Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to restore volume and fullness to the face, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, lines, and hollow areas. They are typically made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, or other biocompatible materials. 

As we age, bone density decreases and facial fat thins, leading to volume loss, folds, and wrinkles. The procedure removes fine lines, smoothens skin, and provides hydration. Fillers can plump small areas like lips and brows or re-contour larger areas like cheeks and jawlines.

Filler consistency varies: soft for lips, denser for heavy contouring. The pain-free treatment takes 30-45 minutes, yielding instant results lasting 12-14 months. We offer complementary treatments to enhance filler results, such as skin tone restoration and anti-wrinkle treatments.

 

Dermal fillers can be used for various purposes in facial aesthetics and rejuvenation. Some common uses include:

  1. Softening facial lines and wrinkles: Fillers can be injected into areas with lines and wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines (lines around the mouth), to smooth out the skin and restore a more youthful appearance.
  2. Adding volume to the lips: Fillers can plump up thin or aging lips, enhancing their shape and fullness.
  3. Enhancing cheekbones and jawline: By injecting fillers strategically along the cheekbones and jawline, facial contours can be enhanced, providing a more defined and youthful appearance.
  4. Filling in hollow areas: Fillers can be used to fill in hollow areas of the face, such as under the eyes (tear troughs) or in the temples, to restore volume and reduce the appearance of sunken or tired-looking areas.
  5. Correcting scars: Dermal fillers can help improve the appearance of certain types of scars, such as acne scars or depressed scars, by filling in the indentation and smoothing out the skin.
  6. Rejuvenating hands: Fillers can also be injected into the back of the hands to plump up the skin and reduce the visibility of tendons and veins, creating a more youthful appearance.

 

These are just a few examples of the many uses of dermal fillers in aesthetic medicine. The specific treatment plan will depend on individual goals and concerns.
