What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that smooth lines, restore volume, and enhance facial features. These gel-like substances are strategically placed beneath the skin to address various cosmetic concerns, from fine lines around the mouth to hollow areas under the eyes. Most dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that helps maintain moisture and volume in your skin. As we age, our hyaluronic acid production decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles. Dermal fillers replenish this lost volume while stimulating your body’s natural collagen production.
Types of Dermal Fillers
Different dermal fillers are formulated for specific areas of the face. Understanding the unique properties of each helps ensure optimal results for your individual needs. Types of dermal fillers include:
What to Expect During the Process
Getting dermal fillers for wrinkles can seem daunting, but the process is designed with your comfort in mind. Here’s what you can expect during your dermal filler treatment:
- Consultation – The appointment starts with a thorough consultation. Your dermatologist will evaluate your skin and recommend the best type of filler and placement. We may also take photos to track your progress.
- Preparation – Before the injections, the treatment area will be cleansed. We may also numb the area with a topical anesthetic or apply ice to minimize discomfort. Many modern fillers contain lidocaine for added comfort and pain relief.
- Injection – Using fine needles or cannulas, we’ll strategically inject the filler. We also gently massage the area to ensure it’s distributed evenly. Most patients report feeling only a slight pinch or pressure.
- Aftercare – You might notice mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. However, these side effects typically resolve within a few days, and most patients can return to their normal activities immediately.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dermal Fillers?
Ideal candidates for dermal fillers are adults who want to address signs of aging or enhance their natural features without surgery. Most healthy adults over 18 can benefit from dermal filler treatments. However, the best candidates are those with moderate signs of aging, such as fine lines around the mouth or hollow areas under the eyes.
Certain medical conditions or medications may affect your candidacy for dermal fillers. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should postpone treatment, as should individuals with active infections at the treatment site or certain autoimmune conditions.
