Radiance Resurfacing Facial in Medfield, MA: FAQ, Benefits & How It Transforms Dull or Textured Skin

What is the Radiance Resurfacing Facial?
It’s a treatment that focuses on exfoliation + renewal.
This facial uses controlled resurfacing techniques (like enzymes, mild acids, or polishing exfoliants) to remove dull, dead cells and stimulate fresh, healthy skin underneath.
Benefits include:
- Brighter skin tone
 - Smoother texture
 - Refined pores
 - Improved clarity
 - Softer fine lines
 - More even complexion
 
Think of it as a deep refresh that wakes your skin up.
Who is this facial best for?
This treatment is perfect if you have:
- Dull or uneven skin
 - Rough texture or enlarged pores
 - Early signs of aging
 - Sun damage or discoloration
 - Acne scars or post-breakout marks
 - “Tired” looking complexion
 - Makeup that doesn’t go on smoothly
 
It’s ideal for anyone who wants clearer, more radiant, youthful-looking skin.
What are dermal fillers and how do they work?
Dermal fillers are injectable gels (often made of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin) that restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They work by adding structure beneath the skin, instantly improving shape and softness.
Different filler types are used for different goals:
- Adding volume to cheeks or temples
 - Softening smile lines (nasolabial folds)
 - Enhancing lips naturally
 - Lifting the jawline or chin
 - Filling under-eye hollows
 - Restoring overall facial balance
 
What areas can dermal fillers treat?
Common treatment areas include:
- Cheeks
 - Lips
 - Chin
 - Jawline
 - Marionette lines
 - Nasolabial folds
 - Under eyes (tear troughs)
 - Temples
 - Hands (in some cases)
 
Your injector will analyze your facial anatomy and recommend the best placement for natural results.
Will I look overfilled or fake?
Not at BeautyEtc.
Our approach is subtle and artistic—we enhance your natural features and maintain facial harmony. Our injectors are highly trained in facial proportions and customize every treatment to your face shape and goals.
We believe the best filler results make people say:
 “You look amazing—what’s your secret?” not “Did you get work done?”
How long do dermal fillers last?
 
Longevity depends on the filler used and the area treated, but typically:
- Lips: 6–12 months
 - Cheeks/Jawline/Chin: 12–18 months
 - Nasolabial folds/Marionette lines: 9–12 months
 - Under eyes: up to 12–18 months (delicate area, long-lasting)
 
Over time, hyaluronic acid fillers gradually dissolve naturally in the body.
Do fillers hurt?
Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable it is.
Why it’s tolerable:
- We use topical numbing cream
 - Many fillers contain lidocaine (a numbing agent)
 - Techniques are gentle and precise
 
You may feel slight pressure or pinches, but the treatment is quick and very manageable.
What happens during the appointment?
 
- Consultation and facial assessment
 - Custom treatment plan
 - Numbing (if needed)
 - Injection using needle or cannula
 - Gentle shaping/massaging of the filler
 - Aftercare instructions
 
Most appointments take 30–45 minutes.
Is there downtime?
Minimal. Most people resume normal activities immediately.
You may experience:
- Mild swelling (especially lips)
 - Tenderness
 - Redness
 - Small bruises (varies by person)
 
These typically resolve within a few days. We’ll give you tips to speed up healing and minimize bruising.
Are dermal fillers safe?
Yes—when performed by licensed, experienced medical professionals.
At BeautyEtc Aesthetics:
- We use only FDA-approved fillers
 - In a sterile, medical environment
 - With medically trained injectors
 
We also can dissolve hyaluronic acid fillers if needed, which adds an extra layer of safety and flexibility.
How much filler will I need?
It depends on:
- Treatment area
 - Amount of volume loss
 - Desired results
 - Your facial structure
 
Some treatments only need 1 syringe, while full facial balancing may require multiple. During your consultation, we give you a customized plan with clear expectations—no surprises.
Can dermal fillers be combined with other treatments?
Yes! In fact, combination treatments can create even better outcomes.
Popular pairings:
- Dysport + Filler → smooth + lift
 - Sculptra + Filler → long-term collagen + instant volume
 - Facials or Microneedling → improve skin quality + filler structure
 - Medical-grade skincare → maintain results longer
 
We design complete rejuvenation plans tailored to your goals.
How soon will I see results?
Immediately! You’ll notice volume and shape right away.
However, final results appear after 1–2 weeks when any swelling settles and filler integrates with your tissue.
How long is recovery?
Most people feel completely normal within 1–3 days.
We recommend:
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours
 - Avoid alcohol and blood thinners 24 hours before/after
 - Don’t massage or press on treated areas
 - Sleep on your back the first night if possible
 
Who is a good candidate for dermal fillers?
You may be ideal if you:
- Want to restore volume or enhance features
 - Prefer a non-surgical option
 - Want immediate results
 - Are in good general health
 - Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
