How Dermal Fillers Can Rejuvenate Your Skin

How Dermal Fillers Can Rejuvenate Your Skin

Aging comes with lots of changes. You lose volume, plumpness, and hydration in your skin. With dermal fillers, however, you can restore some of these markers of youth. 

At Maryland Plastic Surgery and PURE MedSpa, we offer premium dermal filler injections. If you want to boost your skin’s volume and smooth wrinkles from the inside out, these treatments are for you. 

So what are dermal fillers, and what can they do for your skin? Learn more about how these treatments can restore youth to your complexion.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid and tiny particles that fill in your skin’s wrinkles and fine lines. 

Hyaluronic acid is an important compound that your skin naturally produces. It helps your body generate collagen and hydrate your skin. 

As you age, you produce less and less hyaluronic acid. When injected into your skin, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers like Juvéderm stimulate collagen production and nourish your complexion. This increased hydration reduces age-related dryness and wrinkles. 

As hyaluronic acid stimulates collagen production, the other ingredients in the formula cushion and fill in fine lines and wrinkles. 

Skin Benefits of Dermal Filler Injections

Choosing dermal fillers for skin rejuvenation offers numerous anti-aging benefits. 

Smooth Facial Creases

Whether you have fine lines, wrinkles, or deep facial creases, dermal fillers can reduce their appearance. 

Many dermal fillers like Juvéderm are gel-based, which means that they have a thicker formula that smooths wrinkles. We can inject the filler into areas that show signs of aging, including around your mouth and under your eyes. 

Reduce the Appearance of Scars

Scars that have a dimpled appearance start to fade once we inject dermal fillers under your skin. These are called depressed scars and can come from acne breakouts or facial trauma. 

If you want to smooth your skin and get rid of rippled scars, dermal fillers can help you achieve these goals. 

Boost Skin Volume 

Aged skin tends to look sallow or hollowed out. This effect happens because your complexion loses youthful volume as the production of hyaluronic acid and collagen slows down. 

Dermal fillers boost your skin’s volume to fill in areas that look sunken in or hollow. Common areas of volume loss include cheeks, under-eyes, and necks. 

The physical filler formula cushions and plumps your skin as hyaluronic acid stimulates collagen production. Increased collagen can make your skin look more youthful and voluminous over time. 

Plump Lips

Lip filler serves a unique purpose: to smooth and cushion your lips. 

Many people lose their kissable pouts as they age because of volume loss. Dermal filler restores sensual volume to your lips and reduces lip wrinkles at the same time. 

The hyaluronic acid in lip filler also increases hydration, giving your lips a smoother appearance. Say goodbye to dry, cracked, and flat lips with dermal fillers!

Convenient Skin Treatments

Dermal fillers are convenient and do not require much time out of your busy schedule. 

A typical dermal filler appointment takes under an hour to complete. There is no downtime required afterward; you can simply return to normal activities. 

You don’t even have to wear special bandages or coverings. Once your injections are done, you can return to work, school, or home with no restrictions. 

We highly recommend applying sunscreen and moisturizer after dermal filler injections. Your skin will need extra protection as the areas of injection heal and adjust to the filler formula. 

How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?

Dermal filler results last for about six months. Your results may last longer, depending on how quickly your body metabolizes the formula. Some patients enjoy their results for up to two years. 

Over time, your body absorbs the filler formula particles. When you start to notice volume loss, wrinkles, and visible skin aging again, it is time for another appointment. 

The effects of dermal fillers will continue to benefit your skin. Since hyaluronic acid stimulates collagen production, your skin should become more elastic and youthful-looking, even after the filler is absorbed into your body. 

Good Candidates for Dermal Fillers

We perform dermal filler injections for adult patients of all ages. Good candidates include younger patients looking for enhanced facial volume and older patients who want to reduce wrinkles.

No matter how old you are, your skin can benefit from the effects of dermal fillers. For example, many patients in their 20s and 30s enjoy getting lip fillers for a more kissable pout. 

You should have realistic expectations about your dermal filler results. This procedure is not permanent; you will need maintenance injections to keep up your smooth, voluminous skin. Fortunately, these appointments are convenient and quick, so it is not much hassle to schedule follow-ups. 

If you are ready to cushion, hydrate, and plump your skin and lips, dermal filler is the treatment for you!
