Fillers Treatment

Injectable filler is utilized to enhance the facial profile, making it appear more youthful and attractive. By injecting filler materials beneath the skin, deep folds like nasolabial folds (often referred to as “bracket lines” extending from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth) can be filled in. This procedure can also create fuller lips, pad out hollow cheeks, and rejuvenate the eyes. While collagen was once the standard filler, hyaluronic acid has become more popular in recent times.

As we age, the body’s reduced capacity to produce collagen and elastin can lead to sagging and wrinkles in specific facial regions, resulting in volume loss.

Unlike wrinkles, which benefit from muscle relaxants to reduce their appearance, facial volume and folds necessitate the use of fillers to replenish and hydrate the affected areas.

Hyaluronic gel is the key component of these fillers, capable of restoring fullness and volume to various facial areas.

Fillers made of Hyaluronic acid typically last six to 12 months, while Synthetic fillers like Radiesse can last 12 to 18 months.

Fat transfers, a procedure involving the extraction of your body fat from another area, its processing, and subsequent injection into your face, may sometimes provide results that last several years. However, there is a possibility that the transferred fat may not persist and could be reabsorbed by the body.

The filler injections may cause some discomfort, and the level of pain experienced can vary from one patient to another and depends on the injection site. In areas like the nasolabial folds, there might be a temporary, mild burning sensation.

For lip injections, anesthetics are typically administered because the injections can induce a burning and stinging sensation that most people find intolerable.
