Understanding HA Fillers
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are gel-like injectables used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Common areas include the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and under the eyes.
Dr. Iyengar customizes every filler treatment to create beautifully balanced features that enhance your natural structure. HA is a substance that naturally occurs in the body, so these fillers are safe, biocompatible, and gradually absorbed over time.
When should I consider HA fillers?
If you’re noticing volume loss in your cheeks, thinning lips, or deeper folds around the mouth, HA fillers offer a non-surgical way to refresh and rejuvenate your appearance. They’re also great for contouring the jawline or smoothing subtle asymmetries.
What are the details of this procedure?
Dr. Iyengar carefully places the filler using small injections to build volume and shape in targeted areas. The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes depending on the number of areas treated.
Results are visible immediately and continue to improve as swelling subsides. Most HA fillers last 6–18 months depending on the product used and the area treated.
Why choose Dr. Iyengar for fillers?
Filler treatments require more than technical skill—they demand an artistic eye. Dr. Iyengar’s background in facial surgery gives him a deep understanding of structure, balance, and symmetry. His goal is to enhance your features—not alter them—so results always look natural and refined.
What does recovery look like?
Downtime is minimal. You may experience mild swelling or bruising, but this usually resolves within a few days. Most patients return to their normal routine right after treatment.
You’ll leave the office looking refreshed, with immediate improvements that can be enjoyed for months.

There isn't a bad thing I can say about Dr. Iyengar or my experience. I found Dr. Iyengar after I had been to a friend's consultation up in Bellevue. I heard her quote and options, and knew I wanted to be closer to home for my procedure. I got in for my consultation the same week as I had inquired about my procedure. Dr. Iyengar won me over with the fact that we both grew up in Puyallup, we share a love for Olive Garden breadsticks, he is friendly, knowledgeable, has an incredible bedside manner, taking time to answer questions and get to know your needs, professional, and funny. From consultation to 3 weeks post op, and everything in between has been an experience that I would recommend to family and friends, and have recommend to anyone that asks. If you're going back and forth, do yourself a favor and stop looking. Dr. Iyengar is your guy!! My BFF and I are proof that this guy is THE. BEST.

I was having trouble getting a grip on some hand tools, and at a restaurant that used round table ware rather than flat and edged utensils I notice I couldn't seem to hold them from rolling. My primary physician referred me to Dr. Iyengar. Probably one of the better 20 mile appointments I've had.Dupuytren's contracture, is the culprit the good doctor diagnosed and showed how it prevents my hand from lying flat on a table top because the little, and ring finger were closing on the palm. I mentioned that the middle finger of that hand also locked often with some pain associated with the nuisance. "We can take care of these two procedures today if you'd like" he offered and it made sense if he was willing, I'd travelled 20 miles for the diagnosis, getting the cure at the same time was more than just good sense.
In less than an hour, a pain free hour, the troublesome contracting cord had been freed up and a needle shot of a drug, perhaps cortisone, though I've forgotten, and I was on my way to the physical therapist to learn what I could do following up on the minimal surgery.
From the time I entered the office until I left was a pleasant and friendly exchange of information and personal stories. I didn't wait long, so short I could not get through reading the diplomas and advanced training and education certificates hanging on the walls that Dr. Iyengar has garnered from his studies and surgical skills.
The good doctor keeps a friendly atmosphere for staff and patients, for me 20 miles no longer seemed inconvenient. I'll see him for the followup and look forward to that. You'll be in good hands with Dr. Iyengar and staff.

I have lived my entire adult life self conscious of my neck sagging and double chin. Dr. Iyengar took such good care and gave me a tight neck and for once in my life I have a jawline! I had a neck and lower face lift with lipo in my chin.
