Fillers are a wonderful anti-aging treatment that can help patients get their youthful appearance back.
Fillers are a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment that adds volume, changes facial contours, and fills in wrinkles. This helps to give the skin a more youthful look. Fillers can be used on the face, neck, hands, and even feet.
There are three main types of dermal fillers:
Temporary Dermal Fillers:
Collagen-based fillers: Collagen is a naturally occurring substance that adds strength and structure to skin.
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers: Like collagen, hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring material and is mainly used to increase volume and fullness in the skin. They help to restore the natural glow and beauty and take good care of hollows and fine lines. Hyaluronic acid fillers are one of the safest fillers available today with minimal to no side effects.
Calcium hydroxylapatite-based fillers: Calcium hydroxylapatite is denser and heavier than hyaluronic acid. This filler is injected deep under the skin and doesn’t usually cause an immune or allergic response because the material is usually present in bones.
Semi-Permanent Dermal Fillers: Longer-lasting dermal fillers, on the other hand, are made with heavier substances such as a biodegradable synthetic substance called poly-L-lactate. These types of soft tissues fillers are used to temporarily smooth out deep facial lines. They offer semi-permanent effects.
Permanent Dermal Fillers: Permanent fillers are usually made from polymethylmethacrylate acid (PMMA) which are microscopic spheres that are not absorbed by your body. It also contains collagen and is recommended for thicker skin areas such as the naso-labial folds.
The type of filler that a person needs greatly depends on the analysis and diagnosis of their skin type, texture, and condition.
You will be consulted about the type of filler to be used, and any other details when you visit Dr. Vashisht Dikshit for a dermal fillers consultation. You will be asked to sign a consent form before starting treatment. Before starting the treatment, Dr. Vashisht Dikshit will ask you to share everything about your medical history.
It’s important to tell Dr. Vashisht Dikshit about any allergies you may have before the procedure. Some pictures may be taken in order to check the results after the procedure.
The procedure for the administration of fillers involves the marking of the sites where fillers are to be injected and cleansing the area for the administration of the same.
Anesthesia is not necessary for the administration of fillers. Some fillers contain a local anesthetic like lidocaine for enhanced comfort during injection. Topical anesthetics may also be used in some cases.
The needles used for the dermal filler injections are thin and short, so the pain is minimal.
Extreme care is taken to inject fillers properly so as not to cause any damage to the underlying structures and to prevent any nerve injury.
The amount of injections greatly depends on the facial structure and the wrinkles that need to be removed. It takes anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes to complete the procedure.
The cost of the treatment may vary depending on which type, quality, and/or brand of dermal filler is required for the treatment. The cost also depends upon the number of injections required, the number of sessions needed for your unique needs, and touch-ups. For example, lip filler costs in Mumbai will be less expensive than the cost of multiple facial fillers.
During the consultation, Dr. Vashisht Dikshit will explain the cost of the treatment for your case, including all contributing factors.
