Dermal fillers help skin appear smoother and more youthful. They can be used to treat a diverse range of cosmetic concerns, including nasal labial folds, marionette lines, and other fine lines and wrinkles on the face. The experienced dermatologists at Southeast Dermatology in Pasadena and Houston, TX, offer dermal fillers to help you look younger and more refreshed.
How Dermal Fillers Help
Natural collagen levels in the skin begin to decrease with age, which causes the skin to lose elasticity and volume. This can result in fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Dermal fillers help improve skin elasticity by filling out or plumping up the skin where volume has been lost. Some dermal fillers also help by supplementing or restoring diminished collagen levels in the skin.
Dermal fillers are injected directly into the skin using a fine needle. A treatment session could take between 15 minutes to one hour, depending on how large an area is being treated. With some types of fillers, results are visible right away after treatment and can last for several months before additional injections are needed. Following treatment, skin appears smoother, refreshed, and more youthful, while creases, fine lines, wrinkles, and folds are dramatically diminished.
