Dermal Fillers

Wrinkle Fillers or Dermal Fillers are the newest, “next generation” substances in cosmetic surgery known as “injectable fillers.” Because patients want treatments that deliver immediate results with little, or no, downtime, Wrinkle Fillers have become extremely popular with consumers. Made of a natural substance known as hyaluronic acid, Wrinkle Fillers are – like wrinkle-relaxing treatments – one of the fastest growing non-surgical aesthetic procedures.

Wrinkle Fillers’ results are usually natural, seen immediately and look about the same as with surgery. However, the body absorbs the hyaluronic acid over time so the injections must be repeated periodically to maintain the refreshed look; Wrinkle Fillers last about six to fifteen months, depending on the type of the filler and the area of concern.

Most cosmetic or plastic surgery procedures used to correct the above facial concerns involve surgery which has its own set of risks and drawbacks. While complications rarely occur at the hands of experienced, board-certified cosmetic doctors, drawbacks include going under anesthesia, dealing with pain and bandages and taking required time away from work and other activities for healing. However an injectable wrinkle filler can accomplish the same facial rejuvenation allowing the patient to leave the doctor’s office immediately with little or no down time, and fully resume his or her normal activities by the next day.

It is important for the patient to attend a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic doctor. At The Body Silk Clinic we employ only experienced doctors who perform the procedure for our patients. During consultations, doctors can learn more about patients and vice versa. Moreover, the consultation visit gives the doctor a chance to evaluate the current state of the patient’s skin and face while discussing options that will help the patient achieve the desired look. Patients should tell their doctor about any allergies, serious medical conditions, medications, vitamins and minerals they may be taking. The doctor will also be able to answer the questions and concerns of the patient fully and help to create a clear understanding of wrinkle fillers and the procedure.

Depending on the procedure and the amount of filler injected, risks include bruising, swelling and infection, all of which are minimized by seeing a board certified practitioner.

In clinical testing, the most commonly reported side effects included temporary injection site reactions like redness, pain and tenderness, skin firmness and lumps and bumps under the skin known as granulomas.

Once treated, patients should take care to ensure treated areas should not be exposed to excessive sun, or very cold weather until initial swelling and redness has been resolved. Laser treatments, chemical peel and other procedures on the skin should be delayed until post dermal filler treatment due to a possible risk of inflammation at the injection site.

Most wrinkle filler providers caution patients that bruising or bleeding at the injection site can be increased by taking aspirin, ibuprofen or any other substance that thins the blood. Wrinkle fillers are not indicated for people who have allergies to bacterial proteins or patients with severe allergies marked by a history of anaphylaxis or multiple severe allergies.

The effect of wrinkle fillers is to try and reverse the changes that are often associated with old age. Its main purpose is to return the skin to its original condition – flexible, firm and youthful in nature. Often they can achieve a more natural appearance than a normal surgical face operation, such as a face lift which stretches the skin into an unnatural position. However, because the body absorbs the hyaluronic acid (a key ingredient as mentioned earlier) over time, the injections must be repeated periodically to maintain the refreshed look; wrinkle fillers can last for between six to fifteen months and they come in different thicknesses, a factor that determines how deep the injection will go into the skin. The thicker the wrinkle filler, the deeper it can be injected.
