By revolumising in and around the areas of loss, dermal filler can counter some of these aging signs and provide youthful impressions.
Hyaluronic acid is our filler molecule of choice and it is produced naturally in our bodies to support our cellular structure. Clever scientists have harnessed the abilities of hyaluronic acid to create a range of fillers that can be specified to each area.
Another benefit of hyaluronic acid is that it can be dissolved if needed.
Applications for dermal filler include lips, cheeks, chins and more.
