What Are Pillows For Your FeetĀ®?

Loss of fat on the bottom of the foot is common as we age, especially in women. This can result in pain and burning, particularly in the ball of the foot. Thankfully, Dr. Levine and Dr. Landsman at Millennium Podiatry pioneered a new treatment, Pillows For Your FeetĀ®, to combat this fat loss using ultrasound guidance and injectable fillers.

The Pillows For Your Feet® procedure has earned its name after patients reported feeling like they were ā€œwalking on pillows!ā€ The solution for fashionistas, athletes, and others looking to improve the comfort of their daily activities has finally arrived in the mainstream.

How Do Pillows For Your FeetĀ® Injections Work?

Sculptraā„¢, a clinically proven anti-aging dermal filler, is injected into the bottom of the foot, stimulating natural collagen growth and revitalizing the foot’s padding to a more plump and youthful state. Immediate improvement occurs after only one treatment.

Foot Filler Injection Procedure

The foot filler treatment begins with a thorough consultation, during which our provider reviews the patient’s medical history to ensure the procedure is safe and appropriate. During this visit, we will discuss specific concerns, assess areas of volume loss or discomfort, and explain how foot fillers can improve both function and appearance. Patients are encouraged to ask questions about the materials used, expected results, and any potential risks to make an informed decision about the treatment.
Before the procedure, the targeted areas of the foot are carefully cleaned and prepped. A topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort and ensure the patient remains comfortable throughout the process. Our provider may also mark specific zones where the filler will be injected to achieve balanced and natural-looking results.
During the injection procedure, our podiatrist uses fine needles to carefully place the filler into areas with thinning padding or uneven volume. The goal is to restore cushioning, reduce pressure points, and improve overall foot comfort. Our provider will shape and smooth the filler as it is placed, adjusting the amount in each area for optimal results.
After the injections, our provider evaluates the treated areas to confirm that the volume is even and that the feet feel comfortable when standing or walking. Minor adjustments can be made during this stage to achieve symmetry and the desired level of cushioning. Patients are encouraged to provide feedback so the results align with both functional and aesthetic goals.

Pillows For Your FeetĀ® FAQs

No, most patients don’t find this treatment uncomfortable. During your consultation with Dr. Levine or Dr. Landsman, they can discuss options to minimize discomfort during the procedure, including local anesthesia to numb the treatment area.

Metatarsalgia can present with a number of symptoms, including:

Yes, foot fillers can help alleviate pain in the big toe, especially for patients who experience pain due to thinning natural padding. By restoring cushioning, fillers improve foot comfort and reduce pressure on sensitive areas, making activities like walking or wearing heels more comfortable. Many patients notice a significant decrease in discomfort and an overall improvement in how their feet feel throughout the day.
Treating fat pad atrophy early is essential because thinning padding can lead to excessive pressure on the entire ball of the foot and bony prominences, increasing the risk of conditions such as plantar fasciitis. Fat pad loss is a normal part of aging, but adding volume to targeted areas with fillers helps protect the foot, improve cushioning, and prevent further complications before discomfort becomes severe.
If your feet are just sore from a long day of work, standing, or wearing certain types of shoes, rest, massage, or a hot bath are typically enough to relieve the soreness. But if you have foot pain that persists for days or weeks, worsens with activity, or prevents you from engaging in normal activities, it may be recommended that you schedule an appointment with Dr. Levine or Dr. Landsman at Millennium Podiatry.
The longevity of cosmetic foot treatments depends on the type of filler used. Our foot and ankle surgeons use fillers made from poly-L-lactic acid, which can provide results lasting a year or more. Regular follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain cushioning, foot comfort, and overall effectiveness.
