Dermal Fillers

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are substances that can be safely injected into or under your skin that may restore smooth texture and youthful shape, helping in facial contouring. Fillers is a non-invasive procedure that may help take years off your age without the risks of surgery.

How do Dermal Fillers work?

Dermal Fillers fill defects, deep wrinkles, and depressed scars, and to re-create facial contours lost with aging. It can be combined with other techniques such as Botox or laser treatments,

Fillers plump up the area where it is injected. Because fillers are a natural substances, your body gradually metabolizes them. Fillers may help stimulate collagen production in your skin, giving you a longer lasting effect. Thus, any treatment with the above fillers isn’t permanent, but lasts 6 months to 2 years, depending on the filler and the treatment.

Dr. Pinkhasik uses a very fine needle to place fillers in key regions of your face where loss of volume has created changes, resulting in an aged and tired appearance.

Common treatment areas include:

Smile lines: also called the nasolabial folds, are the lines that run from the corners of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
Marionette lines: the lines that run downward from the corners of the mouth.
Corners of the mouth: also called the oral commissure, if these are turned downward it can make you look as though you’re sad or angry.
Jowl: the area on either side of the chin, where skin can sag due to loss of facial volume.
