Fillers: Restore Volume, Redefine Your Natural Beauty
As we age, we naturally lose volume in our cheeks, lips, and around the eyes, which can make us look more tired or older than we feel. Dermal fillers are one of the most effective ways to restore that volume, soften lines, and bring your features back into harmony, all without surgery and with results you can see immediately. At Transformation MediSpa, Kathy Haney has been performing filler treatments in Houston for over 20 years. She was among the first injectors in the country to work with Radiesse, and she brings that depth of experience to every syringe she places.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are FDA-approved injectable gels that add volume, smooth lines, and restore youthful contours to the face and hands. Unlike neurotoxins, which relax muscles, fillers physically fill in areas that have lost volume or developed deeper lines over time. Most fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, making them safe, well-tolerated, and reversible if needed. Radiesse works differently by stimulating your body's own collagen production for longer-lasting structural support.
Common treatment areas include:
- Lips (volume and definition)
- Cheeks and midface volume
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Marionette lines
- Under-eye hollows (tear troughs)
- Jawline definition
- Chin projection
- Temple hollowing
- Nose reshaping (non-surgical rhinoplasty)
- Hand rejuvenation
Which Filler Is Right for You?
We offer three filler families so Kathy can match the right product to your specific goals, anatomy, and lifestyle. Every recommendation is based on what is genuinely best for your face, not a product quota.
Radiesse
Radiesse is a calcium-based filler that both immediately adds volume and stimulates your body's natural collagen production over time. It provides exceptional structural support for cheeks, jawlines, and hands. Kathy was among the first injectors in Houston and the U.S. to work with Radiesse, giving her a level of expertise with this product that is rare in the city.
Restylane
Restylane is a hyaluronic acid filler family with several specialized formulas, each designed for a specific area or concern. From subtle lip enhancement to deep cheek volume to fine line smoothing, there is a Restylane product tailored for the job. It integrates naturally with your tissue for results that look and feel like you.
RHA Collection
RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) is the first filler collection specifically designed to move with your face. Traditional fillers can sometimes look stiff in areas of high movement. RHA's unique formulation adapts dynamically, making it ideal for treating lines and folds in expressive areas of the face.
Restylane Product Guide
The Restylane family offers several specialized formulas. During your consultation, Kathy will determine which product or combination of products is right for your specific goals.
Restylane
The original formula. Ideal for moderate facial wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and adding subtle lip volume with a natural finish.
Restylane Lyft
A thicker formula designed for deeper volume loss in the cheeks and midface, as well as hand rejuvenation.
Restylane Refyne
A flexible formula for softening moderate nasolabial folds and marionette lines while preserving natural facial movement.
Restylane Defyne
Designed for deeper lines and more significant volume loss. Provides support in areas that need a firmer structural result.
Restylane Contour
Specifically formulated for cheek augmentation and contouring, delivering natural-looking lift and definition.
Restylane Kysse
Kathy's go-to for lip enhancement. Kysse is specially designed for the lips, providing soft, natural volume and color vibrancy that moves with every expression.
RHA Collection Guide
The RHA Collection offers four formulas, each calibrated for different levels of tissue depth and movement.
RHA Redensity
The lightest formula in the collection, specifically designed for the delicate skin around the mouth and perioral lines where other fillers can look unnatural.
RHA 2
A medium-density formula for moderate dynamic lines and wrinkles in areas of regular facial movement.
RHA 3
A versatile formula for moderate to severe dynamic facial lines, including nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
RHA 4
The most robust formula in the collection, designed for deeper folds and areas requiring significant volume and structural support.

What to Expect
Before Your Appointment
Arrive with a clean face. Avoid blood thinners like aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, or Vitamin E for several days beforehand to reduce bruising risk. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment. Check with your physician before stopping any prescribed medications.
During Your Appointment
Kathy will assess your facial anatomy, review your goals, and map out the injection plan. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand for comfort. Most fillers also contain lidocaine to further minimize discomfort during the treatment. The actual injections typically take 20 to 45 minutes depending on the areas treated.
After Your Appointment
Some swelling, redness, and mild bruising at injection sites is normal and typically resolves within a few days to one week. Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat (saunas, hot yoga), and direct sun exposure for 24 to 48 hours. Do not massage the treated areas unless instructed by Kathy.
Results Timeline
Results from most fillers are visible immediately, though initial swelling may temporarily exaggerate the effect. Final results are typically visible within 1 to 2 weeks once swelling fully resolves. Kathy recommends a follow-up appointment at 2 weeks for new patients to assess results and make any refinements.
Why Get Your Fillers at Transformation
Fillers require a provider who understands facial anatomy at a deep level. Placed correctly, they create beautiful, natural results. Placed incorrectly, they can look overdone or uneven. Kathy's 20 plus years of experience, combined with her early adoption of leading filler technologies like Radiesse, means you are in exceptionally skilled hands. She takes the time to study your face before she ever picks up a syringe, and her philosophy of conservative, thoughtful enhancement means you will always look like yourself, just a more refreshed version.
Pioneer-Level Experience
Kathy was among the first injectors in Houston and the U.S. to offer Radiesse. That kind of early expertise translates directly into better, more refined results for her patients today.
One Provider, Every Time
You see Kathy at every visit. She knows your face, your history, and your goals. That continuity leads to better outcomes and a more comfortable experience than starting over with someone new each time.
Natural Results Philosophy
Kathy's goal is never to change your face. It is to restore what time has taken and enhance what is already there. Patients consistently describe her work as natural, tasteful, and confidence-boosting.
Free Consultations, No Pressure
We never rush you into a decision. Your consultation is always free and there is no obligation to proceed. We would rather you leave informed and confident than hurried into a treatment you are not ready for.
