And A Little Bit About Dermal Fillers
Other substances used widely in Facial Rejuvenation procedures are Dermal Fillers such as Restylane and Hydrafill. These two products are based on on hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurring substance in the body. Hyaluronic acid binds with the water in our bodies and gives the skin that nice, plumped out look. As we get older, the amount of hyaluronic acid in the body decreases leading to sagging skin and skin folds.
Dermal Fillers Treatment are used to soften and contour lines, folds, and wrinkles. They are a minimally invasive procedure with little or no recovery time. They cost less then surgery and have minimal risks. Dermal fillers have become a very trendy way to address the aging process. They can be injected into areas with fine lines and wrinkles and are also effective for increasing fullness to narrow lips, enhancing sunken cheeks and can even be used to contour the bridge of the nose.
Injections of dermal fillers can be a little uncomfortable so it’s a good idea to have your treatment carried out by a Dentist or a Doctor who is qualified in these procedures.They can administer Local Anaesthetic injections to make your treatment much more comfortable. Results are visible almost immediately which is very good news for patients. Injections will need to be repeated after 6 – 9 months as the effects gradually diminish, although sometimes they can last over a year. The effects are likely to disappear faster in areas that are more affected by muscle movement.
Dermal fillers are available in different grades or thicknesses and can be used to treat naso-labial lines, smoker’s lines, lip enhancement, deep brow creases and other facial areas
Dermal fillers simply allow practitioners to inject those naturally occurring components back into the dermis, thereby restoring skin’s volume and minimizing the appearance of wrinkles, folds, and scars. Dermal fillers are most commonly sought as a safe and effective way to diminish the appearance of fine lines and facial wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, and oral commissures. They are the natural, safe and instant way to soften your lines and folds.
