What Can Fillers (Injectable HA) Help With?
As time takes its toll, the skin of each individual undergoes changes. Collagen fibers beneath the skin decrease with age, causing sagging, wrinkles, and deep lines to appear. Skin becomes thinner as well.
One effective option to restore firmness and hydration to the skin is the use of fillers. Physicians often employ fillers to replenish or enhance the layers of the skin or the subcutaneous layer. This helps address issues like wrinkles and deep lines on the face, such as smile lines and cheek contours.
Not only do fillers help in resolving deep wrinkles, but they also contribute to facial reshaping, creating more proportional features like a volume lift for those with sagging cheeks. This results in a tighter, more radiant appearance and a clearer, well-defined facial structure.
Types of fillers include:
Temporary Fillers: These naturally dissolve over time and can last up to 4-6 months. They are considered safe.
Semi-Permanent Fillers: Lasting up to 2 years, these fillers have a moderate safety profile.
Permanent Fillers: Comprising substances like silicone or paraffin, these fillers can dissolve naturally and may have long-term side effects.
