RHA Family: Fillers for Wrinkles and Volume Loss
The effects of time, environmental exposure, gravity, and genetics all contribute to the appearance of our skin and its architecture. Dermal fillers have revolutionized the way we are able to correct aging via simple injections. These quick, very low downtime procedures can restore volume, soften lines and wrinkles, redrape tissues, and enhance well-being.
The RHA family offers several different hyaluronic acid based fillers that can be customized for injections in different areas and depths. When used comprehensively they allow for total skin rejuvenation without surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions About RHA Fillers
What makes RHA fillers different from other dermal fillers?
RHA fillers are part of a newer generation of hyaluronic acid-based injectables specifically designed to adapt to dynamic facial movement. Unlike traditional fillers, which can sometimes appear stiff or overly plumped when the face is in motion, RHA fillers are engineered to stretch and move with your facial expressions. This creates a more natural look whether you're smiling, frowning, or at rest. The advanced formulation allows for deeper correction of etched-in lines while maintaining soft tissue flexibility and hydration. Many patients also choose to combine RHA with other flexible fillers such as Belotero Balance or products from the Restylane Family to further customize their results.
How long do the results from RHA fillers typically last?
On average, patients can expect results from RHA fillers to last between 6 months to 1 year. This depends on the specific filler used, the area treated, and individual lifestyle factors such as metabolism, skincare habits, and sun exposure. Regular follow-up treatments can help maintain consistent, refreshed results over time. Dr. Evan A. Rieder at 36 North Moore Dermatology customizes your treatment plan to ensure longevity and effectiveness.
Are RHA filler treatments painful?
Most patients find RHA filler injections to be very tolerable. A topical anesthetic is applied beforehand to numb the area, making the process relatively comfortable. You might feel a light pinch or pressure during the injection, but the overall experience is brief and mild. The use of advanced techniques and tools, such as blunt-tipped cannulas, helps minimize discomfort and reduce potential bruising or swelling.
What should I expect after my RHA filler appointment?
You can return to most of your normal activities right after your session. Some minor swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites is possible, but these side effects are generally mild and resolve within a few days. The results are visible immediately, and over the next few days, your skin will continue to settle and look even more refined. Dr. Rieder provides thorough aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results. Many patients enhance their overall outcome by pairing fillers with Daxxify or Botox to address dynamic wrinkles and maintain smoother skin over time.
Who is a good candidate for RHA fillers?
RHA fillers are ideal for adults experiencing early to moderate signs of facial aging, including volume loss, fine lines, and deeper wrinkles. If you want a non-surgical solution that delivers natural-looking, flexible results, RHA might be right for you.
