Growing old is a fact of life, but that doesn’t mean it’s not possible to age gracefully.
With ageing can come the loss of volume across certain areas of the face, with collagen production lessening the older we become. But, thanks to dermal fillers, it’s possible to restore lost volume and definition whilst preserving the features that make you, you.
What are dermal fillers?
In an injectable treatment, dermal fillers are administered with a fine needle, to carefully targeted areas of the face. Dermal fillers contain a substance called hyaluronic acid, which is actually something the human body makes naturally when we’re young.
However, once we reach our early 30s, the body doesn’t do such a good job of making hyaluronic acid, resulting in skin that’s less supple and less plump. This is where dermal fillers come in. The fillers replace the levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin temporarily, and can add volume to specific areas where it has been lost.
Dermal fillers have become a hugely popular alternative to surgery. Not only is treatment a significantly less invasive way of improving your skin’s elasticity, texture and aesthetic, the results are extremely predictable as treatment focuses on enhancing rather than modifying your features.
