The Basics of Dermal Fillers

Summary

Dermal Fillers are a type of cosmetic procedure used to reduce lines and add volume to certain areas of the face. They have become increasingly popular due to their non-invasive nature and immediate results. Let's take a closer look at these injectable treatments, how they work, and what you should expect from your procedure.

How do Injectable Treatments Work? 

Injectable treatments are made from a variety of substances, including hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, and more. These substances are administered into the skin to reduce lines or add volume to certain areas of the face. Depending on the product used, results can last anywhere from several months up to several years. The procedure is relatively quick and easy with minimal discomfort during and after the treatment.

What Areas Can Be Treated with Injectable Treatments? 

Injectable treatments can be used in many different areas of the face, but they are most commonly used around the mouth and nose area, as well as in the cheeks, jawline, and chin. They can also be used to address dark circles under the eyes or hollowed temples. Your practitioner will assess your needs during a consultation to determine which product would be best for you.

What Should I Expect from My Treatment? 

Your treatment should begin with a consultation with your practitioner, where you will discuss your desired results and any medical history that might affect your treatment plan. During the injection itself, there may be some slight discomfort, but this usually subsides quickly with no need for anesthesia or numbing agents. Afterwards, there may be some slight swelling or bruising, but this should resolve after a few days. You should notice an immediate improvement in your appearance after treatment, with long-lasting results depending on which type of product was used.

Injectable treatments can provide an effective solution for reducing lines and adding volume to certain areas of the face without undergoing surgery or other invasive treatments. The procedure is relatively quick and easy with minimal downtime afterward so you can get back to living life without worrying about any post-procedure recovery time. If you're considering injectable treatments for yourself, it's important that you consult with your practitioner first so that they can assess your needs and help determine which type of product would be best for you.
