Facial Fillers

As the human body matures, it slowly stops producing certain vital substances to keep the youth and skin elasticity. Consequently, fine wrinkles around lips, eyes and forehead appear.

A tired, sad, and angry appearance may be caused by deep lines along the corners of the mouth. By replacing these lost elements for other synthetically lab elaborated, the appearance of an aged or saddened face can be changed definitely. Fat injections may be used to temporarily improve the appearance of hollow cheeks, thin lips, an aging forehead, and eyes.

The fat used in the injection is taken directly from another area of your body. Another common alternative treatment options and minimally invasive procedures include dermal filler, synthetically produced, such as Restylane®, Surgiderm® or Puragen®. Dermal fillers can produce positive results on facial wrinkles, particularly around the mouth and nose. Another benefit is the long-lasting results as the effects of dermal fillers can last up to 12 months.

The hyaluronic acid is a substance present abundantly in young skins. With time, the distribution of this acid changes and aging signs appear. Precisely, the hyaluronic acid is one of the substances most used to fill those lines formed around the lips, in the forehead and the characteristic crow´s feet.

The hyaluronic acid is a polymer (macromolecules), natural polysaccharide of light texture that due to its capacity to hold water is used to add volume to the tissue. During last years, the techniques using dermal filler products have advanced dramatically.

There is a different type of product for each area to be treated. Therefore, the product used to fill the laugh lines is not the same used to give volume to lips. There are dermal fillers for deep lines, for fine wrinkles, to give volume to certain areas of the face, for nasolabial folds, for the lips, for superficial lines and to restore hydration.
