Fillers
Dermal fillers are a popular treatment used to restore volume and plumpness to areas of the face that have lost fullness over time. They work by injecting a gel-like substance made from hyaluronic acid, a natural compound found in the body, into the treatment area. The filler then binds to water molecules, resulting in a plumping effect that can smooth out wrinkles, creases, and fine lines.
There are many types of dermal fillers available, each with its own unique characteristics and benefits. Some are designed to add volume and contour to the cheeks, lips, or chin, while others are better suited for filling in deep wrinkles or creases. The type of filler used will depend on the individual’s unique needs and desired outcome. One of the advantages of dermal fillers is that they offer immediate results that can last for several months or even up to a year or more.
