Dermal Filler FAQs

The article will address some of the important questions related to dermal fillers.

What are dermal fillers?

 

Dermal fillers are basically a type of hydrating gel that is injected into the deeper layer of the skin to plump it up and enhance its volume, which in turn leads to the disappearance of wrinkles and fine lines to a great extent. Some of the best skin care clinics of Auckland use dermal fillers made from sugary protein, as it naturally occurs in the skin. The jelly of our eyeball is also made from these proteins. Therefore, the usage of such dermal fillers does not cause any sort of adverse effects which are usually associated with the usage of other types of dermal fillers.

An interesting fact about dermal fillers, which a lot of people are not aware of, is that they can easily be reversed. The process is carried out by injecting a type of an enzyme, that gets dissolved and breaks down the dermal filler, which is then cleared out by the body in a few hours’ time.

One of the reasons behind the popularity of these dermal fillers is that they are not only effective but quite safe as well. It is for this reason that they are now being preferred over other wrinkle removal products such as botox and juvederm. Moreover, they provide people with an alternative to the more expensive and painful surgical procedure.

How can these fillers help you?

 

Due to aging, the fat pads situated inside our skin tend to slide, which in turn lead to sagging and hollowness of the skin. This makes skin look duller and older due to the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The absence of these fat pads make face almost look like a dried tomato – definitely not a very attractive sight. Dermal fillers are used as a replacement to these fat pads as they re-inflate the skin and fill it up – hence the name, dermal fillers. They can also be used for the purpose of ironing out wrinkles. The benefit of dermal fillers over other anti wrinkle products is that they do not impact your facial movement and expression. Therefore, you can expect to retain your facial movement after these dermal fillers are injected into your skin. The procedure just needs to be performed by an experienced pair of hands for you to achieve natural and refreshed appearance.
