With increasing age, fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging start to appear on our face. Dermal fillers address these issues. Different faces show different signs of aging, which is why it is necessary to cover these signs with minor touch-ups over time. If we don’t address these signs promptly, it may lead to the need for a surgical facelift.
Many people ask whether they need to get dermal fillers repeatedly. The simple answer is that it depends on the ingredients of the filler brand you use and how well you follow the aftercare instructions. Therefore, if you opt for fillers, it’s essential to consider these factors beforehand and consult your dermatologist or aesthetic physician to get the best guidance.
How the face begins to lose shape:
After the age of 24, many people face situations in their lives that impact their personality and face. Daily social life and stress management play a significant role in this, and its effects are visible on the face. Between the ages of 16 to 24, most people are unaware of how to manage these factors, and after the age of 25, minor signs of aging start becoming prominent on the face. These signs include lines and wrinkles, leading to visible changes on the face. These fine lines and wrinkles can be controlled or reduced with fillers or skin boosters.
Stress and Face Shape Changes
Stress is a significant part of people’s lives nowadays, and it often leads to rapid sagging in the upper face, changes in eyebrow shape, under-eye hollowness, dark circles, and skin discoloration. Those experiencing such stress-related signs should consider dermal fillers for their face, as these signs can eventually distort the face’s shape.
What is the Right Time to Start Aesthetic Procedures?
Many people begin aesthetic treatments and procedures around the age of 35, thinking it’s the right time. However, by then, significant aging signs have already appeared on their face. Starting treatments at this stage can be more costly, and desired results may not be achieved. In such cases, people often demand their face to look like it did 10 years ago, but this isn’t immediately possible. They might need to opt for combination therapies, including Botox, fillers, and threads, to achieve desired results.
How Do Dermal Fillers Work?
Dermal fillers are used for augmentation, providing volume to areas of the face where volume loss has occurred. They fill up wrinkles and lines, making the face look smoother and improving appearance. Additionally, they contour sagging areas of the face, such as cheekbones and jawlines.
Types of Dermal Fillers
There are three basic types of dermal fillers:
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers: These fillers are made of a substance similar to what is naturally found in the body, making them safe to use. HA fillers last 6 to 12 months and help with volume and contouring.
- Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers: These fillers last 12 to 18 months and have similar functions to HA fillers but are made of calcium-based microspheres. They are also considered safe for the skin.
- Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) Fillers: These advanced fillers last 1 to 2 years. They stimulate collagen production in the skin while providing volume. PLLA threads are also available, made of the same material. PLLA fillers last longer than other fillers and offer better results in sculpting and volumizing.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers
- Dermal fillers quickly cover signs of aging and give you natural-looking results.
- They can address multiple aging signs, such as fine lines, wrinkles, contouring, and volume loss.
- Fillers can be used not only on the face but also on the hands and body, slowing down the aging process in these areas.
How to Shape Face Permanently
Many people want their face to have a permanent youthful sculpt. To achieve this, one must start with dermal fillers to restore volume and then use threads where required. A combination of different non-surgical procedures can help maintain the face’s shape and prevent aging effects. Early care can help preserve the face with minor methods. Skin care is also crucial, along with regular consultations with a dermatologist.
