What are dermal fillers and how do they work?

Dermal fillers are used for facial aesthetic treatments and are injected into the skin. They are designed to effectively contour and create volume and revitalize the skin. Dermal fillers are based on Hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally exists in your body.

Hyaluronic acid is a sugar molecule that exists naturally in almost all living organisms. It binds water and can act as a lubricant and shock absorber in movable parts of the body such as joints. It is also important for the transport of nutrients and in regulating water balance in the skin.

Dermal fillers work by boosting the skin’s supply of hyaluronic acid, dermal fillers revitalize and add volume to the skin and give a natural softer look.
Dermal filler injections provide an easy way to smooth the skin and give a more youthful appearance. The result of a single treatment can be seen instantly and can last for around 6 to 12 months. Dermal filler injections can give a natural-looking result that does not affect facial expression. As your face changes over time, dermal fillers allow you to control your looks subtly as you age.

Dermal fillers can be used to shape facial contours, such as cheeks and chin, and revitalize the skin.

The most common areas treated are:

• Volumize Lips
• Plump Cheeks
• Reshape the Chin
• Eliminate Marionette Lines & Nasolabial Folds
