The key ingredient in Dermal Fillers is hyaluronic acid; this is a naturally occurring substance found and produced within the body. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar module that is broken down over time. Depending on the manufacturer, the hyaluronic acid can be synthetic or derivative from animals.
Naturally occurring hyaluronic acid is broken down every few days within the body however hyaluronic acid in Dermal Filler has been developed in order to last for months. This longevity allows it to be used in aesthetic treatments, to add volume or reverse the visible signs of ageing in the face, neck, hands etc (see treatment areas below).
Dermal Filler can be used to volumise, restructure, and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles; studies have shown this treatment can also stimulate the production of collagen and elastin within the skin. Another additional benefit in using dermal fillers is that they attract water within the body, bringing hydration to the area the product is placed.
