Dermal fillers turn back the clock on aging

Chasing youthful skin has been going on for centuries. Reality has it that there is yet to be a person to have found the fountain of youth, which leaves us searching for ways to reduce fine lines and erase those wrinkles. Dermal fillers can help smooth lines and replenish lost volume, arguably taking years off of your appearance.


What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are gels made of hyaluronic acid that are injected into different areas of the face to restore volume, shape, contour or enhance one's appearance. They are used to shape lips, jawlines, chins, augment the cheeks, and restore lost volume. Additionally, dermal fillers can be used on the hands and neck.


One of the benefits of dermal fillers is that some results are seen immediately. After approximately two weeks, full results are visible and, depending on the area being injected and the type of filler used, can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months!
