Natural Dermal Fillers: Safe & Long Lasting!
Four Facts to Make You Comfortable with Dermal Fillers –
While most of us have a facial feature we would like to improve or enhance – such as thin lips, or creases around the mouth – many people are scared or skeptical of dermal fillers. At Prosperity Health in Bloomfield Hills, MI we understand. An injection into the face is not something to take lightly!
But, facial fillers have come a tremendously long-way since the over-inflated lips and “frozen faces” of the early 2000’s. Today’s generation of dermal fillers are exceedingly safe, and in many cases more natural than you may assume.
Bloomfield Hills physician Dr. Nisrath Hakim is a homeopathic doctor who takes her responsibility to offer comprehensive, evidence-based natural therapies very seriously. In this article, she discusses some surprising facts about dermal fillers, that may make you more comfortable considering facial injectables to look younger, or to get the attractive features you have always desired!
#1. Dermal Fillers Fact: Hyaluronic Acid is Natural
The facial fillers formulas we use at Prosperity Health in Bloomfield Hills, including Restylane and Belotero are made with hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally within the skin.
As a woman or man gets older, the levels of hyaluronic acid in their skin can diminish significantly. This is a primary cause of wrinkling and volume loss. Restylane, Belotero and certain other dermal fillers use a synthetic formulation of hyaluronic acid, that is almost identical to the natural substance found in the human body.
#2. Dermal Fillers Fact: Hyaluronic Acid Fillers Look & Feel Natural
Because hyaluronic acid dermal fillers replicate the substances naturally found within the skin, they both look and feel natural, when skillfully injected by Bloomfield Hills physician Dr. Nisrath Hakim.
Some older synthetic dermal fillers skilled left patients with unnatural features – such as stiff, hard “duck lips.” But newer dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid with a smaller “particle size” – making them softer, smoother and more natural looking.
At Prosperity Health in Bloomfield Hills, MI we offer subtle, natural-looking changes to your appearance with hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers. You will leave looking more attractive, refreshed and younger – but you will not look artificial or like you have “had work done.” And, these newer dermal filler formulas also leave skin and lips kissable soft.
#3. Dermal Fillers Fact: Fillers can Last a Year or Longer
One recent improvement in hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers is their longevity. Depending on the location of the injection, and formula of dermal filler used, results can last for a year or longer! This makes dermal fillers far more affordable than they used to be, since patients do not need to come in every 3 months for “touch ups.”
And, because hyaluronic acid dermal fillers also activate the skin’s natural production of collagen, the benefits of the dermal fillers will continue to offer long-lasting ant-aging results – even after the fillers have worn off!
#4. Dermal Fillers Fact: Facial Fillers Prevent New Wrinkles
Clinical studies have now also shown that beginning dermal fillers at a younger age may also have the long-term benefit of preventing new lines from forming! Skin care experts like Bloomfield Hills physician Dr. Nisrath Hakim have noticed that when patient’s start with small amounts of dermal fillers earlier on, it can prevent lines and wrinkles from forming.
This is because, as a wrinkled expression continues over time, the line becomes “etched in” – much like the crease in a piece of paper that is folded for a long time. But, dermal fillers prevent the skin from “creasing” in the first place – so that lines never become “etched in”.
