DERMAL FILLERS

DERMAL FILLER GENERAL INFORMATION

Dermal fillers are becoming increasingly popular as a means to help reverse the changes associated with aging. Because the goal is to return the dermis to its original youthful state, dermal fillers can give a more natural appearance than surgical facelifts. Dermal fillers are being used to reduce or eliminate wrinkles, raise scar depressions, enhance lips, and replace soft-tissue volume loss.

BOTOX

When it comes to reversing aging process, patients now have options that are highly effective but with less downtime and risk, than surgery. These new options are tremendously more accessible to a greater population of consumers than what has been available in the past.

As we age we observe thinning of the skin and atrophy of fat pads in the face. Bony landmarks, blood vessels, wrinkles and furrows become more visible. Smile lines like parentheses ( ) around the nose and mouth become more prominent. Dynamic wrinkles in the facial skin appear or are highlighted when the underlying muscles are in motion for example, when you smile, frown, or look surprised. Static wrinkles are present when the face is at rest or not moving.
