What are Dermal Fillers?
Ageing can make you lose subcutaneous fat on your face, right from the cheeks to the sides of your lips. Wondering what are fillers? These gel-like substances are injected beneath the skin to help smooth facial creases, restore lost volume, and enhance contours thus restoring youthful skin.
Also known as dermal fillers, they are used to smooth out lines around the nose and mouth (marionette lines, smile lines and parentheses). Dermal fillers are also used to enhance and restore volume to cheeks or temples, diminish vertical lip lines, plump and enhance lips and improve symmetry among facial features (facial contouring).

FAQs
While fillers add volume to the hollow parts of your face, especially in the eye and cheek region, botox injections restrict muscle movement in the target area to achieve a youthful look. This means that the latter limits flexibility in comparison.
Depending on the type of filler injection administered, dermal fillers can last from 6 months to 2 years.
Once you notice the signs of ageing, you can start getting fillers injected into your skin. The ideal age for this begins after turning 20.
Yes, the results of dermal fillers are almost immediate. Since you might experience some pain and swelling in the target area post-treatment, it is advised to wait a day or two to see the final results.
