Dermal Fillers

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to add volume, smooth lines and wrinkles, and restore youthful contours to the face. They work by plumping up areas that have lost volume due to aging or other factors, helping to rejuvenate the skin and create a more youthful appearance.

The most common types of dermal fillers contain substances like hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, and collagen. Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Juvederm and Restylane, are among the most widely used and are known for their ability to attract and retain moisture, giving the skin a hydrated and plump look.

During a dermal filler treatment, a healthcare professional injects the filler substance into specific areas of the face, targeting wrinkles, lines, or areas that have lost volume. The procedure usually takes around 15 to 30 minutes, and results are typically visible immediately, although there might be some initial swelling or redness that subsides within a few days.

The effects of dermal fillers are temporary, with results lasting anywhere from six months to two years, depending on the type of filler used and the individual’s metabolism. Repeat treatments are often necessary to maintain the desired results over time.
