What are facial fillers?

They are an outpatient cosmetic technique performed using very fine needles to inject different biodegradable filler substances (in our case mostly hyaluronic acid) to correct the effects of aging, and to provide volume to certain areas of the face, providing immediate results, and also serving to naturally revitalize the skin.

These facial fillers seek to eliminate expression lines without the need for surgery .

How facial fillers work

At our dental clinic Casanova 25 we focus on correcting wrinkles or signs of aging in the lower third of the face, we try to project specific areas of the face, replenishing volume and revitalizing the skin. Facial fillers can be divided into the following:

  • Facial fillers intended to fill out perioral wrinkles, known as barcodes, and lip corners
  • Facial fillers intended to fill the nasolabial folds or the so-called parenthesis wrinkles
  • Fillers intended to fill so-called marionette lines
  • Fillers intended to achieve increased volume in the chin area
  • Facial fillers intended to achieve an increase in volume of the lips and their contouring

Facial fillers consist of injecting hyaluronic acid into the dermis. Facial fillers help to rejuvenate facial skin giving it a natural and healthy appearance, as they seek to replace the hyaluronic acid lost from the skin.

Facial filler technique

Facial fillers involve injecting the chosen product (depending on the area to be treated) using a very fine beveled needle. The injections are repeated in the areas to be treated and to a specific depth.

This is a treatment that in Casanova 25 dental clinic is carried out by our specialists with local anesthesia applied to the area to be treated. Let’s not forget that we are all dentists and we have expertise in the area to be treated as well as in the local anesthetic techniques to be performed. We are therefore able to perform this treatment in a completely painless way.

The sessions usually last between 20 and 40 minutes, and the results last around 12-18 months.

SUBSTANCE APPLIED FOR FACIAL FILLINGS

It is hyaluronic acid, a substance produced naturally by our body, particularly in the skin. We work with different types here at the Casanova 25 dental clinic, such as juvederm, perlene, restylane and others, which in the hands of our specialists Dr. Hernández and Dr. Sierra enable us to obtain surprising results within a short period of time.

Post-operative effects of facial fillers

In reality, these post-operative effects of facial fillers are very few and far between:

  • Slight swelling of the areas treated.
  • Occasional appearance of small bruises or redness in the treated areas.

Hyaluronic acid can sometimes create small bumps or product surplus in certain areas which should disappear with a massage of the treated area and, should this not be the case, there is a product called hyaluronidase that can eliminate such excesses of product and this would be applied in the clinic by our specialists.
