It is true! Beauty industry has been revolutionized, aesthetic treatments have been personalized and new beauty standards are now being idolized. If you are still unsure about the cosmetic fillers, our dermal fillers before and after transformations will make you a believer.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

The National Health Service UK defines dermal fillers as injectable substances that are used to fill out wrinkles and creases in a patient’s skin. Moreover, face fillers give definition and enhance lips shape and size. Cheeks are also given structure and volume by injecting dermal fillers.  

These cosmetic fillers are also sometimes used to correct scarring and depressions in the skin. Most dermal fillers consist of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), which naturally occurs in your body.

Hyaluronic Acid effects on skin

As you begin to age, essential skin proteins such as collagen and elastin begin to decline. Hence, your skin shows major signs of ageing, such as wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, and dullness.

How A Dermal Filler Works?

Did you know your skin begins to experience the natural process of ageing in your 20’s? Moreover, your body slows down its production of collagen and elastin.  

Collagen is the naturally occurring protein that keeps your skin youthful, firm and smooth. As collagen production begins to decline with age, wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging start to occur. Also, there are many factors that may lead to the breakdown of the collagen, such as:  

  • Dehydration
  • Smoking,
  • Excessive exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light
  • Poor diet in minerals, vitamins and amino acids
  • Stress

Dermal fillers, also known as ‘soft-tissue fillers’, are injected under your skin to smoothen out any fine lines, creases and wrinkles. These cosmetic fillers give structure to the skin, and the hyaluronic acid boosts the skin’s moisture supply.

Hence, the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is instantly diminished, and the skin looks smooth and volumized. The hyaluronic acid fillers are used for treating static lines to giving volume to sunken and volume deficient areas such as jawline, chin and even lips.

Top 8 Factors Behind Dermal Fillers’ Popularity

Are you ready to fight major signs of ageing without having the need to undergo a knife or buy ineffective and pricey creams?  

Do you know that it is possible to achieve anti ageing goals in a matter of minutes with visible results? 

Dermal Fillers are a revolutionary invention of aesthetic medicine that has become quite popular for all the right reasons. Thanks to its multiple benefits, millions of people are benefitting. 

Take a look at why this anti ageing weapon is so much in demand: 

Little To No Downtime — ‘Lunchtime Facelift’   

Unlike the surgical solution, dermal fillers do not involve long and lengthy downtimes because you can go back to your work without any stitches or bandages. Moreover, there is no need for any general anaesthesia as well.  

However, a good dermal filler result needs your care, and you can avoid any undesirable event by following the aftercare guidelines. For instance, avoiding heavy workouts immediately after your procedure.

Natural-looking Results   

Another reason why so many people prefer dermal fillers is because of natural and subtle results. Surgery usually involves drastic changes to your face and, of course, unavoidable risks and complications. However, the minimally invasive cosmetic fillers only deliver subtle enhancements.  

Therefore, it is unnecessary to look completely different anymore because dermal fillers do not involve the use of scalpels or incisions into your skin. Just by using the right type of filler, the right amount of filler, and the correct technique, you can achieve a desirable improvement to your looks.  

Boosts Collagen Production

While collagen creams and moisturizers help hydrate your skin’s top layer, it does nothing to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a principal protein produced by your skin to keep it plump, fresh and smooth. However, as you begin to age, its production slows down.  

Hence, Dermal fillers are an ideal method to stimulate the production of elastin and collagen. So, while you can use these hyaluronic acid fillers for facial contouring and reshaping, it also boosts collagen.  

Long Lasting Effects  

  On average, a dermal filler treatment usually lasts for about 6-12 months and in some cases, as long as 18 months, depending upon: 

  •  The type of filler
  •  Amount of filler
  • The treatment area.

However, in some cases, the effect can last for years too.  

In order to maintain the youthful effects of your treatment, it is better to schedule repeat treatments for touch ups. 

Hence, despite temporary results, dermal fillers provide long lasting results and can be maintained by following aftercare advice. 

An Ideal Remedy For Scars

Dermal fillers have become a sigh of relief for people who have been suffering from scars for years! How? According to American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS), soft-tissue fillers are an ideal choice only for scars that are severely depressed so they can be elevated by the filler.

The hyaluronic acid fillers not only smoothen the look of the scars but also promotes their resorption. As a result, skin becomes hydrated, smooth, and plump. 

No Incisions, Scalpel, Anesthesia

A few years ago, it was almost impossible to imagine any facial enhancement without undergoing a knife. For instance, to correct a crooked nose, it was essential to undergo a surgical rhinoplasty. 

However, dermal fillers have made it possible to achieve beauty goals without any surgery. Moreover, it is one of the most popular reasons why cosmetic fillers are liked so much.

Little To No Risks Or Side Effects 

Painless beauty is now achievable because dermal filler injections do not cause unbearable pain or discomfort. However, there are a few factors behind to ensure minimum discomfort:  

  • Non surgical approach  
  • Application of a topical numbing cream  
  • The new generation of dermal fillers contains lidocaine  
  • Using proper injection techniques for the procedure   

No More Self-Consciousness

Research has proven that people feel more confident when they know they look good or get compliments from others. Whether it is men or women, young or old, people seek self-confidence. They do this by putting on makeup, purchasing new clothes or even getting non surgical facial rejuvenation. 

Dermal fillers can give you lost confidence in your appearance without any significant pain, long downtime or serious risks. Moreover, you do not have to experience drastic changes in your looks because now subtle and natural results are possible.

Benefits of Dermal Fillers

5 Major Dermal Fillers Treatment Areas

1- The Elevens

These frown lines can make anyone look like an angry person even if he or she is not! Glabellar lines or the ‘Elevens’ refer to the lines or creases between your brows. 

Moreover, many women find them undesirable because these wrinkles do not go away on their own. In fact, they may become deeper with time, either due to age or repetitive facial expressions.

Therefore, a combination of Botox and Dermal Fillers can improve these angry lines, and you do not have to look annoyed every time!

2- Sunken Eyes And Under Eye Dark Circles

Is ageing, work or emotional stress, sleepless nights taking a toll on your face? Do you look tired every time because of your sunken eyes and dark circles under your eyes?

Hyaluronic acid-based tear trough fillers can be a good solution. The fillers fill in this area and reduce the look of heavy bags and rejuvenate the entire eye area!

3- Flat Cheeks

The cheek fillers are high in demand among the younger as well as the older population. It is because cheeks can make or break your look.

Flat cheeks due to either naturally weak bone mass or loss of volume due to age can be fixed using dermal fillers.

Furthermore, these cosmetic fillers give volume and an instant lift to your entire face! Hence, it becomes easier for you to look refreshed, rejuvenated and achieve the ‘Triangle Of Beauty’.

4- Life Less Lips

Lip Enhancement is also quite popular among people of all ages and gender. One of the reasons is that beautiful and plump lips make your face appear softer and harmonized.

But the most important reason behind the widespread usage of lip fillers is that it is totally non-invasive and does not involve any severe side effects!

Moreover, lip rejuvenation can also include improving the ‘Smoker’s Lines’ that may develop over time, especially in women.

Therefore, dermal fillers are an ideal way to improve your looks and appear confident in front of the world and in your selfies too.

5- Weak And Unattractive Chin

A weak chin may result from either a naturally weak lower facial structure or loss of volume with age. Nevertheless, in either case, it is undesirable.

Chin filler can be injected into the chin to rejuvenate your entire look and restore that younger appearance. Also, after the dermal filler treatment, your sagging skin around the neck is tightened, and the double chin look diminishes.

Hence, hyaluronic acid fillers give volume, contour your lower face area and deliver an instant lift to your face. While many of our female patients want to have a softer contoured chin, our male patients like to have a more chiselled chin.

Dermal fillers can enhance the:

  • Projected Chin Appearance
  • Size Of Your Chin
  • Shape Of Your Chin
  • Symmetry Of Your Chin
  • Length of your chin

How Long Do Dermal Fillers Typically Last? 

One of the most asked questions regarding dermal fillers is, ‘how long does a dermal filler last?’ There is usually no single answer to this question because the duration of a dermal filler result usually depends upon multiple factors .

However, a typical hyaluronic acid filler can usually last for 6 to 12 months, while other cosmetic fillers can last up to 5 years! Moreover, a dermal filler for lips may not last as long as the one used for jawline enhancement.  

Take a look at the table down below showing the duration of dermal fillers in different areas. 

Areas Injected With Dermal Fillers  Typical Duration 
Forehead Lines Or Worry Lines  12 Months 
Flat Nose Bridge Or Crooked Nose  12 to 18 Months

6 Crucial Factors That Affect Duration Of Dermal Fillers

The following factors have an effect on the longevity of hyaluronic acid fillers. Moreover, you need to keep these factors in mind and consider them before and after your treatment. 

  1. Type of dermal filler used for treatment
  2. How much dermal filler is used for your treatment?
  3. How thick or fine is your dermal filler?
  4. Injected facial area, e.g., cheeks, lips, jawline
  5. Patient metabolic rate – how quickly your body breaks down the dermal filler
  6. What injection technique has been used by your injector?

How Much Filler Do I Need? 

Cosmedocs understands that everyone is unique and different. What works you may not work for someone else. To clarify the idea, if your lips need 1 ml of dermal fillers to plump and beautify your lips, the next patient may need 0.5 ml or 2 ml based on her needs. 

However, the majority of people usually require 1ml of dermal filler. This amount can be effectively used for Lip Enhancement, Cheek Augmentation, Chin Reshaping or a Non-surgical nose job

Are There Any Side Effects Of Facial Fillers?

Dermal Fillers have been declared safe by FDA and MHRA. Also, these are non invasive in nature; however, there may occur a few side reactions.

  • Redness 
  • Itching

You have given a fair chance to those fancy creams and serums. You have also given enough time to those lazy natural masks and face packs to work.

Moreover, the dermal fillers can add multiple skin benefits such as:

  • a natural plumping action

    I appreciated it when you shared that cosmetic fillers can be used to correct scarring and depressions in the skin. My friend just mentioned the other day that she is worried about her skin since she has deep scarring that is very obvious. I will suggest to her getting cosmetic fillers to help make it look better.

    Thanks for the tip that taking collagen supplements would be a good way to keep my skin in good condition after getting dermal fillers. I’m interested in looking for a clinic that offers dermal fillers because I don’t really feel confident having wrinkles on my cheeks. I think having fillers will help a lot in boosting my confidence again.
