Choosing the Right Practitioner
Types of Fillers and Their Uses
Injectable fillers, commonly referred to as dermal fillers, utilize a variety of biocompatible materials to enhance facial aesthetics. Among these, hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvederm and Restylane are prevalent due to their efficacy and safety. Hyaluronic acid, a sugar molecule naturally present in the skin, plays a crucial role in maintaining structural integrity and hydration. It binds with water to form a gel-like substance that supports collagen, thereby maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. As we age, the natural levels of hyaluronic acid diminish, leading to the appearance of wrinkles and volume loss.
