From Dull To Dazzling: Enhancing Curves With Dermal Fillers
Introduction
Age is just a number! Sounds good till it doesn’t show up on your face. Well, ageing is an inevitable process. But it is no longer inevitable to retain supple skin. The ever-evolving medical science has brought you the finest way to achieve a youthful, radiant look, even in your 40s — Facial Dermal Fillers.
This blog introduces you to spectacular possibilities of flawless skin with dermal fillers. Let’s begin with the basics.
What are Dermal Fillers made of?
Dermal Fillers, or Soft tissue fillers, is a gel-based substance made of a synthetic and organic mixture of hyaluronic acid. These fillers come in the form of mini injections. They address cosmetic concerns like adding volume, smoothing wrinkles, enhancing contours and redefining your radiant look!
Fillers aid in maintaining this volume for a more extended period. It re-inflates the deflated facial fat compartments, face-toning, restoration of the lost volume, and corrects tissue by boosting hydration to give you a more toned appearance.
Types of Dermal Fillers
- Hyaluronic acid(HA) - Mostly used to treat wrinkles.
- Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) - Mostly used on cheeks, heavy skinfolds and jawlines.
- Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) - This one is also termed Sculptra. This filler is used to treat the dullness of the face. It enhances an overall appearance.
- Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) - Also known as Permanent soft tissue filler or Bellafill. Nothing is permanent in this Universe, but it is termed as such because of its long-lasting effects. This filler treats nasolabial line, atrophic, and distensible acne scars.
