Some lines and folds in the face are caused by volume loss that occurs over time with age. By replacing that volume, a natural lift and softening of those lines and folds is achieved. Which filler is right for you is based on the area of concern and your desired results. Your physician can help you determine what is best for your unique needs and aesthetic goals.
Filler can be for women as well as men. This is not just for older individuals, but for young adults too. In fact, smaller amounts earlier may prevent or lead to a better overall result before the damage ever occurs.
As we age, our bone and muscle mass decrease not just in our bodies but in our faces as well. We can try to prevent this aging process for our bodies by lifting weights, building muscle, and eating healthy, but how can we do the same thing for our face? Unfortunately, we cannot replace the bone and muscle mass in our face, but we can replace lost volume. This is how filler can provide a youthful and refreshed appearance to the skin. Filler is made of hyaluronic acid, which is also made naturally in our bodies. Injecting hyaluronic acid also has the benefit of stimulating collagen production in your own cells, overall improving the health and longevity of your skin. When done safely by a physician, a little can go a long way with natural-looking results.
Filler can be injected into areas of the face with less volume or volume loss. Make sure to consult with your physician about a safe and efficient plan for your aesthetic goals.
Nasolabial folds: these are the lines from the bottom of the nose down to the corners of the mouth.
Marionette lines: these are the lines that extend down from the corners of the mouth and can make you look sad.
Cheeks: either upper cheek to lift the nasolabial folds and jowling, or mid-low cheek to treat hollowing.
Lips: Body of the lip for fullness and shaping.
Smoker lines: the vertical lines around the lips that are caused not just by smoking, but more commonly by pursing the lips, expressions, whistling, and drinking from a straw.
Chin: Filler in the chin area can be used to create a more defined jawline in a natural-looking way. The side profile can also be enhanced by correcting the recessed chin structure, resulting in more proportion and projection.
Other areas: include under the eyes for hollows, acne scars, surgical scars, temples, ear lobes, and hands.
