With every passing year, you likely notice changes to your skin and facial volume. Loss of volume can happen as you age, leaving hollow areas beneath your eyes, on your cheeks, and around the lips. Fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss contribute to the visible signs of aging.
Dermal fillers in Murfreesboro are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that can help smooth out lines and wrinkles and restore volume, leaving you with a more youthful appearance.
Dermal fillers are made of Hyaluronic Acid, similar to the natural compound found in your own tissues. They can be used to smooth creases and folds, plump lips, and fill in areas of your face where you have lost volume. Dermal fillers do not stop facial muscle movement. Dermal fillers, like Juvederm, do not have the same effect as a neuromodulator, like Botox.
The results of injectable dermal fillers are generally subtle and natural looking for people in Murfreesboro. During your consultation with our skilled injector, you will discuss your cosmetic concerns and choose the dermal filler that can offer the best results for your aesthetic goals.
Dermal fillers have also been used to improve recessed acne scars or reconstruct contour deformities. However, while there is a wide range of potential, dermal fillers cannot achieve the same results as a brow lift, eye lift, or facelift (all of which involve skin removal). It is also important to remember that dermal fillers are a temporary treatment and that to maintain long-term results, you will require ongoing treatments.
The most popular substance used in a dermal filler is FDA-approved hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in your body and face. With aging, the amount of natural hyaluronic acid decreases. Other fillers are composed of substances like calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, or nonabsorbable polymethyl methacrylate microspheres.
Each type of dermal filler has advantages and disadvantages. For example, a softer filler would be used around the lips, while fillers with greater structure are used to enhance the cheekbones. The results of Murfreesboro dermal fillers are relatively predictable, with minimal risk and side effects.
Hyaluronic acid is a natural compound found in your body and face. It attracts water and helps to keep your skin hydrated and plump. This type of dermal filler is reversible and can be dissolved.
Calcium Hydroxylapatite is a compound naturally found in bone. It can be used to restore deep volume loss and improve deep wrinkles. This product can be placed more superficially with precise dilution techniques.
This naturally occurring compound functions as a biostimulator. A biostimulator will kick-start or stimulate your body to produce collagen in the targeted treatment areas. Within 12-24 hours after your treatment, your body will absorb the biostimulator and your appearance will return to baseline. This treatment typically requires multiple sessions and produces visible results six to eight weeks after your final treatment.
The duration of the visible dermal filler effect depends on several factors, including the product type, your metabolic rate, and the location of product placement. For example, a soft, hyaluronic acid filler placed in a mobile area like the lips may last six to twelve months. A dense, hyaluronic acid filler placed in a less mobile area like along the cheekbone may last 18 months or longer. Calcium hydroxylapatite fillers can last roughly 12 months, and polylactic acid results can last two or more years.
Dermal fillers are injected during an office procedure, and there is little to no downtime. Most people in Murfreesboro notice the results immediately, and a few may notice a small amount of bruising at the injection site.
