leaves with better-feeling feet.
A small amount of dermal filler is injected underneath the skin in areas such as the balls of the foot and toe joints, where extra support is needed. The extra padding gives a natural cushion to your feet to make your daily life more comfortable allowing you to wear heels in style.
Dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid (HA), which is most frequently used to cushion the foot. HA is a substance that is naturally found in your body that attracts and binds to water, providing lubrication, hydration, and cushion.

The filler injections are added to the problem area of the foot to address foot pain resulting in the “pillow effect”. These fillers are just like the ones that doctors inject into lips, cheeks and foreheads to achieve fullness and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Dermal fillers have allowed women to return to or continue using today’s extreme high heel shoes without pain. They get dermal filler injections to plump up the balls of their feet. These “pillows” last for up to 6 to 12 months. The result is better comfort without sacrificing style and professionalism.
Dermal fillers can also be used as a non-surgical treatment option for painful corns and calluses on the feet. Call us today, you do not have to live with foot pain.
