Dermal Filler
What is it?
Dermal fillers are a type of non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to enhance or restore volume to the face and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, lines, and other signs of aging. They are injectable substances that are typically made from a variety of materials, mainly including hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid fillers are the most commonly used type and work the best within the layers of the skin, binding with the hyaluronic acid we make in our own bodies.
How does it interact with skin?
The specific interaction between the dermal filler and the skin can vary depending on the type of filler, the treatment area, and the patient’s individual characteristics. It’s important to consult with a qualified medical professional to determine which dermal filler is best suited for your cosmetic goals and to discuss potential risks and benefits.
What’s the downtime?
After the treatment, you may experience some redness, swelling, and possibly minor bruising at the injection site. These effects are common and typically resolve within a few days. Most people can resume their normal daily activities immediately after the procedure. Avoiding Strenuous Activity, and follow-up appointments are always recommended to ensure best results are achieved.
How many treatments are needed?
Treatment intervals can vary widely depending on several factors, including the individual’s specific goals, the treatment area, the type of filler used, the provider’s technique, and the current condition of the skin. It’s important to understand that there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question.
