Dermal filler in Bloor West Village
Our Registered Nurses plan hyaluronic acid filler one area at a time, after a proper look at your face and a real conversation about what you’d like. We’re on Bloor Street West, a two-minute walk from Runnymede station.
Filler options and prices
Every area is assessed at your nurse consult first, so the plan fits your face rather than a menu. Prices are plus HST.
What to expect
Good to know
Who it suits
Adults in good general health who want a subtle change in one or two areas, and who are comfortable that results vary from person to person.
It isn’t for everyone. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, have an active skin infection or certain medical conditions, your nurse may suggest waiting or a different option.
Before your visit
Tell us about any medications, supplements, allergies and past filler. Some things that thin the blood can make bruising more likely, so ask before stopping anything your doctor prescribed.
If you have an event coming up, book at least two weeks ahead so any swelling or bruising has time to settle.
The first two weeks
Expect some swelling, tenderness and maybe a bruise or two. Skip hard workouts, saunas and alcohol for the first day or so, and avoid pressing on the area.
Filler can take up to two weeks to soften and settle. If something feels off, call us rather than waiting it out.
Risks, plainly
Common side effects include swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness and small lumps at the injection points. These usually settle within a few days to a couple of weeks. Less often, people get infection, uneven results or a reaction to the product. Your nurse reviews all risks at your consult.
Rarely, filler can block a blood vessel. Signs include severe or increasing pain, skin turning pale, dusky or blotchy, or any change in your vision. If you notice any of these, call us at 416 537 3333 right away, or go to the nearest emergency department if you can’t reach us.
Your questions
How much does dermal filler cost at SSKN Firm?
It depends on the area. Lips start at $225 (mini $225, half $350, full $600), cheek filler is $999, jawline contour is $999 and facial balancing is $1,650. Chin starts at $550, temples at $750, and under-eye treatment at $850 if you’re a candidate. All prices are plus HST.
Which filler do you use?
We use hyaluronic acid fillers made by Teoxane. Your nurse chooses the product for each area based on your assessment and what it’s licensed for in Canada, and explains that choice before anything happens.
How long does filler last?
Often somewhere between 6 and 18 months, depending on the area, the product and your own body. Lips tend to wear sooner than cheeks or jaw. Results vary, so we’d rather give you an honest range than a promise.
Does it hurt?
Most people describe pressure and a few sharp moments. We use numbing cream, and the filler contains a local anaesthetic, so it usually eases as we go.
What’s the downtime?
Many people go back to work the same day, though swelling, bruising and tenderness are common for a few days. Bruising can be hard to predict, so leave yourself room before photos or events.
Who does the injecting?
Registered Nurses, Nurse Jade and Nurse Tammy, under the orders of our medical director. The same nurse who plans your treatment usually does it, and they’re the person you call if you have questions afterward.
How much should I get the first time?
Less than you think. We usually start conservatively, let it settle for two weeks, then talk about whether to add more. It’s easier to build up than to take away.
Can filler be dissolved if I don’t like it?
Hyaluronic acid filler can usually be broken down with an enzyme injection if needed. It’s not something we do lightly, and your nurse would assess you first, but it’s a real option.
Can I do more than one area in a visit?
Often, yes. Facial balancing ($1,650) is a planned combination of areas. Your nurse will tell you honestly if spreading treatment across two visits would make more sense.
How is this different from Sculptra or Radiesse?
Those are different injectables, used for facial wrinkles and folds, and they work in a different way from hyaluronic acid filler. They also can’t be broken down with an enzyme. We have a separate page for them, and your nurse can talk through which fits your goals.
Do I pay a deposit to book?
Yes, a $50 deposit when you book, credited to your appointment. New clients also get $50 toward your first treatment of $200 or more within 30 days, one per client.
