How Dermal Fillers Work?

Collagen is strong and flexible component of dermis that acts as skin’s support structure. By age 45, we face about a 25% loss in collagen which weakens the skin structure resulting in fine lines and winkles to appear. The dermal fillers either work by occupying the space where volume is missing or by stimulating collagen production. Dermal fillers contain viscous gel made from hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acids are produced naturally by human body. Hyaluronic acids help in production of collagen and strengthen our skin and connective tissues. They are widely used to treat age-related facial volume loss. Fillers add volume to hollow eyelids, lips, cheek area, chin and nose. They are also used to treat hollow around eyelids and add volume under cheekbones.

Dermal Fillers vs BOTOX

Dermal fillers treat the creases that are visible when face is in rest position. They work by filling the creases and improving structure of the skin with a viscous gel injectable made from hyaluronic acid. Botox on the other hand treat wrinkles and fine lines on the skin by temporary relaxation of specific facial muscles.

Age Considerations for Dermal Fillers

Young patients have adequate skin tone and tissue to support filler in place and can be a good candidate for fillers in certain areas. Young patients also often use dermal fillers for lip augmentation to make lips fuller. Where as in older patients, due to skin laxity, the goal is to restore the structure and volume of the skin.
