Dermal fillers are used to restore bulk to the tissue that has been lost through collagen breakdown as a result of the aging process. Typically, dermal fillers provide volume to areas that have lost volume, such as the cheeks or temples. Fillers also help diminish static wrinkles.
Dermal fillers are a relatively safe procedure when they are delivered appropriately by a skilled and knowledgeable technician or doctor. Results are seen immediately with the optimal result being seen 2 weeks following treatment.
