Dermal fillers add volume, fullness, and hydration to the skin. Starting around age 30, our
natural hyaluronic acid begins to decrease, leading to a loss of volume and the
appearance of wrinkles and folds. Hyaluronic acid is crucial for keeping our skin hydrated,
soft, and moisturized, working alongside collagen and elastin to maintain skin tightness
and volume. Dermal fillers replenish the skin with a synthetic version of hyaluronic acid,
making it hydrated and plump. They also promote the production of new collagen and
elastin, enhancing the skin's overall appearance and resilience.
At Aire, we offer Juvederm, Restylane, and RHA fillers, all made from hyaluronic acid
(HA). HA is a naturally occurring substance in the skin that plays a crucial role in
maintaining hydration and volume. It has the unique ability to hold up to 1,000 times its
weight in water, which helps keep the skin plump, smooth, and moisturized. As we age,
our natural production of HA decreases, leading to loss of volume, fine lines, and
wrinkles. By replenishing HA with dermal fillers, we can restore lost moisture, enhance
facial contours, and smooth out wrinkles, helping you achieve a youthful, rejuvenated
look.
What are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?
- Instant Results: Dermal fillers provide immediate volume and smoothness, with
results typically visible right after the treatment. - Restore Volume and Fullness: As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen and
elasticity, causing sagging or hollow areas. Fillers help restore volume to areas like
the cheeks, lips, and under-eye hollows, creating a more youthful appearance. - Smooth Out Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Fillers are effective in softening the
appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and folds, especially around the nose, mouth,
and chin. - Enhance Facial Contours: They can add definition and enhance facial contours,
like defining the jawline, chin, and cheekbones for a more sculpted look. - Natural-Looking Results: When applied by skilled professionals, fillers offer
subtle, natural-looking results, ensuring you look refreshed rather than overdone. - Non-Surgical and Minimally Invasive: Fillers provide a great alternative to
invasive surgical procedures, offering rejuvenation without the need for downtime
or recovery. - Long-Lasting but Temporary: Depending on the type of filler used, the results can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, allowing flexibility in adjusting your appearance over time.
- Customizable Treatments: Dermal fillers can be tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic goals, allowing for personalized enhancement.
