Adding Filler to Make the Perfect Skin Care Routine
Skin is a complicated network of proteins, mostly collagen and elastin. Together these proteins are what allow skin to be both strong and flexible.
Over time, the body has a harder and harder time keeping up with collagen and elastin production, resulting in loose skin that can’t hold an adequate volume of water. Suddenly, wrinkles and lines start to show and there’s a loss of fullness in the lips and under eyes for example. But how can we bring back our youthful radiance? Filler.
Many non-invasive cosmetic procedures focus on reducing the signs of aging and restoring the lost volume. Dermal fillers are a time-tested anti-aging solution that has won over many men and women.
Dermal fillers are a cost-effective and safe way to treat the signs of aging.
What is Dermal Filler?
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected under the skin and are generally used to fill out places where the skin has lost volume.
The FDA has approved three types of major fillers and they mimic the body’s natural chemistry to support a naturally youthful look that works with the body.
The three choices for dermal fillers are:
- A sugar polymer that occurs naturally in the body called hyaluronic acid
- Calcium hydroxyapatite, an important component in bone structure
- PLLA, or poly-L lactic acid, a synthetic, biodegradable polymer
Dermal fillers are used to treat signs of aging like:
- Moderate or severe facial wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Thinning lips
- Signs of aging in the back of the hands
- Loose skin around the jawline
- Sinking cheeks
Using Filler To Restore Youthfulness
Fillers and Botox are both injected under the skin by aesthetic injectors, but how they work to reduce signs of aging is completely different. Neurotoxin injections relax the facial muscles that pull against the skin and cause wrinkles. The decreased tension in the muscles reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal filler, on the other hand, works with the existing structural proteins of the facial skin to restore lost volume that causes wrinkles to be more apparent.
Although both filler and botox products can be used as part of a skincare routine, dermal fillers are preferable under some circumstances. First, dermal fillers plump the skin without a loss of control or sensation. This allows for more natural movement of the facial muscles and a more youthful appearance. The results from dermal fillers tend to last longer and are more easily reversible if changes need to be made.
