Dermal fillers are non –surgical, temporary alternatives to cosmetic surgery
Unlike anti wrinkle injections which reduces the appearance and development of wrinkles by paralysing small facial muscles, dermal fillers simply plump out and fill in wrinkles, without affecting facial movement
HOW DO DERMAL FILLERS WORK?
Fillers are designed to instantly add volume to the dermis layer of the skin
What is the dermis layer? The dermis layer lies between the surface layer of the skin (epidermis) and the fatty layer beneath (hypodermis) It holds the blood vessels, sweat glands, hair follicles and everything else the skin needs to function
