Dermal Filler
The Science
Dermal fillers are a cosmetic treatment that involves injecting specialized substances into specific areas of the face. This minimally invasive procedure typically uses a gel-like substance made of hyaluronic acid, which is naturally found in the body and helps with skin hydration and elasticity. Hyaluronic acid helps in improving the hydration level of skin, promotes synthesis of collagen and normal skin functioning. It is vital for the structural unity of collagen matrix, giving structural support as well as providing nutrients.
The utilization of dermal fillers is widespread for addressing various aesthetic concerns, such as reducing fine lines and wrinkles, restoring lost volume and enhance overall facial contouring. The treatment’s efficacy is mainly concentrated on the mid and lower regions of the face, including the cheeks, smile lines, lips, chin, and jawline.
With time, our skin loses its elasticity and volume, leading to the emergence of wrinkles, sagging skin, and other apparent signs of ageing. Dermal fillers play a vital role in addressing these concerns by reinstating volume to the face, lifting sagging skin, smoothing out wrinkles and folds, and enhancing facial contouring. A notable advantage of dermal fillers is their adaptability. The treatment can be personalized to cater to each patient’s individual requirements and objectives, making it an ideal choice for anyone aiming to achieve a refreshed and youthful appearance.
Nose-to-mouth lines (the nasolabial folds)
The deep crease that extends from either side of the nose down to the corners of the mouth is known as the nasolabial fold. As a result of the normal ageing process, this wrinkle becomes more obvious. As cheek fat disappears, skin volume decreases and the fold appears deeper. Dermal filler injections into the vicinity can be used to treat it, restoring lost volume and reducing the look of these wrinkles.

Smoker’s lines (around the mouth)
also known as Lipstick lines refers to the fine lines, deep lines, shallow lines, and lip wrinkles that appear around the mouth are referred to as “smokers’ lines.” Perioral wrinkles, which develop vertically above the upper lip, can be quite challenging to treat, especially with creams, lotions, and other at-home anti-aging remedies. Dermal fillers minimise the depth of deep wrinkles by plumping the skin behind the wrinkle. For the deeper lines that appear when the lip is relaxed, a lip line filler works well.

Liquid facelift/8 point facelift
The 8-point facelift is the most cutting edge and inventive injectable procedure that addresses the signs of ageing without surgery and results in skin that looks younger and tighter. Dermal filler is injected into the midface’s target locations in a specified order during an 8-point facelift.

Dermal fillers specifically created for the tear trough area are used in this minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure.
