Filler

What Are Fillers?

Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines, soften creases, and enhance facial contours. They are a popular, non-surgical treatment for achieving a refreshed and youthful appearance.

When and Why Are Fillers Used?

• Volume Loss: As we age, the skin loses collagen, fat, and elasticity, leading to a loss of volume. Fillers help replenish these areas for a fuller, more youthful look.
• Wrinkle Reduction: Fillers can smooth out static wrinkles and fine lines caused by aging or repetitive facial movements.
• Facial Contouring: Enhance facial features such as the cheeks, jawline, and lips for improved symmetry and definition.
• Hydration: Many fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which attracts moisture, keeping the skin plump and hydrated.

Where Can Fillers Be Used?

Dermal fillers are versatile and can be used in multiple areas of the face, including:

• Lips: Enhance lip size, shape, and definition.
• Cheeks: Restore volume and lift for a contoured appearance.
• Nasolabial Folds: Smooth lines running from the nose to the mouth.
• Under-Eye Area: Reduce hollows and improve dark circles.
• Jawline and Chin: Enhance jawline structure and balance chin proportions.
• Temples: Fill in sunken areas for a fuller look.

Juvederm

Juvederm is a family of hyaluronic acid-based fillers known for their smooth consistency. It works well for adding volume to lips, cheeks, and smoothing facial wrinkles. Juvederm products like Voluma and Vollure provide long-lasting results, often up to 12-18 months.

Restylane

Restylane is also a hyaluronic acid filler but with a slightly firmer texture, making it ideal for precise applications like under the eyes or for defining lips. It offers natural-looking results and typically lasts 6-12 months.

RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid)

RHA fillers are designed to adapt to facial movements, providing a more natural look when smiling, talking, or expressing. They are particularly suited for dynamic wrinkles and areas requiring flexibility, with results lasting up to 15 months.

Versa

Versa is a hyaluronic acid filler known for its even consistency, which reduces post-treatment swelling. It is ideal for smoothing moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and for enhancing lips, with results lasting approximately 6-12 months.
