What is Dermal Filler injection?


Dermal fillers are soft, gel-like substances, which are injected beneath the skin to restore volume and fullness, smooth lines, soften facial creases, or enhance facial contours.

Clients have been asking, “Are there any differences between Anti-Wrinkle Injection and Dermal Filler Injection, since the main purpose for both injections is to create a youthful and natural look?”. The answer is yes, there are differences between them, but combining both of these injections on different parts of the face can create amazing results.


There are a variety of substances used in dermal fillers, some synthetic and some are naturally occurring. The most commonly used substance is Hyaluronic Acid (HA). It is Natural Substance found in our skin, which helps to keep skin hydrated and plump. It may last up to 6 months or longer depending on how fast individuals can metabolize the particles. This substance also has been used to treat patients with arthritis and it is a common ingredient in some skincare products. According to Scientific American, by injecting HA, not only resolves age-related cosmetic issue, but it may stimulate collagen production in the long term.

Collagen is a protein that can be found in various types of connective tissues, such as skin, bones, ligaments, and tendons. Collagen can strengthen skin, improve skins elasticity and hydration. As we age, our bodies start to slow down production of of collagen, leading to dry skin and formation of fine lines and wrinkles.
