listen to your expectations, and recommend a brand of fillers that’s right for you. While most fillers work in much the same way, they can have different strengths, making some fillers particularly well-suited for specific patients or for use on certain parts of the face.
Dr. Gandolfi is pleased to provide trusted injectable filler brands, including Juvederm, Restylane®, Restylane lift, Restylane Kysse, RHA2, RHA3, RHA4, Volbella, Vollure, and Voluma.
Dr. Gandolfi uses fillers made of Hyaluronic Acid.

Your visit will begin with a consultation to discuss your goals, select the best filler for your needs, and map out a personalized treatment plan.

He then injects a precise amount of filler into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The entire treatment typically takes less than 30 minutes, and you can resume normal activities right away.
Fillers offer many benefits, making them one of the most popular minimally invasive treatment options. Some of the benefits of fillers include:
Most adults seeking to smooth lines, soften facial creases, or restore youthful volume without surgery are good candidates for dermal fillers.

Recovery from dermal filler injections is minimal. Patients may experience temporary swelling or mild bruising, which usually resolves within a few days.

The results of your dermal filler injections will not be permanent. The specific longevity of your treatment depends on a number of factors, including the brand of filler used, the location of the filler, and your body’s response to the filler.
For most patients, fillers will last at least six months. We do not recommend scheduled or routine filler. This strategy, pushed by some filler manufacturers and injectors, leads to overfilled faces. Instead, specific concerns are addressed as needed.
Yes. All fillers used by Dr. Gandolfi are FDA-approved and backed by years of clinical safety data. When administered by a board-certified plastic surgeon, dermal filler injections carry minimal risk and deliver excellent, consistent outcomes.
Temporary redness, swelling, and mild bruising at the injection site are the most common side effects. These effects are mild and typically resolve within a few days.
Most patients find the dermal filler treatment comfortable. A topical anesthetic can be applied before treatment, and many fillers also contain the numbing agent lidocaine. You may feel light pressure during the injections, but discomfort is minimal.
