Dermal
fillers are substances that are injected under the skin and
are used to fill and smooth facial lines and wrinkles. Fillers
can be used for lines and wrinkles around the mouth, eyes,
nose and forehead and can enhance the lips giving them greater
volume and a fuller appearance.Anyone can benefit from dermal
fillers, both men and women.
Several
types of dermal filler are available. A good way of classifying
dermal fillers is according to their composition:
Collagen
containing dermal illers
These are made from collagen; a substance that is found naturally
in skin and which gives it its natural elasticity.
Hyaluronic
acid dermal fillers
These fillers make more hyaluronic acid; a substance that
is found naturally in the skin and which results in better
lubrication and cushioning under the skin surface. Restylane
and Hydra Fill are probably the most popular hyaluronic acid
products.
Poly-L-lactic
acid
These fillers are made from poly-L-lactic acid a substance
that stimulates the production of more collagen in the skin
and so produces an increase in the thickness of the skin.
