Wrinkles and lines in the face naturally develop as we age due to changes in our body, such as reduced production of hyaluronic acid. At Premier Solutions, we provide various therapies to reduce the appearance of these lines and wrinkles and give you a more youthful look. One of the treatments we offer are dermal fillers.

 

Let’s take a closer look at dermal fillers, how they work, and the benefits they provide. Have more questions? Contact Premier Solutions & Weight Loss today to get the answers.

 

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are a type of injection that plump up wrinkles, smooth lines, and restore volume to the face, somewhat similar to injectable neurotoxins. They can contain various different substances, including:

 

  • Hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring acid that gives skin volume and keeps it hydrated
  • Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa), a substance that occurs in your bones that’s used for deeper wrinkles
  • Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a substance which helps your body produce collagen
  • Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), which consists of collagen and very small balls that stay under your skin, giving it volume and keeping it firm. 

 

These are injected beneath the skin, and results can often be seen right away. Depending on the exact filler used and where it is injected, the treatment can last anywhere from six months up to several years. Some of the areas we treat at Premier Solutions & Weight Loss include:

 

  • Lips
  • Cheeks
  • Jaw line
  • Chin
  • Nasolabial folds
  • And other areas

 

In most cases, you’re able to get back to normal activities immediately after getting dermal filler injection. 

 

Do Dermal Fillers Have Side Effects?

As with any treatment, there is some risk of side effects or complications. However, most side effects are mild, and serious complications are exceptionally rare.

Potential side effects include:

 

  • Bruising
  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Pain
  • Tenderness
  • Itching

 

Although rare, there is also potential for allergic reactions, so be sure to speak to our healthcare team so they can answer any questions before dermal filler treatment.
