06 Feb Dermal Filler Options
There are so many dermal fillers available, how can you know which is the best for you? At Parson Skin Center, we specialize in dermal fillers and customizing the session to best suit the client’s skin, needs, and goals. Also known as injectable fillers, dermal fillers can help increase volume in the face to provide a more youthful appearance. They can remove or minimize fine lines and wrinkles. Particularly popular around the eyes, they can fill the “eye trough” to reduce bags under the eyes and the look of dark circles. Dermal fillers are also effective in and around the lips for a fuller pout that’s still natural looking with reduced smile lines.
Aging and How Dermal Fillers Can Help
As we age, fine lines and wrinkles increase. It’s also common to lose fat in the face, resulting in a gaunt or hollow look. Dermal fillers are a safe and effective way to plump the face to look younger, healthier, and happier. Most patients start getting interested in dermal fillers in their thirties, when the natural plumpness of their teens and twenties start to fade. However, every person is different. If you’re concerned about lines, wrinkles, or lack of volume at any age, a dermal filler consultation can help determine if injectables are right for you.
Sculptra Dermal Filler Options
An increasingly popular option at Parson Skin Center is Sculptra. Unlike other fillers, Sculptra is both a dermal filler and a way to increase natural collagen production in the body. It works two-fold, initially filling the targeted site with a liquid. Over time, as it stimulates natural collagen growth in the site, the liquid filler evaporates. The result is truly organic, and gives fuller volume that your body produces completely naturally.
Dermal Filler Families
However, there are many additional high-quality dermal fillers to consider. The best one for you depends on your desired results and the type of wrinkle or hollow area being treated. Overall, the most popular dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid wrinkle fillers. There are many types within the category, and results can last from four months to more than one year. Two of the most well-known hyaluronic fillers include Juvederm and Restylane (within these two types, there are also several sub-types).
There are synthetic dermal fillers such as Radiesse and Silicone (Sculptra also falls into this category) as well as collagen fillers. The only way to determine your best plan of action is to schedule a consultation with a leading Scottsdale medispa skin clinic. Call Parson Skin Center at 480-282-8386 to make an appointment.
