Fresh, glowing skin is one of the most important issues in every person's daily life, and unfortunately it is affected and lost with advancing age and other factors such as not following a healthy diet, insufficient sleep, not drinking enough water, tobacco use and the like. Of course, with advances in science and technology, today beauty can easily be restored to the face and the desired shape given to it. One of the most common cosmetic procedures is dermal filler injection, which has now drawn the attention of many people and has become one of the most popular methods. Stay with us in the rest of this article so that we can review together everything you need to know about dermal fillers.
1. Research dermal fillers
Whether you have only recently started thinking about dermal filler injection, or you have already decided to have dermal fillers injected, you should prepare yourself before going for a consultation or injection. There is a great deal of information about aesthetic dermatology that is very important to pay attention to. However, if you feel the amount of available information is beyond your capacity to process, focus on the following:
• Have fillers injected only by a skilled and experienced doctor. Everyone's age and face are different. It takes time and training to know the right amount of filler to use and exactly where to inject it to get the best individual results. In short, the best advice for a proper, high-quality procedure is to go to a dermatologist's office for filler injection.
• Research the different types of fillers available so that you can have an informed interaction with your provider during the consultation session.
• Do not give in to pressure from beauty consultants to have filler injection on the same day as your consultation. Especially if you have not had filler before, you may want to take some time to think it over carefully. Some aesthetic clinics waive their consultation fee if the procedure is done on the same day, but if you are not properly prepared (see the dos and don'ts below), unwanted complications may occur for you. Have fillers injected only when you feel ready.
• If you have a history of facial cold sores, piercing the lip with a needle can increase the likelihood of an outbreak. Talk to your aesthetic provider about the risks ahead.
• Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not receive dermal fillers.
• People who are allergic to the ingredients of fillers should not receive them either, so make sure you research its ingredients and share your concerns with the specialists at the aesthetic clinic.
2. What is a filler and what is it used for?
First of all, you need to become familiar with the nature of fillers. Fillers are substances that, by injecting them, you can eliminate skin wrinkles, sagging, hollows, and darkness and dullness under the eyes and in other areas, and bring the face to the desired shape. Fillers cause rejuvenation and correct facial wrinkles. The use of filler does not end with these, and by injecting it you can increase the volume of different areas of the face, and if you are not satisfied, you can return it to its previous state by injecting an enzyme. Facial fillers come in different types and are divided into the following categories:
• Hyaluronic acid
• Calcium hydroxylapatite
• Poly-L-lactic acid
• Polymethyl methacrylate
• Fat
Hyaluronic acid is the best category of fillers. These fillers are known as the safest filler because of the natural hyaluronic acid that also exists in human body tissue. For this reason, this filler is suitable for everyone and will bring them the best result.
Filler injection does not need anesthesia, and only before the injection is local anesthetic injected into the target area. Inovosense fillers are among the hyaluronic acid fillers, and lidocaine is used in their composition, and for this reason the client will feel the least pain during injection. We will talk more about these fillers in the rest of this article.
3. How are dermal fillers injected?
Every procedure related to beauty must be carried out by a specialist doctor in reputable centers, because the choice of doctor and type of filler is very important and plays a significant role in the result obtained after injection. After choosing the doctor and the filler, the target area is identified and the doctor begins injecting with very thin needles. As stated, if the chosen filler does not contain lidocaine, the doctor uses local anesthetic to reduce pain, but with Inovosense fillers you will no longer need to use an anesthetic.
4. Which areas are suitable for filler injection?
Fillers are injected in most areas of the face, and according to your type of need, the doctor chooses the best area for injection. The amount of gel used for injection also differs depending on the area and your expectation from the injection. For example, the volume of gel used for the frown line differs from the amount of gel used for lip injection, and for this reason their costs are different. In general, fillers can be injected into the cheek, chin, marionette lines, smile lines, face modeling, under-eyes, lips and so on.
5. How long do dermal fillers last?
One of the most important points you should know about dermal fillers is that these gels are not permanent, and in fact this is one of their advantages. Dermal fillers allow you to change the shape of your face and, depending on the quality of the filler, last between 6 and 18 months. Of course, depending on each person's lifestyle and skin type, this period can be shorter or longer. A noteworthy point about fillers is that if you are not satisfied with the gel result, you can easily return the injected area to its previous state.
6. What are the disadvantages of dermal filler injection?
Unlike many cosmetic procedures, gel injection has no particular side effects, and after injection you may only face minor effects such as bruising at the injection site, itching, inflammation, swelling and redness. But you should know that all of these effects are normal and disappear after a short time. Of course, if filler injection is not performed by a specialist doctor or the filler chosen for injection is not of good quality, there is a risk of dangerous and serious complications such as blindness, blood clotting and so on.
7. What are the benefits of dermal filler injection?
With their hydrating property, fillers make the facial skin fresher and more vibrant.
Other benefits of gel injection include the following:
• Correcting skin wrinkles
• Increasing the skin's collagen and moisture
• Adding volume to desired areas (contouring)
• Immediate and fast result after injection
8. Filler and Botox: two separate categories
Using Botox is different from using filler. Botox paralyzes the muscles and prevents the muscles from contracting and relaxing. This prevents more wrinkles from forming on the face. Filler, however, is a filling agent that increases volume in the injected area and hydrates the skin; as a result, wrinkles are corrected and the surface of the face appears smooth. Depending on the result you have in mind from these procedures, your doctor will suggest the best method.
9. Eliminating deep wrinkles with filler!
Inovosense Style filler has a good ability to correct deep facial lines and wrinkles. This filler can be used to add volume to different areas of the face such as the cheek, chin and temple.
10. The result of filler injection!
Finally, we need to talk about the result. The result of dermal filler injection is determined according to your need and your goal for it. For example, if you decide to have filler injected for lip volume and want to have prominent lips, compared with when you want to keep the natural shape of your lips, the amount of injected gel will be less or more, and naturally you will see a different result as well. Inovosense Smile filler is used for adding volume to the lips, and its result will be to your liking.
