What Are Dermal Fillers?

What Are Dermal Fillers By Vip Laser In Miami, FL

As we begin to age, our body stops producing collagen and elastin, causing us to lose elasticity on the face. Due to the lack of collagen, we begin to get wrinkles and fine lines. But don’t worry! Here at VIP Laser, we offer a solution that will make you look and feel young once again! With dermal fillers, you will have a smoother and fuller appearance in no time!

Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are typically made up of hyaluronic acid. They are used to restore loss of volume on different parts of the face. Dermal fillers can be used for the cheeks, jawlines, lips, and around the eyes.

 

HOW DO DERMAL FILLERS WORK?

Around the age of 25, we begin to start losing collagen and elastin. By your late twenties, you will have completely stopped producing it altogether! However, we can continue having a youthful look we all desire with dermal fillers.

Dermal fillers are injected beneath the skin to restore the loss of volume on the face. This causes the fine lines and wrinkles on the face to be smoothed out! Dermal fillers can also be used to:

  • Plump and enhance lips
  • Restore volume on the face
  • Smooth out fine lines around the nose and mouth (nasolabial folds or smile lines)
  • And more!

 

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DERMAL FILLERS?

There are a variety of dermal fillers. Fillers can be made up of hyaluronic acid (HA), calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), poly-l-lactic acid, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), and more. We have hyaluronic acid fillers and calcium hydroxylapatite fillers here at VIP Laser.

 

HYLAURONIC ACID (HA) DERMAL FILLERS

As mentioned above, the most common types of dermal fillers are made up of hyaluronic acid, which is already naturally found in the body. Hyaluronic acid keeps the skin plump and hydrated. Hyaluronic acid fillers are FDA approved and last about 6 to 12 months or even longer!

Hyaluronic acid fillers that are used at VIP Laser are:

  • Juvederm
  • Restylane

 

CALCIUM HYDROXYLAPATITE (CAHA) DERMAL FILLERS

Calcium hydroxylapatite is also a natural substance that is found in the body. It is normally found in our bones! This type of filler is a smooth gel that lasts about 12 months! This filler is also FDA-approved and helps promote collagen production and elastin!

Calcium hydroxylapatite fillers that are used at VIP Laser are:

  • Radiesse

 

WHICH FILLER IS RIGHT FOR ME?

It can be difficult to know which one is right for you with all of the different types of dermal fillers. Each filler specializes in a different part of the face, which is why it’s important to know which filler is the best for your needs and desires!
