Dermal Fillers

As we age, our skin naturally loses its elasticity and firmness due to a variety of factors.

One of the main reasons for skin ageing is the gradual decline in collagen and elastin, which are proteins that give the skin its structure and elasticity.

Other factors that can contribute to skin ageing include sun exposure, genetics, and lifestyle factors such as smoking, drinking and poor nutrition.

Dermal fillers can help to improve the appearance of ageing skin by adding volume and restoring the skin's natural elasticity.

Dermal fillers are made up of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that is found in the skin and other tissues of the body. When injected into the skin, dermal fillers attract and retain water, which helps to plump up the skin and smooth out wrinkles.

Dermal fillers can be injected into various areas of the face to improve the appearance of wrinkles, hollow areas, and sunken cheeks.

The results of dermal filler treatment are typically immediate, and you should notice a visible improvement in the appearance of your skin.

The effects of dermal filler treatment are not permanent, and the product will gradually break down and be absorbed by the body over time.

Repeat treatments may be needed to maintain the desired results.

Dermal fillers are suitable for any category of age and who is looking to reduce the appearance of wrinkles or add volume to the skin.

They are often used to treat wrinkles and lines around the mouth, such as the nasolabial folds and marionette lines,  eyes,  such as tear trough area, and can be used to enhance the contours of the face, such as the cheekbones, lips or jawline.

However, it is important to note that dermal fillers are not suitable for everyone. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of allergies or skin infections, you should not use dermal fillers.

It is also important to consult with a qualified aesthetician before starting any treatment with dermal fillers to ensure that they are appropriate for you.

The duration of dermal filler treatment can vary depending on the specific product used and the area of the face being treated.

Some common dermal fillers can last for several months to a year or more, while others may only last for a few months.

The duration of the treatment can also depend on the individual's metabolism and the way their body breaks down the product.

It is important to note that dermal filler treatment is not a permanent solution and repeat treatments may be needed to maintain the desired results.
