Why Dermal Fillers?

Aging has noticeable effects on the appearance and texture of our skin, but the majority of these changes are rooted in diminishing collagen production with the years — which results in volume loss and subsequent skin imperfections.

Without the support of collagen in the subdermal layers of facial skin, it is much easier for wrinkles, fine lines, folds, and creases to take shape and become noticeable. Loss of volume also leads to sunken contours and thinner skin that is susceptible to sagging with age. Areas of the face most affected by volume loss include around the nose, mouth, cheeks, lips, and brow. Volume loss also depletes the barrier between facial muscles and the skin’s surface, making muscle movements more apparent in the form of crow’s feet and furrows. Our Boca Raton dermal fillers may be an ideal solution for your cosmetic goals wherever volume loss is concerned. By “filling” thinning skin, this treatment gives skin a fuller appearance while preventing signs of aging and the natural formation of undesirable features, such as lines and wrinkles.

How Do Dermal Fillers Work?


Dermal fillers involve injecting a naturally occurring or biocompatible substance into target locations where volume depletion is visible or prone to signs of aging over time. As dermal fillers are injected, they bind with water molecules in the skin to hydrate the target site, causing the skin to become plumper, suppler, and returning volume to trouble areas. Dermal fillers create a “pushing” effect from beneath sunken skin up to its surface, which helps smooth out lines and creases while making skin appear fuller and more youthful. Select dermal filler products can even enhance the body’s natural production of collagen and offer long-lasting cosmetic benefits on top of immediate skin restoration.
