What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectables that can accomplish a variety of cosmetic tasks non-surgically. They can be used to combat age-related volume loss in the lips, cheeks, or temples, they can help reshape the chin when used as part of a liquid chin augmentation procedure, and they can also fill in entrenched folds or creases, providing the patient with a more youthful, inviting appearance. Fillers can also be combined to offer patients a comprehensive liquid facelift, peeling off years from their perceived age.

What Are Dermal Fillers Made Of?

Many dermal fillers, such as Restylane and the RHA Collection, are formulated with hyaluronic acid (HA). This naturally occurring compound is responsible for the suppleness, resilience, and hydration of a youthful complexion. Over time, HA production slows, necessitating a cosmetic intervention with facial fillers in Westchester, NY. HA binds to water molecules, flooding the skin with moisture for an organic glow. Other injectables, such as Sculptra, are engineered with compounds that encourage the natural replacement of collagen, a vital protein that supports a strong, youthful skin structure. The gel-like poly-L-lactic acid in Sculptra’s formula triggers the skin to begin producing more collagen, which, over time, leads to a more radiant, attractive complexion. Sculptra is a biostimulant that can also be instrumental in facilitating the revision of deep facial scars.

What is the Difference Between Facial and Dermal Fillers

The primary difference between facial and dermal fillers is how these terms are used, though they often overlap in practice.

1. Facial Fillers: This term typically refers to injectable treatments specifically used to restore volume and enhance contours in the face. They address areas like the cheeks, lips, and jawline or reduce the appearance of wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. The goal is to rejuvenate and refresh the face, providing a youthful appearance.

2. Dermal Fillers: Dermal fillers are a broader term for substances injected under the skin (dermis) to plump, smooth, or restore volume. While dermal fillers are primarily used on the face, they can also be applied to other body areas to enhance features or correct volume loss. For example, dermal fillers can also be used on the hands or neck to rejuvenate these areas.

Facial fillers are a type of dermal filler specifically for the face, but "dermal fillers" can apply to any area treated under the skin. Both serve the same general purpose: enhancing or restoring volume and smoothing lines.

Is There Any Recovery After A Dermal Filler Session?

With dermal fillers, patients can enjoy all the positive effects of an anti-aging treatment with none of the downtime, scarring, or risk of complications associated with plastic surgery. Sessions typically last 10-15 minutes, after which patients can immediately resume their normal activities. Minor swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites may occur. This can be well-managed with an ice pack or over-the-counter pain medications. These side effects will rarely interfere with the ability to return to work or school, however.
