5 Common Complaints Dermal Fillers Help

Dermal fillers are versatile gel-like substances that add artificial volume to the areas of your face you choose. Often containing hyaluronic acid, which your tissues naturally produce, dermal fillers feel soft in a similar way to natural fat beneath the skin. 

Modern dermal fillers can last for up to two years, but most provide results for 6-12 months. Some fillers are dissolvable if you don’t like how they look, but if you enjoyed your results, you can repeat the treatment after your results diminish with time. 

At Pure Bliss Med Spa in Sandy Springs, Georgia, experienced injector Asha Hill, NP, places fillers strategically to build your desired result. You might decide to target just one part of your face or several to enhance your appearance.

People get fillers to address minor irregularities in their facial contours, some of which develop with age. Here are five features you can address with fillers at Pure Bliss Med Spa:

1. Thin lips

Luscious lips never go out of style, but not everyone has them naturally. If you think your lips could use a little more volume, fillers are the perfect choice of treatment.

Lip filler doesn’t only make your lips fuller or larger. It can also:

• Correct contour irregularities
• Make your lips more proportionate to each other
• Correct asymmetry
• Smooth lip wrinkles

Asha can help you decide how much filler is appropriate to help you reach your lip enhancement goals. 

2. Under-eye hollows

Hollow under-eyes can make it look like you have permanent dark circles under your eyes. If you think you look chronically sleepy because of hollow under-eyes, we have good news: Fillers can awaken your appearance.

Under-eye filler, or tear trough filler, can restore volume to the areas under your eyes. Asha places hyaluronic acid filler carefully to get rid of shadows and wrinkles in this region.

3. Wrinkles around the mouth

Fillers work well for minimizing wrinkles and fine lines by adding volume to the creased areas. Many people develop nasolabial folds, or smile lines, alongside their mouths as they age. Fillers can soften these lines by filling them in.

4. Sagging or sunken cheeks

Your cheeks lose volume with age, leaving you with a more hollow-faced appearance. You might not realize how much the fat in your cheeks makes you look younger until it’s gone. Fortunately, dermal fillers can restore volume to your cheeks and temples to make them look less sunken.

5. Scars

Some scars are recessed (indented) because the skin in that area hasn’t regenerated enough new collagen tissue. You might be left with recessed scars on your face after inflammatory acne, chickenpox, or a mole removal procedure.

Using a small amount of dermal filler, Asha can boost volume in the scar to make it less noticeable. Soft tissue fillers offer immediate scar-reduction results compared to other treatments that take time to build natural collagen, like skin needling or laser treatments.
