Did you know that when we reach our mid-twenties, our skin loses its elasticity and its production of collagen decreases? Well, that could be the reason you’re starting to feel that you need a little boost to get your confidence back.
Many people presume that dermal fillers just tackle lines and wrinkles. However, you’ll find out in this blog there are many ways they can be used to give you back the confidence in your looks that you deserve.
Types of Aesthetic Fillers
So what are the different types of fillers, and what do they aim to achieve?
Lip Fillers
Dermal fillers add volume, shape, and contour to the lips to create a plump and fuller appearance. These Dermal Fillers are made of materials such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, and other biocompatible substances found naturally in the body.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
This cosmetic procedure involves injecting fillers to alter the appearance of the nose without surgery. The filler is injected under the skin to smooth out bumps or uneven areas, straighten the bridge of the nose, or improve the overall symmetry of the nose.
Chin Enhancement
This non-surgical cosmetic procedure involves the injection of dermal fillers into the chin to improve its shape, size, volume, definition, and contour.
Marionette Lines
Dermal fillers can reduce the appearance of marionette lines. The filler is injected into the skin around the mouth and chin area, adding volume to the skin and smoothing out wrinkles.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers
So what are the benefits of Dermal Fillers? They come with many benefits, from reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, restoring facial volume, improving skin texture, tone, enhancing facial contours and symmetry.
Another benefit of dermal fillers is the recovery time. With recovery time after these procedures being quick, it makes it a popular choice of treatment and even more, so that most of the results can be seen immediately.
Risks and Side Effects of Aesthetic Fillers
There are always some risks that you need to be aware of when having any aesthetic procedure. After your treatment, you may suffer some mild bruising and swelling. This is only temporary and should subside within a couple of days.
In some rare cases, patients can have allergic reactions to the products used. In this case, professional medical advice would be given. As always with piercing the skin, there is always a risk of injection. As the filler is being pumped into the skin, there is a risk of migration and lumps of the filler. You will be informed about techniques you can use to avoid this.
Preparing for Aesthetic Fillers
When you’ve decided that Fillers are the step you want to take to boost your confidence, you’ll need to make sure you choose the right provider.
This should be someone with experience in Dermal Fillers who can help you understand the procedure from start to finish, set realistic expectations and prepare you for the recovery after the procedure.
Aftercare for Aesthetic Fillers
Aftercare from any medical procedure is very important. The aftercare will not only help you manage any side effects, but it will also help you to maintain your results for longer. With certain procedures, you may have to have a follow-up appointment after a couple of weeks. You should attend this appointment to ensure you have your desired results and your treatment has gone as planned. Some procedures may also require a top-up treatment such as Botox.
Are Dermal Fillers For You?
Overall, dermal fillers are becoming increasingly popular due to the procedures being quick, low pain, immediate effects (or for some treatments after a few weeks), low risk and mild side effects after treatment.
You must use a qualified and experienced provider for any aesthetic treatment. So instead of dreaming of changing the shape of your nose, having luscious lips, and worrying about the cost of surgery and the recovery after, see how dermal fillers can enhance your appearance.
