Derma Fillers - Non-Surgical Facelift Treatments

Derma Fillers Effective Anti aging Benefits

Derma fillers are used to rejuvenate, enhance shallow depressions, and create a younger, youthful contour to the face for men and women.

The use of injectable cosmetic fillers is considered a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that is becoming increasingly popular as an anti aging treatment due to the immediate long lasting results they provide.

Dermal fillers is an injectable substance that is used to help reverse the changes due to normal aging, restore fat-loss, fill in lines, smooth out and soften face wrinkles, and they can even be effective for smoothing the appearance of scar depressions.

The loss of elasticity, firmness, volume and tone weakens with age. Our collagen protein, elastin fibers, and hyaluronic acid support wears down and diminish as we grow older resulting in a thinner skin that is prone to wrinkles and sagging.

An anti aging treatment facial filler provides instant correction and restoration results. It will help restore a firm support structure for less money and risk compared to more invasive plastic surgeries such as a facelift.

Treatments are also used for facial contouring, enhance fullness to the lips (lip filler) or to correct marionette lines (The lines that extend below the corners of the mouth.)


What Can I Expect With Dermal Injections?

The cosmetic wrinkle fillers substance is skillfully injected just under the skin’s surface, in tiny amounts to the desired area to be treated. Brief, minimal discomfort may be felt. If needed, a topical numbing cream can be applied to the area.

Facial rejuvenation procedures takes about 15 minutes -1 hour, depending on how large the area to be treated. Most patients are comfortable returning to their daily activities immediately.

Derma fillers are very safe with a low incidence of allergic reaction. Side effects of mild soreness, redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site is expected after the treatment, which usually disappear within 1-2 days.


Types of Derma Fillers

Collagen based fillers is the best known lip fillers and wrinkle filler, but there are many other advanced varieties of face fillers physicians can use to plump up your skin and fill in the gaps, including fat from your own body (fat transfer).

Many factors are taken into consideration to determine the best product for the job. The decision for choosing the best product is based on the individual patient, condition of your skin, treatment location, budget, severity of the problem, and how long you want the results to last.

In some cases, multiple dermafillers can be used in various places in the face to provide optimal results to the entire face. This is sometimes referred to as a liquid facelift.

    Without touch-up treatments the derma fillers is gradually broken down and absorbed harmlessly by the body, gradually returning to its previous appearance.

    Duration of the filler can be enhanced by regular follow-up treatments before the product has completely dissolved and been absorbed by the body.

    Overall, fillers of all types help improve the facial appearance. Some fillers are best suited for certain areas of the face, have different consistencys, and duration times.

    A skilled doctor with an experienced injection technique is the most important consideration to get the best results.
