Filler
What is Filler?
Dermal fillers are non-surgical injectable treatments designed to restore lost facial volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers work by adding volume beneath the skin, helping to improve areas affected by ageing or naturally less-defined facial features. Different filler types offer different benefits, and the most suitable treatment depends on your facial structure and aesthetic goals.
Fillers are synthetic of naturally-occuring injectables which are injected into the lines, folds and affected areas on your face to improve the appearance of wrinkles, while also restoring the firmness and volume of your face which naturally decreases with age.
How does dermal filler work?
Some of the more common fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA), Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa), Poly-L-lactic acid, Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), and autologous fat injections (fat grafting).
Your treatment consultant will recommend different types of fillers for you depending on the affected areas on your face or your body, as well as on the results that you’re looking for.
