One way to get rid of age-related changes in the facial skin (wrinkles or flabbiness) is to inject the filler under the skin. Now this procedure is very popular, because with her you can restore youth without surgery and serious consequences. But is it harmless, as the manufacturers say, we'll try to figure it out further.
It has already been proved that among the means used to get rid of wrinkles, fillers made on the basis of hyaluronic acid are the most effective and safe. Such drugs, unlike those that contain synthetic and even biosynthetic components, are very well combined with the skin, and after a certain period of time they disintegrate and are completely eliminated from the body.
Why is this acid used, and not collagen, because it also smooths the wrinkles? And because it not only lasts longer in the subcutaneous space, but also keeps moisture, which increases the elasticity and elasticity of the skin, and this is exactly what is required for the rejuvenation process.
In cosmetology, fillers with hyaluronic acid are used for:
- correction of the shape (oval) of the face;
- giving a slight swelling of the lips;
- to eliminate deep wrinkles, most often near the eyes, and nasolabial folds.
Lip enlargement with fillers with hyaluronic acid
Fillers are gels that fill the subcutaneous space, so they are used for:
- increase in the volume of the lips ;
- correction of their contours;
- correction of their shape and asymmetry;
- moisturizing the skin of the lips.
The most popular fillers, led to the lips, are:
- Estylane Lipp (Swedish company Q-Med);
- Juvederm (American Allergan);
- Surgiderm (French firm);
- Teosyal (from Switzerland).
Fillers with hyaluronic acid under the eyes
The skin in the eye area is the most sensitive and thin, so it is necessary to choose a very soft remedy for it. Such are helium fillers with hyaluronic acid. They perfectly cope with the formed black circles under the eyes, mimic wrinkles, the effect of falling eyes and teary furrows.
Depending on the problem, you may need to use fillers of different density: from softer to more dense. This should be decided by a cosmetologist who will conduct the procedure.
Changing the face shape by fillers
Correction of the contour of the face (cheekbones, cheeks and chin) is also done with fillers with hyaluronic acid. To add extra volume (swelling effect), these parts of the face use denser gels, such as:
- Restylane SubQ and Restylane Volum;
- Juvederm Voluma;
- Belotero Intense;
- Stylage XL;
- Teosyal Ultra Deep;
- Teosyal Ultimate.
After the first procedure, the effect lasts about 6 months, and after the second - for 12 months.
Why choose fillers with hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is part of the intercellular marix, so the body does not reject it as a foreign body. In addition, attention should be paid to the following aspects:
- the likelihood of developing an allergy is very low;
- the filler is absorbed and withdrawn by itself, without the participation of other drugs or the application of effort;
- The achieved effect is observed for 1 year;
- the face looks natural;
- the procedure of administration is safe.
All contraindications available for the use of fillers apply to preparations made on the basis of hyaluronic acid.
