DERMAL FILLERS

Dermal fillers are used to “fill” skin that has lost tissue volume.  The new fillers are made of natural ingredients such as calcium and hyaluronic acid.  Some of the popular brands of dermal fillers include Juvederm and Botox.  By visiting your MedSpa, a trained specialist will determine which filler will best suit your needs.  Dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 – 18 months depending on the individual, and are most commonly used in the following areas:

 

• Nasal labial folds

• Marionette lines

• Cheeks

• Lips

• Facial wrinkles

• Vertical lip lines

• Corners of the mouth

 

Some dermal fillers can even be used in conjunction with other skin rejuvenation treatments.  With dermal fillers, you can successfully improve the appearance of aging skin.
