What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers have become an increasingly popular cosmetic treatment in recent years. They are a non-surgical option for people who want to enhance their facial features, smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, and restore lost volume.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels that are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body. They are used to add volume to areas of the face that have lost volume due to age or other factors. They can be used to treat wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin, and can also be used to enhance facial features such as the lips and cheeks.

How do Dermal Fillers Work?

Dermal fillers work by plumping up the skin and restoring lost volume. Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds onto water, which gives the skin a plump and hydrated appearance. When injected into the skin, dermal fillers instantly add volume and smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. They also stimulate collagen production, which can further improve the texture and elasticity of the skin over time.

What to Expect During the Treatment

Before the treatment, we will discuss your goals and expectations and recommend the type and amount of filler that is best for your needs. The treatment involves injecting the filler into the targeted areas of the face using a fine needle or cannula. You may experience some mild discomfort during the treatment, but most people find it to be tolerable. The treatment usually takes around 1 hour, and very little downtime is required.

What to Expect After the Treatment

After the treatment, you may experience some mild swelling, bruising, or redness in the treated area. This is normal and should subside within a few days. You can return to your normal activities after the treatment, but it's important to avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours. The results of dermal fillers can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated.

Dermal fillers are a safe and an effective way to enhance your facial features and restore lost volume. They are a non-surgical option that can give you a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
