Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are the non-surgical way to achieve younger looking skin and used as an effective treatment for reduce deep lines and wrinkles, fill hollows and smooth the contours of your face.
WHAT DOES DERMAL FILLERS TREAT?Sun exposure, insufficient skin care, smoking, air pollution, unhealthy lifestyles and diet and even stress can all causes your aging appearance. When the skin ages, one of the evident signs of aging are wrinkles formation. The individual’s skin cells divide at a slower rate and the inner skin deteriorates. Wrinkles emerge because the major structural protein of the skin known as collagen, volume generating hyaluronic acid and elastin decrease. The face can also begin to lose volume, giving cheeks a sunken and ‘dragged down’ appearance. Dermal fillers can plump up your skin, smooth wrinkles and fill out deep lines by replacing the collagen lost due to natural aging or skin damage.
HOW DOES DERMAL FILLERS WORKS AND WHAT’S INVOLVED?The procedure requires a consultation before. Medical history and any medications you are taking need to be discussed, as well as your expectations. The face is cleansed, marked for treatment sites, and injections are administered. This process takes usually less than an hour, and there is usually little if any down time.
