Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable cosmetic treatments used to restore volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial features. They are typically made of a gel-like substance, such as hyaluronic acid, which is naturally found in the body and helps to hydrate and plump up the skin. Other types of fillers may be made from synthetic materials or collagen.

Dermal fillers can be used to treat a variety of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, sunken cheeks, thin lips, and under-eye hollows. They can also be used to enhance the contours of the face and create a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

Dermal filler treatments are typically performed by a licensed healthcare professional, such as a dermatologist or plastic surgeon, and involve injecting the filler into specific areas of the face using a fine needle. The results are typically immediate and can last for several months to a year, depending on the type of filler used and the individual’s skin.

People who are in good physical health and do not have any underlying health conditions that could affect healing are generally considered suitable candidates. Other factors include not being a smoker and not having deep lines or other issues that a facelift or other surgical procedure would present stronger results.
