Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are administered beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines, soften creases, and enhance facial contours.

The most common type of filler is made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that helps keep it plump and hydrated.

How It Works

Fillers work by adding volume to the treated areas. They can fill in wrinkles, lines, and hollow areas, giving a more youthful appearance. The results are immediate and can last from several months to a couple of years, depending on the type of filler used.

Comparison

  • Mechanism: Cosmetic fillers relax muscles to reduce wrinkles, while dermal fillers add volume to smooth out lines and enhance facial contours.
  • Duration: Cosmetic filler results last 3-6 months, whereas dermal fillers can last from several months to 2 years.
  • Uses: Cosmetic fillers are primarily used for dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement, while dermal fillers are used for static wrinkles, volume loss, and facial contouring.

FAQs

When is treatment contraindicated?

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, active skin infections or neuro-muscular conditions. Your practitioner will help you determine if you are suitable for treatment in your initial consultation.
