DERMA FILLERS
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. These minimally invasive procedures help to rejuvenate the face by plumping areas that have lost volume due to aging or other factors.
Most dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that attracts and retains moisture, giving the skin a youthful, hydrated appearance.
What Do Dermal Fillers Treat?
Dermal fillers are versatile and used in several areas of the face and body:
Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
Marionette lines
Cheeks (volume loss)
Lips (enhancement and hydration)
Chin and jawline definition
Under-eye hollows (tear troughs)
Nose (non-surgical rhinoplasty)
Hands (to restore volume)
How Long Do Results Last?
The effects of dermal fillers typically last 6 to 18 months, depending on the product used, treatment area, and individual metabolism. Fillers made from calcium hydroxylapatite or poly-L-lactic acid can last longer, sometimes up to two years.
