Dermal fillers are gels made from naturally occurring hyaluronic acid; these gels are injected into areas of the skin where collagen loss has occurred. Dermal fillers come in different viscosities for use in different areas of the face. The most common areas for filler to be placed are the lips, cheekbones and nasal labial folds. Not only does this give a temporary boost to the health and volume of your skin, but it also stimulates collagen production. Depending on where you have filler placed you can expect it to last from 6-12 months.
If you are looking for a non-surgical face lift or you just want to smooth out a few fine lines or fill in deep-set wrinkles, injectables are for you. Millions of people use dermal fillers to achieve a more relaxed and smooth facial appearance while maintaining their freedom of expression. When used in conjunction with neurotoxins, the result is a whole new you!
As the skin ages, it begins to lose collagen filled with hyaluronic acid (HA). It is estimated by the age of thirty we lose about one percent of our collagen a year. Collagen and HA add structure and volume to the face, therefore a lack of HA causes the skin to sag and wrinkle – that’s where dermal fillers come into play.
Dermal fillers add volume to weakened facial features and can stimulate collagen growth. Each dermal filler has its own unique capabilities, but also possesses commonalities with other fillers. The first commonality is that they plump skin and gently lift it to restore collagen loss due to the normal aging process. Second, dermal fillers stimulate the body to create its own natural collagen, restoring your face to a more natural, youthful appearance.
Dermal fillers approved by the FDA are minimally invasive and very safe. In our office we use very strong topical anesthetics to aid in the placement of filler and make it as comfortable as possible. As with any procedure, there are possible risks, the most common being post-procedure bruising and swelling which are usually very minimal and resolve quickly.
Dermal filler treatments typically take 30-60 minutes and the amount of dermal filler needed will depend on volume loss and the areas you would like to restore to its natural beauty. You will see results immediately after treatment. $600 per syringe
