What Are Dermal Fillers?

---

Fillers help to diminish facial lines and restore volume and fullness in the face. They can be very helpful in those with early signs of aging, or as a value-added part of facial rejuvenation surgery. 

What do they do?

• Smooth deep under-eye circles
• Lift cheekbones and enhance contours
• Volumize and smooth lip lines
• Reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds  (creases from the nose to the corner of the mouth)
• Improve the appearance of recessed scars
• Rejuvenate the hands

There are various types of fillers, including hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, which are biodegradable and naturally occurring in the skin. Other types include synthetic fillers like polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA).
