At Nuovo Clinic dermal fillers are one of the most popular non-surgical aesthetic treatments available today. The treatments with dermal fillers can be used to restore volume, to highlight facial features, to improve symmetry and to achieve a youthful look of the skin.
Understanding Different Dermal Filler Types
Modern dermal fillers are primarily made from a form of hyaluronic acid. The filler is then injected into the skin where it attracts and holds water, providing volume and hydrating the skin to give it a smooth natural look.
However, there are differences within the same class of dermal fillers. The main differences amongst the various fillers are the thickness, elasticity and lifting capacity of the product. The majority of products are more suited to certain areas of the face and therefore can be used for individual treatments.
Choosing the Right Filler for Lip Enhancement
There are various dermal fillers on the market that are especially designed for lip enhancement and can provide the perfect amount of volume and definition and feel very natural.
When choosing a filler for the lips, the best type of filler is one that is soft and malleable in order to allow for the natural movements of the lips. It should add volume and define the borders of the lips, and give them a healthy hydrated look.
Choosing Fillers for Cheek Enhancement
Cheek fillers are thicker gels, with good lifting properties. These are more usually used for deeper application in the cheeks, to support the structures that have lost volume with age. As such they can give great facial contour and definition, creating a more youthful appearance and helping to counteract sagging in the mid-face area.
A thick filler with great lifting ability is generally chosen for cheek enhancement. These fillers are able to provide long lasting support to the area, and allow for natural facial movement.
The Best Fillers for Jawline Contouring
Jawline Fillers are now one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments and are used on both men and women. This area of the face is very mobile, so strong structure fillers are needed to hold their shape in this area. The products used for jawline contouring are generally firmer than other facial fillers and are used to create strong lines and definition of the jaw.
Filler Choices for Chin Enhancement
For those with a weak or receding chin, facial fillers can not only provide great definition to this area but also provide a correction to any facial asymmetry that you may have. Chin fillers are generally more dense than lip fillers. This allows the product to have more lifting properties. All chin fillers are designed to be blended into the tissues of the chin.
A chin filler can provide subtle changes to the shape of your chin or even fill out a recessed chin to provide greater definition and more proportional features to your face.
Treating Fine Lines and Delicate Areas
Lines around the eyes are one of the most delicate areas on the face and require the lightest products to fill the deep creases and to treat dark circles. We only use the lightest and most delicate fillers to fill fine lines and superficial wrinkles. These lines can be very sensitive and it is very easy to create lumps and bumps with some fillers.
When using fillers for fine lines around the mouth, under the eyes and superficial lines on the skin the main aim is to fill these areas with fillers that have the same texture to the skin, therefore looking natural and enhancing the fine lines in a subtle way.
Why Personalised Treatment Planning Matters
As every face is different and contains a unique set of lines on your face, of different ages and also contains different structures and facial bone structures, an expertly experienced practitioner will create a plan of treatment in line with your features and that is the aim of the treatment in the first place, to enhance the features of your face and produce a more youthful appearance.
