Dermal fillers are non-surgical injectables designed to restore volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours using substances like hyaluronic acid (HA). A key feature of HA fillers is cross-linking, a process that stabilizes the HA molecules to create a gel-like structure that can retain volume and last longer within the skin. This cross-linking process affects the filler’s thickness, longevity, and suitability for different treatment areas—ranging from fine lines to deep volume restoration.
There are also other types of fillers, such as those with collagen-stimulating properties, that gradually improve the skin’s texture and elasticity.
Dermal fillers can be categorized based on their volumizing or biostimulatory effects:
Volumizing Fillers: Provide an instant plumping effect, primarily using HA-based products. They focus on immediate enhancement of facial volume and structure. Most volumizing fillers are made of hyaluronic acid (HA).
Biostimulatory Fillers: Gradually improve skin by stimulating collagen production. Their effects appear over time, and they offer more prolonged changes in skin quality and firmness.
Choosing between volumizing or biostimulatory fillers depends on the patient’s goals, such as achieving instant volume or promoting long-term skin rejuvenation and structural enhancement.
