DERMAL FILLERS
Explained
Did you know that we lose 1 teaspoon of hyaluronic acid every decade of our lives?
All our dermal fillers are based on hyaluronic acid.
Dermal fillers are a popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment used in aesthetics to enhance facial features, restore volume, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines.
WHAT IS HYLAURON IC ACID?
Hyaluronic Acid: A naturally occurring substance in the body, hyaluronic acid retains moisture and keeps the skin hydrated and plump. However, as we age, the levels of hyaluronic acid in our skin diminish, leading to the loss of volume and the formation of wrinkles.
WHAT ARE DERMAL FILLERS?
Dermal fillers are injectable substances that are used to add volume to the skin and underlying tissues. They are typically made of various materials, including hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, and collagen. The choice of filler depends on the specific treatment area and the desired results.
HOW DERMAL FILLERS WORK
Dermal fillers work by plumping up the skin and underlying tissues. They can fill in wrinkles, lines, and hollow areas to create a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Some fillers also stimulate the body's natural collagen production, which can lead to longer-lasting results.
COMMON USES
Dermal fillers are used for a variety of aesthetic purposes, including:
-
Wrinkle Reduction:
Fillers can be used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, such as smile lines (nasolabial folds), marionette lines, and crow's feet.
-
Lip Augmentation:
Fillers are commonly used to enhance lip volume and shape.
-
Cheek and Temple Enhancement:
Fillers can add volume to the cheeks and temples for a more youthful contour.
-
Under-Eye Rejuvenation:
Fillers can be used to reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollows under the eyes.
-
Jawline and Chin Contouring:
Fillers can improve the definition and symmetry of the jawline and chin.
-
Nose Reshaping:
Non-surgical rhinoplasty can be achieved with dermal fillers.
-
Hand Rejuvenation:
Fillers can be used to restore volume to aging hands.
PROCEDURE
The procedure involves injecting the chosen dermal filler into the target area. Numbing creams or local anesthesia may be applied to minimize discomfort. The treatment typically takes 15 to 30 minutes, and patients can usually resume their daily activities immediately after.
RESULTS & DURATION
The results of dermal filler treatments are typically visible immediately, and they can last from several months to up to two years, depending on the type of filler used. Over time, the body gradually absorbs the filler, so maintenance treatments are often required to maintain the desired look.
SAFETY & SIDE EFFECTS
Dermal fillers are considered safe when administered by a qualified and experienced practitioner. Common side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, and minor discomfort at the injection site. Serious complications are rare but can include infection, lumps, and allergic reactions.
Before getting dermal filler treatment, it's crucial to consult with us to discuss your goals and any potential risks.
