Dermal fillers in London Ontario consist of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance produced by the body that when injected, hydrates and replaces lost volume.

As our skin becomes thinner with age, the fat layer underneath declines because our bodies produce less collagen and elastin as early as 25 years of age. With the loss of volume under the skin, the thinning skin loses support and begins to sag. When this happens, we begin to notice jowls - the sagging skin below jawline and chin, deep smile lines & wrinkles and dark under eye bags. Dermal fillers replace lost volume to support the skin to reduce the appearance of sagging skin and wrinkles restoring your smooth, youthful appearance.

Dermal fillers for the best lip injections in London Ontario also known as lip fillers are popular for all ages. Young adults influenced by celebrities and social media look to add volume and shape while others use dermal fillers in the lips to restore volume lost with age. An expert injector will use the right technique in applying dermal fillers for smoother, plumped or natural looking lips depending what your preference is.

Dermal fillers make it possible to have the benefits of facelift without the cost, risk and recovery time associated with surgery. With fillers applied to key areas of the face, the face will appear lifted, smoother and tighter. Fillers can also balance the face shape, fill scars and uneven skin. People with acne scars often choose fillers over lasers or peels to smooth over acne scars because the treatment is convenient, quick and non invasive.

You may be wondering, are dermal fillers better than Botox? The answer is that while they both treat wrinkles, each is effective for different areas of the face. Botox relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles in expressive areas of the face like the forehead and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers replace lost volume where deeper wrinkles like smile lines appear and can also be injected to lift and tighten skin to reduce sagging skin and jowls.

How long dermal fillers last? Typically, dermal fillers in London Ontario last from 6 to 12 months. The duration depends on the quality of product used and the individual’s metabolism. Faster metabolisms may break down filler faster so a denser product may be used to ensure your fillers are longer lasting.

There are different types of dermal filler brands and each brand usually offers dermal filler products designed for different purposes, usually with different densities. An expert injector will choose the best product and apply the right technique to ensure you get the results you need.
