Dermatologist Noëlle S. Sherber, M.D., F.A.A.D. was chosen as Washington, D.C.'s best for Injectables in Allure magazine's Directory. The January 2018 issue is titled "All Things Eyes" and highlighted experts who are adept at treating this delicate area, citing that "D.C. women who've tried doctor after doctor keep coming back to this one." 

Dermatologist Noëlle Sherber, M.D., F.A.A.D. was quoted in the Washingtonian about the increasing trend for men to get filler in their jawlines. She said, “People in Washington want to have an authoritative appearance, but one that suits their own face. They tend to be most of all interested in how to look like themselves a few years prior.”  

Jaw-defining filler products are on the rise as the procedure gets more popular. Voluma is a filler made from smooth hyaluronic acid. Filler for male jawlines has been gaining in popularity because it can restore men’s confidence in their appearance by turning back the clock a few years – with no downtime. 50-year-old DC interior designer Paul Sherrill, a patient of Dr. Sherber’s, said, “It really to me has been a wow effect. It’s one of those things that I’m left with immediate gratification.” 

Dr. Sherber explained a factor behind the rising popularity of male jaw fillers. “It can look like you have jowls along the face when you don’t in real life. I’ll have patients bring screen shots of how they look on camera and say, ‘What is happening with my face and neck?’” 

Dermatologist Noëlle S. Sherber, M.D., F.A.A.D. was quoted in Harper’s Bazaar in an article on how to make the most of facial injectables. Dr. Sherber recommended incorporating moisturizers with glycerin and hyaluronic acid prior to injections, since it will “dovetail off the internal hydrating effects of the injected hyaluronic acid fillers and enhance the skin-smoothing results of Botox."

Dr. Sherber also recommended caution with certain medications before injecting: “I advise my patients to discontinue non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, as well as fish oil supplements and the four Gs—gingko, ginger, garlic, and ginseng—two weeks prior to the procedure unless medically necessary.”

Salt is a huge no-no, especially with dermal fillers. Dr. Sherber said, "Injectable fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, which pulls in water, so loading up on salty foods beforehand can make you look more swollen the day after your procedure.”
