injectable fillers

Many visible signs of aging can be traced back to volume loss, as facial tissues thin out, lines become etched around the nose and mouth and cheeks look a little hollow. Dermal fillers can replace lost volume to help smooth wrinkles, plump the lips, and restore a more youthful appearance.

What are Fillers Made With?

There are four main substances:

  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a temporary material that loses its effect after 6 to 12 months
  • Calcium hydroxylapatite, a temporary gel solution that lasts for 18 months
  • Poly-L-lactic acid, a man-made material that lasts about two years
  • Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), the only permanent type of dermal filler available

 

 

What is the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?

Botox and dermal fillers are cosmetic treatments given through injections, usually in a doctor’s office. They are minimally invasive, meaning they do not involve surgery. That is where their similarities end, however.

Botox and dermal filler treatments are popular, accounting for more than 9 million procedures in 2015, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).

Botox contains purified bacteria that freeze muscles. In doing so, Botox can help minimize the appearance of lines and wrinkles caused by facial expressions.

Dermal fillers contain ingredients that add fullness to areas that have thinned due to aging. This thinning is common in the cheeks, lips, and around the mouth.

People should be aware of the costs and risks of treatments and have realistic expectations of what they can do.
