What are the benefits of dermal fillers?
Dr. Ikram Kureshi is skilled in the application of hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) fillers. Hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, can temporarily fill wrinkles and lines, and augment thin lips. Calcium hydroxylapatite, a mineral found in bones and teeth, is perfect for treating deeper wrinkles and providing volume to the cheeks and jawline. Meanwhile, PLLA is a synthetic material that stimulates the body’s collagen production, leading to a more natural-looking and longer-lasting result.
As a part of our comprehensive treatment options, we provide a variety of dermal fillers, each with unique characteristics and applications:
● Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: With brands like Juvederm, Restylane, and Belotero, hyaluronic acid fillers are a safe and effective option for most patients looking to fill in fine lines and wrinkles or add volume to areas like the lips and cheeks.
● Calcium Hydroxylapatite Fillers: Radiesse fillers are perfect for those seeking a fuller look in areas such as cheeks and jawline or wish to treat deeper wrinkles and folds due to its thicker consistency and ability to promote collagen production.
● Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Fillers: Bellafill treatments are a semi-permanent filler option designed to provide long-lasting results while treating medium to deep wrinkles, folds, and furrows, including nasolabial folds.
● Collagen Fillers: These fillers are suitable for treating fine lines, wrinkles, and scarring, with results lasting for 3-6 months.
● Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) Fillers: Sculptra treatments are primarily used to treat deep facial wrinkles and to improve facial volume loss due to aging.
At Kureshi Med Spa, we understand that each patient’s needs and goals are unique. Therefore, we encourage a consultation with our qualified healthcare providers to discuss your options and determine the best treatment for you.
One of the most common areas treated with fillers is the cheeks. Aging can cause cheeks to lose volume and cause sagging, but dermal fillers can restore this lost volume, enhancing the appearance of your cheekbones for a more youthful look.
We also use dermal fillers to enhance the lips and give a subtle increase in volume, a more dramatic change, or to define the shape, our experienced practitioners can tailor these fillers to meet your specific needs. They can also smooth out vertical lip lines and wrinkles around the mouth that often develop as we age.
Dermal fillers are also highly effective around the mouth and nose. They can lessen the appearance of nasolabial folds, also known as “laugh lines,” and marionette lines, which run from the corners of the mouth down to the chin, creating a more youthful look.
The area under the eyes also known as the tear troughs, can also be treated, and the temples with dermal fillers. This reduces the appearance of dark circles, hollows, and under-eye bags, and restore volume to sunken temples, giving you a fresher, more rested look.
If you want to enhance your chin and jawline, our practitioners can use dermal fillers to augment the chin’s projection, improve symmetry, and sharpen the jawline, creating a more defined or balanced facial profile.
If you’re concerned about the appearance of your forehead, dermal fillers can soften wrinkles and creases, resulting in a smoother appearance. We also offer non-surgical rhinoplasty using dermal fillers, which can help to smooth out bumps or alter the shape of the nose without invasive surgery.
The type of dermal filler used is largely dependent on your specific needs and desired outcomes. Hyaluronic acid fillers, for example, are often used to treat areas such as the lips and cheeks and can last from six months to a year. For deeper facial lines and wrinkles, we often recommend Poly-L-lactic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite fillers, which can last up to two years.
The skill and technique of Dr. Kureshi at Kureshi Med Spa plays a significant role in the longevity of the dermal fillers. The depth and accuracy of the injection influence the filler’s spread and distribution, thereby impacting its duration. It’s also important to note that fillers applied to areas with more movement like the mouth may not last as long as those applied to less mobile areas such as the cheeks.
The duration of your dermal fillers can also be influenced by individual factors such as your metabolic rate, age, and skin condition. For instance, those with faster metabolic rates might see their results diminish more quickly, as their bodies break down the filler material at a quicker pace. Older skin with reduced collagen and elastin may require more frequent treatments.
Dermal fillers immediately improve signs of aging. They not only fill in lines and wrinkles, but also stimulate collagen production, enhancing the firmness and youthful appearance of your skin over time.
In addition to reducing signs of aging, our dermal fillers can also help diminish the appearance of scars and blemishes. Whether they’re from acne, surgery, or injuries, our fillers elevate the surrounding tissue, resulting in a smoother, more even skin surface.
Beyond restoring lost volume, dermal fillers can also enhance certain features of your face. They can add volume and shape to your lips, creating a fuller, more pouty appearance, and they can add definition to your cheeks, providing a balanced profile.
Some of the dermal fillers we use contain hyaluronic acid. These fillers not only plump your skin, but also hydrate it, improving elasticity and reducing dryness.
Dermal fillers provide a rejuvenated look without the risks and complications associated with surgery. Plus, their effects are relatively long-lasting, often remaining for six months to a year or sometimes even longer, making them a cost-effective choice for long-term results.
In conclusion, dermal fillers are more than just a cosmetic enhancement. They are a non-invasive, safe, and effective way to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, reduce scars and blemishes, enhance facial features, and improve skin hydration and elasticity. All these benefits come with minimal downtime and long-lasting effects, making dermal fillers an attractive option for those seeking aesthetic improvement at our med spa
