Facial fillers are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure used to add volume to different areas of the face, such as the cheeks, lips, chin, and under-eye hollows. They are commonly used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging.
The most common type of facial filler is hyaluronic acid fillers. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body that helps maintain the skin’s hydration and elasticity. These fillers are injected into the targeted area using a fine needle and/or cannula and can last from 6-12 months or longer, depending on the type of filler and the individual’s body metabolism.
