What is a dermal filler?

Facial fillers are a type of cosmetic treatment that helps soften wrinkles. The treatment can take up to an hour, and usually requires local anesthesia. You may experience some swelling, mild discomfort, and bruising for 5-7days after the procedure. Some patients may require touch-up injections after the swelling reduces to garner the best results. The length of treatment results depends upon your skin type, the severity of the wrinkles, and the filler used.

While dermal fillers are primarily for treating wrinkles, these also help treat smile lines, plump up the lips, and reduces the appearance of scars. The most widespread types of dermal fillers in use include:

- Calcium hydroxylapatite (lasts for 18 months)

- Collagen (lasts for up to 4 months)

- Hyaluronic acid (last for 6 to 12 months)

- Poly-L-lactic acid (lasts for two years)

- Polymethylmethacrylate beads (the results are permanent)

Are dermal fillers safe?

As with any treatment, facial fillers also comes with risks. However, if you choose to get your dermal fillers from an experienced and well-trained dermatologist, you can minimize the risk significantly. Some of the rare risks associated with dermal fillers include allergic reaction, bleeding, or bruising at the injection site, infection, irregularities in the contours, firmness, and surface of the skin.

As a general rule, we don't recommend dermal fillers for individuals with suppressed immune systems or for those who are on blood-thinning medications. Nevertheless, the percentage of patients who experience side effects or complications with dermal filler treatment is extremely low.
