Dermal fillers are safe and effective substances used in aesthetic medicine to restore facial volume and reduce wrinkles. These fillers are typically composed of naturally occurring substances in the skin, such as hyaluronic acid, and have a gel-like consistency. Hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to attract and retain water, which enhances skin hydration and plumpness.
With the natural aging process, the amount of hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases, leading to volume loss, sagging, and the formation of wrinkles. Dermal fillers provide an effective solution to address these concerns. When injected into specific facial areas, they fill subcutaneous depressions, restore lost volume, correct asymmetries, and smooth out wrinkles—resulting in a younger and more refined appearance. Common treatment areas include the lips, cheeks, cheekbones, chin, temples, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines, offering fast and effective aesthetic improvements.
One of the key advantages of dermal fillers is the immediate visibility of their effects after application. The procedure is generally quick and minimally invasive; it is often performed with the use of a topical anesthetic cream, and patients can return to their normal activities shortly afterwards. Results usually begin to appear within a few days and may last from six months up to one year, depending on the filler type and treatment area.
