What​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Are the Benefits of Dermal Filler Treatments?

They restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance contours.

Restoring Three-Dimensional Facial Volume

In modern aesthetic techniques such as facial rejuvenation, understanding the aging phenomenon involves acknowledging that aging of the facial region is primarily three-dimensional. Our body gradually loses its puffiness, so to speak, as we continue aging. The fat pads, especially in the midface, start to diminish and fall while the underlying bony skeleton becomes progressively reabsorbed. Consequently, the loss of this primary volume leads to the pulling inward and downward of the skin envelope that results in a hollow, weary look which cannot be improved by topical skincare products or conventional neuromodulators like Botox.

From a clinical standpoint, the fundamental benefit of dermal fillers is their ability to instantly restore this natural, internal skeletal work of the face. Dermal fillers containing advanced hyaluronic acid (HA) and collagen biostimulators are administered deep within the fibrous planes and just above the bone layer. The technique of restoring three-dimensional volume from the core up results in repletion and elevation of the tissue at once, and thus a support system is introduced that drapes the skin and recreates the high, rounded cheeks and firm structural lines of the facial contour typical of a young face.

Eliminating Deep Static Wrinkles and Folds

Whereas the main function of neuromodulators is the relaxation of the muscular contractions that produce temporary dynamic lines, the specialty of fillers lies in their targeting of deep lines and wrinkles of a much more permanent nature. One can mention the deep laugh lines (nasolabial folds) that connect the nose and mouth, as well as the marionette lines which point downward from the lip corners: these are the so-called static wrinkles - irreversible fractures of the skin caused, among other things, by the repetition of a specific set of movements and a drastic decrease in volume in the region.

One of the most effective, fastest-working methods available today to fill these deep lines with fillers involves precisely administering a smooth, cohesive gel to a region just below the skin crease. As a matter of fact, by doing this, the practitioner is able to physically move the sunken layer of skin upward until it becomes flush with the neighboring skin. Additionally, since most top-of-the-line hyaluronic acid filler products are highly hydrophilic and are capable of interacting with a large number of water molecules, they can cause the targeted zone to absorb a large quantity of water, which in turn leads to cell enlargement at a very small scale. 

Architectural Enhancement and Facial Resonance

Along these two major anti-aging areas of application, fillers are now increasingly seen as tools for structural reshaping and facial proportion restoration for all ages. There are many people whose genes have gifted or doomed them to a weak or recessed chin, an undefined jawline, as well as lips that are unbalanced or not properly symmetrical. Traditionally, to correct anatomic discrepancies of this nature would involve a major facial surgery such as placing implants or even going through extensive orthognathic operations to reshape the bones.

These days, even the most experienced face beautification specialists only need the right kind of very firm fillers, the so-called high-density (also called high G-prime) dermal fillers, to do all kinds of facial contouring that result in the face having an attractive shape. Their properties allow these fillers to work just like bone as a structural support to the soft tissues. When strategically placed in the mandibular region, the chin apex, and the nose bridge, for example, they bring a beautiful balance, a beautiful straight line and very clean symmetry. These actions allow an aesthetic professional to literally bring into line the very receding part of the chin with both the lips and eyebrows, thereby enhancing the patient's natural beauty through facial mathematics without any surgery.

Protecting Post-Treatment Integrity and Boundaries

For people who require perfect results from their aesthetic interventions, it is extremely important to stick to the rules of how to behave and what not to do for quite some days after the procedure and, in parallel, to protect the filler from mechanical injury. The injected filler material is quite soft and easily deformable at least for the first 48 to 72 hours, and the body tissues really need to be free from any contact or strain in order to get the dermal filler to settle smoothly in the skin layers of the body. Unintentional trauma could displace the filler from its clinically chosen location and result in facial distortion or imbalance.

To let the new sculpture of your face lock in with the greatest structural precision possible, you should not do facial massages (especially the hard type or the ones that push in one direction), sleep on your abdomen (which could flatten your nose or distort facial contours), wear hats (which might press a treated face or the sides of your head) or glasses (if you've had a nose treatment) for a period of days. You should not engage in high-intensity cardio workouts, as such exertion would lead to the extreme dilation of blood vessels, something that might trigger significant swelling and bruising for a very long time. In addition, drinking enough liquids is of utmost importance because hyaluronic acid fillers function in conjunction with your body's own internal water content to produce the complete fullness effect on your face.
