Filler
What is filler?
Dermal fillers are used to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Dermal fillers are made up of a jelly-like substance called hyaluronic acid, which is a natural occurring molecule that hydrates the skin by attracting moisture.
​
Dermal fillers can be used for various purposes, including:
-
Smoothing wrinkles and fine lines: Fillers can be injected into lines and wrinkles to make them less noticeable.
-
Restoring lost volume: As people age, they tend to lose facial volume, which can make the face look sunken. Dermal fillers can restore volume to areas like the cheeks and temples.
-
Enhancing lips: Fillers can be used to augment and define the lips.
-
Improving facial contours: Fillers can help reshape and define the jawline, chin, and cheekbones.
-
Reducing under-eye hollows: Dermal fillers can minimize the appearance of dark circles and hollows under the eyes.
-
Scar correction: Some dermal fillers can be used to improve the appearance of acne scars or other types of scarring.
-
Hand rejuvenation: Fillers can also be used to add volume to the back of the hands, making them appear more youthful.
