Soft Tissue Fillers

Fillers differ from each other by their formulations, cross linking, softness, and durability. Dermal fillers utilize hyaluronic acid, a water retaining molecule naturally present in your skin. These products are injected into the deep layers of the skin to plump and enhance the overlying skin to reduce deep lines or enlarge the lips. Others contain synthetic ingredients that are biocompatible, proven by years of use in surgery. These include biomodulators such as Sculptra that are injected into the deep layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production to provide volume to the soft tissues and tone the skin. Regardless of their ingredients, all fillers work to add volume and support to your skin. Volume loss and redistribution are universal results of aging. Soft tissue fillers have been demonstrated to effectively restore lost volume to areas of need in the lower face.
