Most dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring complex sugar in your body that helps provide volume, structure, elasticity and moisture to your skin. HA is lost with age and fillers are meant to replace volume to facial structures that have lost volume secondary to age and/or lifestyle. Adding volume to facial structures gives a more youthful-look to the face.
Upon placement, the HA filler attracts water from your body, resulting in a replenished volume and a naturally enhanced appearance. Additionally, the injection of HA filler contributes to increased skin moisture, as hyaluronic acid (HA) possesses the remarkable ability to retain water, up to 1,000 times its weight. Furthermore, the introduction of new HA prompts the body to boost collagen and elastin production, thereby enhancing the overall integrity and quality of the skin.
