What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and restore youthful contours to your face. They’re typically made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your body that helps maintain skin hydration and volume. 

Dermal fillers can be used to enhance facial features, rejuvenate your skin, and achieve a more youthful appearance without the need for surgery.

What issues can dermal fillers address?

Dermal fillers can address issues, such as:

Volume loss

As you age, you naturally lose volume in your face, resulting in hollowed cheeks, sunken temples, and flattened contours. Dermal fillers can replenish lost volume, restoring youthful fullness and enhancing facial symmetry.

Wrinkles and fine lines

Dermal fillers can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, particularly those around your eyes, mouth, and forehead, restoring a smoother, more youthful complexion.

Facial contours

Dermal fillers can be used to enhance facial contours and definition, such as augmenting your lips, defining your jawline, and lifting sagging skin.

Scars and acne pits

Dermal fillers can help improve the appearance of scars and acne pits by filling in depressions and creating a smoother skin surface.

Are there different types of dermal fillers?

Yes, and each type of dermal filler has its own unique characteristics and benefits. The most common type is hyaluronic acid fillers, which are soft and gel-like in texture, providing natural-looking results. 

Other types include calcium hydroxylapatite fillers, which stimulate collagen production for longer-lasting results, and poly-L-lactic acid fillers, which gradually add volume to the skin over time.

Ashley can evaluate your skin and determine the best type of filler for you.

How long will my results last after I get dermal fillers?

The duration of results from dermal fillers varies depending on the type of filler used, the area treated, and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. 

In general, hyaluronic acid fillers typically last between 6-18 months, while calcium hydroxylapatite fillers can last up to 12 months or longer. 

Poly-L-lactic acid fillers may require multiple sessions for optimal results and can last up to two years or more.

When visiting Ashley Muse Aesthetics & Wellness, your provider can determine the most suitable dermal filler and treatment plan for your specific needs and goals. In addition, they can provide safe and effective results that enhance your natural beauty and rejuvenate your appearance.
