Dermal fillers are a popular beauty treatment that can add volume and fullness to the skin. Dermal fillers are made of various materials, including collagen, hyaluronic acid, and calcium hydroxylapatite. Dermal fillers can be used to treat a variety of concerns, including wrinkles, acne scars, and sunken cheeks.

Dermal fillers are usually administered using a small needle, and the filler is injected into the skin in small amounts, with immediate effects. Dermal fillers can last for up to two years, but results vary. If you are considering dermal fillers, consult with our team to find out if they are right for you.

Derma Fillers are becoming more popular for a good reason. Fillers are made of a gel-like substance usually made of hyaluronic acid, naturally found throughout the body, especially in the skin, and injected into specific areas of the lips and face to add fullness and lessen the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Here are the top five areas of the face that benefit from fillers to reduce deep lines and wrinkles;

1. Lips

Some people worry that getting derma fillers in their lips will leave them with lips that are overfilled and look unnatural. The truth is that fillers are easily customized to give you just the right amount of plumping, giving you a natural, youthful look. You can use as little or as much filler as you would like, and our experienced team will be happy to help you choose the right amount to give you the lips you desire.

2. Cheeks

As we age, we lose volume in our cheeks. Derma fillers are a great way to refresh your look by returning some of the fullness to your cheeks. Expertly injected fillers restore volume without looking puffy or frozen. Subtle filler use can provide a rejuvenated appearance without more invasive procedures like traditional facelifts. Enjoy the benefits of a more youthful appearance without the downtime that comes with more invasive treatments.

3. Forehead

Unlike Botox, which works to stop muscles from contracting to produce forehead wrinkles, derma fillers plump the wrinkles, giving a smoother, more youthful appearance. Deep forehead wrinkles can be erased with the precise placement of filler, and strategically placed forehead fillers can produce an eyebrow lift by increasing volume in that area.

4. Marionette Lines and Nasolabial Folds

A great smile deserves a great frame. Derma fillers can plump up the lines that form below the corners of the mouth, often referred to as “marionette lines.” These lines are particularly aging; using filler here can take years off your appearance. Nasolabial lines from the corners of the mouth up to the nose are frequently called “smile lines,” While smiling is awesome, these deep lines are not. Thankfully, these lines are easily fillable, restoring softness and fullness to your smile.

5. Reduce the Appearance of Scars

Sometimes, acne can leave deep scars that are difficult to ignore and can lead to a loss of confidence. Fortunately, derma fillers can be used to even out texture and lessen the appearance of acne scars, providing a boost to self-confidence.
