Fillers are solutions injected into the skin. They can be made up of certain types of toxins and even collagen stimulators. Common fillers include Juvéderm, Sculptra, and Restylane. Each is made up of different ingredients, but all work to leave skin looking younger than ever.
Fillers can be used on many parts of the body, including the face and hands. They also can be used to accomplish many different things. Fillers can:
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles such as crow’s feet and forehead furrows.
- Restore fullness to areas that have become hollow such as the cheeks or under the eyes.
- Plump thinning lips to make them appear fullers.
- Minimize the appearance of scars, both from accidents and acne.
- Rejuvenate your hands, reducing wrinkles and hollow spots.
In addition to the benefit of improved skin, fillers also offer many additional benefits, which is part of what makes them such a popular option for many people. One of the biggest benefits they offer little to no downtime. After you have a filler done, most patients are able to return to regular activities. Most also offer immediate results, allowing patients to feel more confident right after their treatment.
Other benefits of fillers include the fact that results are long-lasting, ranging from a few months to a few years, depending on the type of filler you have. They also offer relatively mild symptoms, if you experience them, such as redness of the injection area, swelling, and tenderness.
