what we do best

  As you age, the skin on your face gets thinner and drier. The fat layer underneath the skin starts to shrink and you lose muscle tone. In time, you start to notice wrinkles and your face looks less full than it did before. 

This is when many people start to consider dermal fillers. Fillers work against the aging process by introducing some of the chemical compounds that make skin look youthful back into your face. 

  There are many dermal fillers on the market today. Each features a different combination of compounds, many of which occur naturally in the body. 

One of the most popular of these is hyaluronic acid, a lubricating gel that your body produces to keep tissues moisturized, flexible, and stretchy. It’s present in high concentrations in the skin, cartilage, joint fluids, and connective tissues. 

Medical science has learned how to extract hyaluronic acid to restore damaged and aging tissue. People with arthritis often receive hyaluronic acid injections to provide extra joint protection and reduce discomfort. Hyaluronic acid is the main ingredient in popular dermal filler brands. 

Dermal fillers treat many of the visible signs of aging. They can: 

• ‌Add volume to the face 
• ‌Plump up the cheeks 
• ‌Smooth out facial wrinkles 
• ‌Lessen the appearance of acne, burn, and wound scars‌ 
• Redefine the lips 

‌Many people seek out dermal fillers to look and feel younger. They can be very effective in treating early signs of aging such as sunken cheeks, frown lines, and crow’s feet 

Dermal fillers are very safe. Their ingredients are either natural or biocompatible, which means that they do their job in the body without causing any adverse reactions. 

Dermal fillers are temporary treatments. Your body will break down the ingredients in any filler after six months or so. After that, you’ll notice your pre-treatment contours start to return. 

You can maintain your look by going back for touch-up treatments. You’ll probably find that once or twice a year is enough, depending on how your body responds.  

Most dermal fillers have no long-term effects if used in moderation. Your body simply breaks them down and gets rid of them, leaving virtually no trace. 

Dermal fillers are appropriate for most healthy adults. People with certain medical conditions, such as bleeding disorders or allergies to filler ingredients, shouldn’t get dermal fillers.
