Fillers can be used to change the look of your face by filling in diminishing facial volume due to aging and facial expressions. During a filling procedure, your medical professional or licensed physician will evaluate your face to develop strategies for applying fillers. We spoke to West Palm Beach dermatologist Kenneth R. Beer, MD, who has conducted numerous clinical trials with the various injectable products available on the market and serves as a mentor and trainer for other expert injectors, to get the latest information on injection techniques.
As we age, our faces tend to take on a triangular shape, with everything falling and accumulating in the lower third of the face. Young faces, however, are more heart-shaped, with a wider top and narrower bottom. By using thick fillers to make the middle and upper part of the face look younger, we can turn a triangle into a heart shape and give the illusion of youth. Do you know that strong jaw that all celebrities seem to have? Well, it's often achieved by filling along the jawline.
Another feature that makes beautiful people stand out is their always plump cheekbones that give a youthful touch to the face. Strategically placed fillers in this area can change the shape of your face without seeming exaggerated. Fillers such as Radiesse, Restylane, Juvederm, Sculptra, and Fat Injections are great for these areas.
Facial fillers
are fantastic for beautifying.Here we use fillers to enhance the cheeks, add volume to the lips, sculpt the jaw line to give more feminine or masculine features.However, placing the filler in the wrong position can inadvertently masculinize a female face. For example, men have a square jaw line, while women have a softer curved jaw line. If facial fillers are used to create sharp edges on a female face, you can make them look more masculine. Conversely, giving too much projection to a male cheek can make it look too feminine.While fillers aim to replace the volume loss associated with aging, the goal is to achieve a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
In a way, adding volume can correct bone characteristics and make you look “fatter”, but this is the desired effect in this case. The type of injectable doctors use really depends on what a person hopes to achieve.The cheeks are an area that tends to experience volume loss with age, especially for runners and those who participate in high-impact exercises. Expertly injected fillers can restore volume and give back the youthful appearance of the cheeks without the “face freezing” effects that can be associated with Botox. This creates a 26% younger looking and energized face without traditional facelift surgery, which is invasive and requires a significant recovery period.Cosmetic surgeons also use fillers to improve the appearance of facial features when clients prefer less invasive alternatives to traditional cosmetic surgery procedures.
The right combination of fillers is key because different dermal fillers work in different ways and on different parts of the face. With just a few strategically placed injections, dermal fillers have an almost magical ability to improve your appearance by restoring lost facial volume, smoothing wrinkles and plumping lips.In addition, facial fillers placed under the skin of the cheeks can give life to the skin of the entire lower part of the face to reduce its appearance for years. First of all, I'd like to talk about cosmetic injectables such as facial fillers and anti-wrinkle injections as they make the most noticeable change.While cosmetic fillers can be used to fill in those stubborn facial wrinkles, they have many other uses. Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected below the surface of the skin and are designed to smooth wrinkles and restore lost facial volume and skin tone that naturally decreases with age.During a non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure, a cosmetic surgeon injects a facial filler into strategic areas of the nose to visually reshape it.
In addition, fillers can be used to eradicate many signs of aging that are less evident to the eye than facial wrinkles.Depending on the type of look you want, doctors can inject fillers into your different facial areas and make you look rejuvenated by replacing volume loss.
