What are the benefits of fillers?

08 Apr.,2024

 

1. Instant Results

One of the main benefits of dermal fillers is the immediacy of the results. Unlike some cosmetic treatments that require time to reveal the final effects, dermal fillers offer instant improvement. You can leave our Camberley salon with rejuvenated skin after just one appointment.

2. Minimal Recovery Time

Dermal fillers require minimal recovery time. This makes them a perfect choice for those with busy schedules who cannot afford extended downtime. Most clients can return to their daily activities immediately after treatment.

3. Long-Lasting Effects

Dermal fillers provide lasting results, often between six months to a year, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. This longevity makes dermal fillers a cost-effective solution for maintaining a youthful appearance.

4. Natural-Looking Results

Our expert team at House of Beauty focuses on providing a natural look with dermal fillers. The goal isn’t to change your features, but to enhance your natural beauty and restore the youthful volume and smoothness of your skin.

5. Versatility

Dermal fillers can be used to address a variety of aesthetic concerns. They can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, add volume to lips, contour cheeks and jawline, and even rejuvenate the appearance of your hands.

6. Confidence Boost

Perhaps most importantly, dermal fillers can provide a significant boost in self-esteem. Feeling good about your appearance can have a profound impact on your overall wellbeing and attitude.

7. Non-Surgical Facelift

As we age, our skin loses elasticity, causing sagging and the formation of lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers can act as a non-surgical facelift, lifting and firming the skin without the need for invasive surgery.

8. Scar Reduction

Dermal fillers can also be used to improve the appearance of scars, especially those caused by acne. The fillers are injected into the scar tissue to raise the surface of the skin and create a smoother look.

9. Rejuvenation of Hands and Décolletage

Often, we focus on the face while forgetting other areas like our hands and décolletage, which can show signs of ageing too. Dermal fillers can rejuvenate these often-neglected areas, restoring lost volume and smoothing wrinkles and lines.

10. Hydration

Many dermal fillers, especially those based on hyaluronic acid, have the added benefit of hydrating the skin. This is because hyaluronic acid naturally attracts moisture, helping to keep your skin soft, supple, and healthy-looking.

11. Customisation

The amount and placement of dermal filler can be customised to your specific needs and aesthetic goals. This means that the results are controllable – you can choose to have a subtle or more dramatic transformation.

12. Correction of Facial Asymmetries

Small asymmetries are a natural part of every face, but if they’re bothering you, dermal fillers can be used to balance out features and improve facial harmony.

13. Improves Skin Texture

Beyond adding volume and smoothing wrinkles, dermal fillers can improve skin texture, making it feel smoother to the touch. This is particularly beneficial for individuals who have textured skin due to acne scarring or other skin conditions.

14. Proven Safety Record

When administered by a trained professional, dermal fillers have a proven safety record. This means you can feel confident and secure in the safety of the treatment.

Remember, while dermal fillers offer many benefits, the key to a successful treatment is to have it performed by trained and experienced professionals, like our team at House of Beauty. We are committed to providing safe, effective treatments that enhance your natural beauty and boost your confidence.

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal filler injections are a type of nonsurgical cosmetic procedure. Dermal fillers plump up wrinkles, smooth lines and restore volume in your face. Your healthcare provider injects these substances just under your skin.

People choose to get dermal fillers to enhance their facial features or gain a more youthful appearance. This elective treatment usually takes less than half an hour, and recovery time is minimal. Results are seen right away and last months to years depending on the type of filler and the location.

There are several kinds of dermal fillers. Your healthcare provider will discuss your options with you. As with any cosmetic procedure, there are risks, including infection, bleeding and bruising. Health insurance plans generally don’t cover elective cosmetic procedures such as filler injections.

Why are dermal fillers used?

As you age, your body starts to lose collagen. Collagen is an important substance that exists all over your body, including in your skin, muscles, bones and connective tissues. Decreased amounts of collagen in your skin causes skin laxity (loose) and loss of volume. Skin becomes thinner, loses its elasticity and starts to sag.

You may choose to get dermal fillers to:

  • Add volume to sagging skin.
  • Make your facial features more symmetrical.
  • Plump up lips and cheeks.
  • Smooth wrinkles and creases in your face.

Some medications prescribed to treat medical conditions such as HIV and AIDS can cause thinness in your face. Some people choose to get dermal fillers to restore volume to their face after taking these medications.

How common are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are very common. Every year in the United States, more than 3 million people choose to get dermal fillers.

What are the types of dermal fillers?

There are many types of dermal fillers. In addition to “off-the-shelf” fillers that use synthetic (manmade materials) and substances that naturally occur in your body, healthcare providers can use fat from your own body. Healthcare providers call this procedure “autologous fat grafting,” where they remove fat from one part of your body and inject it into your face.

The types of off-the-shelf fillers include:

  • Hyaluronic acid (HA)is a naturally occurring acid in your skin. It gives your skin volume and keeps it hydrated. With age, your body stops making hyaluronic acid. Results from HA injections usually last six months to a year. Restylane® is a commonly used type of HA filler.
  • Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) is a type of filler that consists of a substance you have in your bones. Results from these fillers typically last around a year. Healthcare providers usually use CaHA fillers for deeper wrinkles. Examples of CaHA fillers include Radiesse®.
  • Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is a substance that helps your body create its own collagen. Healthcare providers usually use poly-L-lactic acid to smooth deep wrinkles on your face. The results can last two years or more. Types of PLLA fillers include Sculptra®.
  • Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) fillers consist of collagen and very small balls that stay under your skin after your healthcare provider injects them. The balls give your skin volume and keep it firm. Bellafill® is one type of PMMA filler.

Your healthcare provider will review the types of dermal fillers and discuss the right option for you. Talk to them about setting realistic goals and the results you can expect after getting injections.
