Very Popular… Dermal Fillers

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009
Dermal fillers have become a very popular option in our Savoy (Champaign-Urbana area) office. Men and women love them because it instantly plumps, lifts and enhances their face and hands.
As we age, we begin to lose fat in the face, particularly in nasolabial folds (the lines that form from the nose to the mouth) and in our cheeks.  Collagen begins to break down as well. This creates lines and wrinkle. Skin begins to sag along with facial structures that leave us wondering who stole our youth in the middle of the night while we were innocently sleeping! Vertical lines develop around our mouth. Those once luscious, full lips become deflated. We are left wondering where we are supposed to apply our lipstick.
Dermal fillers are products that are injected into the dermis to restore volume loss and smooth away lines and folds in the skin.  They can also be used to fill in or plump depressed scars, including acne scars.
There are several forms of dermal fillers being used with success today.  Some include hyaluronic acids (Juvederm, Perlane, Restylane, Hylaform…), collagen (Zyplast, Zyderm, Artfill, Evolence…), synthetic fillers (Radiesse, Sculptra…), and autologous fat (your own fat).
The various types of dermal fillers have individual strengths and weaknesses.  Some last longer than others. Some are thicker or thinner and are utilized for specific issues.   Dr. Castillo will inform you which filler would be appropriate for your needs.
Common side effects are mild swelling, and redness. Bruising, beading and allergic reactions can also occur.
Dermal fillers cannot give the same type of results as a cosmetic surgery procedure such as a face-lift, mini face-lift or forehead lift.  However, because of rising demand for “lunch time” quick fixes with little recovery time and side effects, dermal fillers are able to meet the needs of many who chose not to have surgery to correct their aging appearance.
Dermal fillers are a great option for someone who does not want the higher initial investment or recovery time of surgery, but desires some subtle improvements that results in a more youthful, rested appearance.
