Dermal Fillers in New Fairfield, CT and Thornwood, NY

Over time, small amounts of fat in the face are lost. When enough facial volume is lost, it can cause the skin to droop which can result in the appearance of visible facial folds and wrinkles around various parts of the face. Facial volume loss can also cause certain areas like the cheeks or under eyes to appear sunken or hollowed which can give the face an even more aged and tired appearance.

Dermal fillers are able to instantly restore lost facial volume to the areas of the face they are injected into. Dermal fillers typically come in the form of thick and smooth gels that immediately fill in and lift the skin once injected. Dermal fillers also contain substances that can help to stimulate collagen production and help the skin retain moisture in order to provide long-lasting benefits and results.

How Dermal Fillers Work

The Juvederm and Restylane line of fillers are a soft, gel-like form of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally occurring in the body. When injected to areas of the face, neck, and body they can restore lost contour and volume that happens with aging. Because hyaluronic acid is a magnet for water, it also helps to hydrate and plump areas such as the lips.
