Dermal Fillers – Soften Wrinkles and Facial Folds
Dermal fillers that are available in gel form when injected into the skin can soften wrinkles, lines and facial folds.
A Non-surgical Way to Make the Skin Look Young Again
Dermal fillers are the answer for those who don’t wish to undergo surgery to reduce the unattractive signs of aging. As a person grows older, vital components of the dermis are reduced, greatly affecting skin appearance. These components include collagen fibers, hyaluronic acid, and elastin. The skin therefore loses its elasticity and becomes sunken in places. Wrinkles, creases, and folds appear on the skin causing considerable distress to the aging individual. Dermal fillers soften wrinkles, lines and facial folds. They replace the components lost by the skin and enhance facial contour. They offer less downtime.
Restore Lost Volume and Fullness
Dermal fillers return to the face whatever fullness and volume it has lost, creating a youthful look. Available in gel form, they are injected into the skin. They can improve conditions such as the following:
Glabellar lines
Nasolabial folds
Marionette lines
Wrinkles on the forehead
They can also be used to improve recessed scars or a weak chin, and to augment thin lips.
More about Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are available under different brand names such as Juvederm, Hylaform, Radiesse, and Perlane. The patient’s consultant would determine whether a single filler or different fillers used in combination, would be required to achieve the desired aesthetic effect. How long the filler lasts would depend on factors including skin structure, age and lifestyle. Generally, their durability ranges from 3 months to 3 years.
Reactions and Complications
Reactions to dermal filler treatment include redness, swelling, bruising, discomfort and discoloration. The consultant should be notified if these symptoms continue beyond a few days. Possible complications include bacterial infection, ulceration, and allergic reaction but these complications rarely occur.
If you want to appear and feel youthful again, dermal filler treatment would be an ideal option.
