FACIAL VOLUME LOSS
Heredity and the aging process are the foremost causes of facial volume loss. However, certain medications as well as emotional stress, lifestyle factors, numerous traumas, and extreme dieting may also play a part in facial volume loss. Often accompanied by the loss of blood vessels, fat layers and collagen. Extrinsic factors such as smoking, prolonged sun exposure, and severe illness also contribute to a general loss of facial volume. As can prolonged stress.
WHAT DOES VOLUME LOSS LOOK LIKE?
As our facial volume decreases, the skin develops lines and wrinkles due to collagen and facial fat depletion. There is a hallowing around the eye sockets along with sunken temples, flattened cheeks, and loose skin around the jawline, better known as jowls. Fine lines appear on the lips and around the nose. Nasolabial folds form around the corners of the nose and mouth and oral commissures develop just beneath the corner of the mouth. The skin appears drier, thinner, and less vibrant (Walder, 2013).
FACIAL VOLUME LOSS SOLUTIONS?
Dermal fillers are widely recognised as one of the best ways to improve the shape of your face without surgery. Dermal fillers consist of a visco-elastic gel. Although there are a variety of different hyaluronic dermal fillers on the market, we prefer semi-permanent fillers as they offer a natural look allowing you to enhance your true beauty.
HOW DO THE FILLERS WORK?
Dermal filler gel is injected into the problem area to reduce the wrinkle depth. Many of our clients enjoy spectacular results from dermal filler treatment in areas such as the cheeks, under the eyes, brows, corners of mouth and around the nose. Lip enhancement is also very popular, providing full, plump lips and a more youthful appearance.
BENEFITS OF FILLERS
Dermal fillers assist in treating deep wrinkles, lines, indentations, scars and areas of the face that require more volume. Creating a more youthful fullness, this treatment effectively lifts sagging skin.
