What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are a non-surgical treatment that helps smooth out the lines in the face and achieve a younger, more rejuvenated look. The filler is injected into the skin where it will plump up the targeted area to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. This treatment can take years off your face and help you feel more confident about your looks. These fillers treat bags under your eyes, wrinkles, and crow’s feet around the eyes, as well as laugh lines, forehead wrinkles, and crepey skin along the neck.
Numerous dermal fillers are available on the market, but they aren’t all the same. Each one has a unique formula, and some provide better results to certain areas of the face and neck than others. Before you decide to get a dermal filler injection, you’ll want to know which products are designed for the area you want to work on.
Cheek Fillers
The best filler for the cheek area is Juvederm with Dr. Lapuerta, which can add plumpness while creating more structure to the cheekbone. The result is a more youthful face you’ll enjoy looking at in the mirror. Juvederm Voluma is FDA-approved and fills in moderate to severe wrinkles along the cheeks, nose, and mouth. It has been labeled as a liquid facelift because of the dramatic and pleasing results.
Jawline Fillers
Add some contour to your face along the jawline with Juvederm fillers. This area has a lot of bone, so it needs a filler that can enhance the natural line.
Brow Fillers
Fillers are a subtle way to lift the brow area and smooth wrinkles. This area can begin to droop as skin loses its elasticity.
Fillers for Smile Lines
One of the best options for the mid-face area is Juvederm VOLLURE, which fills in wrinkles around the mouth. The skin will appear smoother for a more youthful appearance. This formula is ideal for the smile lines because it moves with your mouth as you smile and talk.
Forehead Fillers
From furrowed brows to quizzical looks, your forehead gets a workout daily. This area can be prone to wrinkles and is often one of the first to showcase a fine line or two. Dermal injections are one way to stop the hands of time with Botox being the best known of these products. As it relaxes the muscles at the site of the injection, the skin looks smoother and younger.
Lip Fillers
Lips are different from other areas of the face because of how personal they are to each individual, which means personalized treatment is important, too. Juvederm Volbella offers a natural-looking solution that can be customized by a skilled treatment provider like Dr. Lapuerta. Fillers are used to treat lines on the lips as well as wrinkles that form along the edge.
Chin Fillers
If you feel you have a weak chin, you may benefit from a Juvederm product in this area. The filler adds definition, making the face look longer and more well-defined. Injections can make your face look slimmer and fill in any wrinkles.
Neck Fillers
Fillers aid in smoothing out the wrinkles of the neck and softening the area’s look. Juvederm VOLLURE treats horizontal wrinkles along the neck, which is an area prone to show signs of aging first. Neck skin is even thinner than facial skin, which allows it to start wrinkling sooner.
Fillers for the Temple
Juvederm provides some much-needed assistance to this sensitive area. The skin around the temples is thinner than the rest of the face. Similar to what you have on the back of your hand, the skin around the temple area will show aging faster. When you add facial fillers to the temple area, you redirect the attention to your eyes.
Dermal fillers are a way to enjoy younger, healthier-looking skin without the cost and recovery time of surgery. While these injections don’t provide permanent results, they are an affordable way to look your best for up to 12 or 18 months before needing to have the procedure repeated.
