Dermal Fillers

Three layers comprise normal skin: the epidermis or outer layer, the dermis or middle layer, and the innermost layer of fat. The major component of the dermis is collagen. As we age the normal volume and production of collagen decrease. The reduced volume and the effects of gravity contribute to the formation of lines and wrinkles.

Dermal fillers are compounds that are injected directly into the dermis to restore volume and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Also called hyaluronic acid fillers, dermal fillers come under many names including Restylane®, Restylane® Silk, Restylane® Lyft, Juvederm®, and Perlane® and Sculptra® Aesthetic. A naturally occurring substance that is present within the skin, hyaluronic acid provides support and hydration of the skin.

Dermal fillers instantly smooth away wrinkles around your mouth and nose. These fillers can provide soft tissue volume restoration, including cheek augmentation, along with lip enhancement. With just one treatment, you’ll get smooth and natural-looking results that last from six months up to a year.
