Defy The Signs of Aging with Filler!

Dermal Fillers for Aging

It’s no secret that as we age, our skin begins to sag. This is quite normal for just about everyone. But there is a way to reduce those signs of aging and even help restore a youthful and vibrant appearance. Dermal fillers are ideal for reversing some of the most common signs of aging.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers help to diminish facial lines and restore volume as well as fullness to the face.

With age, our facial muscles are working closer to the skin surface so things like smile lines and crow’s feet become a bit more apparent. Our facial skin also stretches so this will add to some loss of facial volume over time. But factors like sun exposure, genetics and even lifestyle can affect our skin’s volume and fullness.

When injected into areas such as the lips and cheeks, dermal fillers will help to plump and create shape to the area. Other popular areas that we use filler in are around the eyes, mouth and even the jawline.

The treatment usually takes less than half an hour and the recovery time is quite minimal. There are several different kinds of dermal fillers so make sure to discuss all options with a provider. As with any cosmetic procedure, there are risks, including bruising and swelling of the injection site. Results can vary in length, so make sure to get a consultation before choosing your syringe.

Why Use Dermal Fillers?

Collagen loss is also another factor that comes with age. When we lose collagen, our skin begins to lose elasticity and volume, becoming thinner and even starts to sag.

Dermal fillers can help to add volume to sagging skin, create more symmetrical facial features and even plump up the lips and cheeks. A few other ways they can help are by:

• Plump thin lips
• Enhance shallow contours
• Soften facial creases
• Improve the appearance of recesses scars
• Decrease under-eye shadows

One of the most recognizable ingredients in dermal fillers is hyaluronic acid, a substance that is found in soft tissue in the body and is responsible for making skin appear smooth and plump. When HA (hyaluronic acid) is injected under the surface of wrinkled skin, you can expect to experience results right away.

There are many different types of fillers with different results, meant for different areas of the face. Some of the common brands that we offer are Juvéderm, Restylane, Sculptra and Radiesse.

Are Dermal Fillers Safe?

Just like with any cosmetic procedure, there are some risks associated with dermal fillers. Some risks that you can expect are:

• Bruising or redness
• Swelling
• Pain and tenderness
• Itching or a rash

It is most advisable to avoid alcohol, makeup products and excess sweating for at least 24-hours after getting any dermal fillers in the face. This will allow for the filler to settle and any injuries from the injections to fully heal.

How Long Do They Last?

As mentioned above, the length of time that dermal fillers last can vary based on a few different factors. Where you got the injection as well as your skin can have an influence on the filler. That being said, results can last anywhere from two to six months and treatments after that can be done as necessary for maintenance.

One of our highly skilled practitioners will help you pick the best filler type as well as the best approach for injecting to help you achieve your desired results.
