A Dermal Filler is an injectable chemical that is given just under the skin, says a Wirral dentist. In effect a Dermal Filler will iron out a wrinkle or crease in the skin, these have many causes and a dental problem is just one of those causes. It is a completely cosmetic procedure and has no medical value at all. It is not the same as Botox which freezes the muscles and stops the lines from forming in the first place, with this procedure it blows the skin out and evens the skin to fill, as such, the creases and wrinkles and makes them disappear. Hyaluronic Acid is produced naturally in the body to add volume to the tissue, especially in the facial area, as we age the body produces less of many hormones and acids, this is one such acid that we lack more in our mature years. The injections are high in the acid and simply plump out the area to do the job that natural can`t hack any more. The lips and eye area are the most popular, with cheeks and the tear trough also a popular place for injections. The good news is that everyone can have it, there are usually no allergy tests as the acid is naturally occurring and therefore the body won`t reject it. The results are instant and there is usually little swelling or any signs that a treatment has been done. It lasts around a year and is easily replenished safely, the body absorbs the acid over this period and the creases will gradually come back.
