Restoring Volume for a Refreshed, Natural Appearance
Injectable treatments designed to restore balance and structure, and skin quality.
Injectable treatments at Meadowlark are designed to restore balance, softness, and definition—without looking overdone.
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, such as Juvederm® and Restylane®, provide immediate volume and contour where it’s been lost. Cheeks appear lifted, lips regain natural fullness, and the jawline becomes more defined, all while maintaining facial harmony.
For those seeking a more gradual, regenerative approach, biostimulators such as Sculptra® and Radiesse® work differently. Rather than simply replacing volume, they stimulate your body’s natural collagen production—improving skin thickness, structure, and firmness over time.
Using advanced techniques and a trained, discerning eye, our injectors design treatments that may smooth nasolabial folds, restore volume, and refine contours with precision and care—often combining approaches for the most natural, long-term outcome.
What to expect:
-
Immediate, natural-looking results with hyaluronic acid fillers
-
Gradual improvement in skin quality, firmness, and structure with biostimulators
-
A treatment plan tailored to your goals—whether immediate enhancement, long-term regeneration, or both
-
Results that may last 6–18 months for fillers, and up to two years for collagen-stimulating treatments

What Do Injectable Treatments Address in Edmonton?
Targeted treatment for volume, structure, and skin quality.
At Meadowlark, hyaluronic fillers and biostimulators are used to restore volume, refine contours, and improve skin quality—selected based on your goals and how you want your results to evolve over time.
Common treatment areas include:
-
Cheeks & midface: Restore lift and support for more youthful contours
-
Nasolabial folds: Soften deeper lines and structural creasing
-
Lips: Refine shape, restore volume, or enhance definition with restraint
-
Temples/under eyes: Improve hollowing and restore balance through the upper face
-
Jawline & chin: Create a more defined, structured profile
Biostimulators such as Sculptra® and Radiesse® may also be used to gradually improve skin firmness and structure through collagen regeneration.
Results are tailored and natural-looking. Hyaluronic fillers typically last 6–18 months, while biostimulator results can last up to two years.
Avoid treatment if you have an active infection, certain autoimmune conditions, or are pregnant. A consultation ensures safe, appropriate care.
Recovery & Results
Immediate refinement or gradual regeneration—tailored to your treatment.
Injectable treatments at Meadowlark are designed for minimal downtime, with results that evolve based on the approach selected.
Hyaluronic fillers provide immediate hydration and lift, refining over the first 1–2 weeks as the product settles.

Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
-
Day 1: Visible volume (fillers) or subtle fullness (biostimulators), with possible swelling or bruising
-
Week 1: Fillers begin to settle; early biostimulator response begins
1–3 Months: Peak collagen regeneration and improved skin quality with biostimulators -
Long-term: Smooth, supported contours with results lasting months to years depending on treatment
-
-
Ice 10-15 min/hour for the first 24 hours; sleep elevated.
-

Your Treatment
A Considered Approach to Injectable Treatments
Planned with precision, tailored to you.
Your consultation at Meadowlark Surgical Centre & Cosmetic Clinic is designed to understand your anatomy, movement, and goals, guiding a treatment plan that restores structure, refines contours, and supports your skin over time.
How Do Injectable Treatments Work?
Hyaluronic fillers and biostimulators restore volume in different ways—your treatment is selected based on whether you want immediate enhancement, gradual regeneration, or both.
Hyaluronic Fillers (e.g., Juvederm®, Restylane®):
A gel that binds water within the skin, instantly restoring volume and smoothing contours. Results are visible immediately and refine over 1–2 weeks.
Biostimulators (e.g., Sculptra®, Radiesse®):
Rather than adding volume directly, these treatments stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, gradually improving structure, firmness, and skin quality over several weeks.
Step-by-step Process:
-
Consult & Prep: Facial assessment and numbing for comfort
-
Precision Injection: Filler or biostimulator placed using a fine needle or cannula (15–45 minutes)
-
Post-Treatment Care: Technique-dependent, may include massage (particularly for certain biostimulators) or leaving the product to settle naturally
-
Results: Immediate with fillers; gradual, collagen-driven improvement with biostimulators
All treatments are performed by qualified nurse injectors under plastic surgeon oversight in Meadowlark Surgical Centre’s CPSA-accredited facility.
Safe and clinically established. Hyaluronic fillers are reversible if needed.
Are Injectable Treatments Safe?
Safety profile, risks, and clinical oversight.
Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm® and Restylane®, along with biostimulators like Sculptra® and Radiesse®, are Health Canada–approved treatments. Most side effects are mild and temporary, typically resolving within a few days.
While all injectable treatments carry some level of risk, outcomes are significantly influenced by proper technique, product selection, and a thorough understanding of facial anatomy.
Common Side Effects
-
Swelling, bruising, or redness (1-7 days)
-
Tenderness or firmness at injection sites
-
Temporary nodules or fullness (more common with biostimulators during early collagen stimulation)
Rare Risks & Prevention
-
Infection or allergic reaction: Minimized through strict sterile protocols and patient screening
-
Vascular occlusion (blocked blood flow): Reduced through advanced anatomical knowledge and precise injection technique
-
Nodules or uneven results: May occur with biostimulators if aftercare (such as massage) is not followed
-
Unsatisfactory results: Hyaluronic fillers can be dissolved if needed; biostimulator outcomes are gradual and require careful planning
Receive a treatment plan and pricing thoughtfully tailored to your features and expressions.
Typically 15–45 minutes, depending on treatment areas and whether hyaluronic fillers (Juvéderm® and Restylane®) or biostimulators (Sculptra® or Radiesse®) are used.
Mild swelling or bruising may occur for 1–3 days. Most patients resume normal activities the same day. Biostimulator treatments may involve minor tenderness and require brief post-treatment massage as advised.
Hyaluronic Fillers:
Onset: Visible immediately, with results settling over 1–2 weeks
Duration: 6–18 months, depending on placement and metabolismBiostimulators (Sculptra® & Radiesse®):
Onset: Gradual collagen stimulation over 6–12 weeks
Duration: Results may last up to two years, with maintenance as needed
All injectable treatments at Meadowlark are performed by qualified nurse injectors under plastic surgeon oversight in our CPSA-accredited facility—ensuring precise, natural results tailored to your facial structure and long-term skin health.
Juvederm® and Restylane® meet Health Canada's rigorous standards for hyaluronic acid fillers, while Sculptra® and Radiesse® are clinically established biostimulatory treatments designed to support collagen regeneration beneath the surface.
