Dermal filler

What are dermal fillers, and how do you use them?

Dermal fillers are used to fill in wrinkles in the face and restore volume and fullness.

Our faces naturally lose subcutaneous fat as we get older. Smile lines and crow’s feet become increasingly visible as the facial muscles operate closer to the skin’s surface.

The facial skin stretches a little, which contributes to the loss of facial volume. Sun exposure, heredity, and lifestyle are among variables that affect facial skin.

What dermal fillers can do?

• Plumps thin lips
• Make shallow shapes more appealing
• Reduce the appearance of wrinkles and creases on the face.
• Enhance the appearance of scars that have been recessed.
• Reconstruct facial shape deformities
• Reduce or eliminate the lower lids’ shadow. Dermal fillers can be a valuable addition to

Face rejuvenation surgery for patients with early signs of ageing.

What should you expect with dermal fillers?
Noninvasive procedures such as fillers are attractive because they are quick and have minimal downtime. Your entire visit will take place in under an hour. Following your injections, I usually recommend that patients avoid exercise for 24 hours and remain upright for the remainder of the day. No naps or downward dogs!
The other perk to fillers is that results are immediate. Yes, you can peek in a mirror after your procedure and see instant results! Depending on the type and location of your filler, you may experience some discomfort during or after the injections, bruising and swelling. I advise my patients not to schedule their procedure before a big social event just in case they have bruising after their injections.
