Dermal fillers are an effective solution offered in many dental offices to enhance facial aesthetics by smoothing out wrinkles, lines and folds around the nose and mouth. These treatments not only restore the natural volume and contours of your face but also provide a more youthful and revitalized appearance. As people age, the facial skin can stretch, leading to a loss of facial volume. Factors such as the natural reduction of subcutaneous fat, sun exposure, lifestyle choices and heredity also play significant roles in how our facial skin ages. Dermal fillers, including popular options like JUVÉDERM®, are instrumental in diminishing facial lines and restoring fullness.
Dermal fillers work to:
- Â Plump thin lips
- Improve the appearance of recessed scars
- Enhance shallow contours of the face
- Soften facial creases and wrinkles
Most dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that is crucial for maintaining skin hydration and elasticity. These fillers often include an anesthetic to ensure the comfort of the procedure. Typically, the results from dermal fillers can last up to one year after just one treatment session.
Dermal Fillers with PRP
In addition to regular dermal fillers, our dental practice also offers innovative treatments using Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). PRP involves using the patient’s own blood components to stimulate skin healing and rejuvenation. This method is particularly appealing because it is a natural procedure that leverages your body’s healing abilities, potentially leading to more sustainable and harmonious results. When PRP is used as part of your dermal filler treatment, it can:
- Accelerate natural healing processes
- Enhance skin texture and tone
- Reduce wrinkles by stimulating collagen production
Our dentist may suggest a PRP treatment if you are looking for a natural approach to skin care. This type of facial aesthetic treatment is often considered alongside traditional filler treatments to optimize results.
