Dermal Fillers
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers can give you a more youthful appearance for a fraction of what a classical facelift costs. Most will fill lines and wrinkles in less than 30 minutes with results that can last from 6 months to up to 2 years.
Dermal fillers, unlike Xeomin® that ease the muscle below a wrinkle, fill the line/crease/area with one of several different substances. As a result, problem spots almost vanish.
Areas Dermal Fillers Can Treat
LIPS
Youthful lips that are plump and volumized lose elasticity and fullness over time, creating sagging or thinning lips. Whether aging has caused them to thin, or your lips have never had the volume you desire, you are not alone. Many people wish their lips were larger, more full. The lips are one of the most popular areas for dermal filler injections, that when performed correctly by a skillful injector, will plump the lips for a gentle, natural-looking result. Lip Augmentations are one of our specialties at Whisper Wood and one of the services we are highly known for.
NASOLABIAL FOLDS | SMILE LINES
For most of us, smile lines – also known as nasolabial folds – are nothing to smile about. These lines and creases run from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth, and are the result of the loss of facial volume and skin elasticity as we age. They can make you look older, tired, or unhappy – even though you feel youthful inside.
MARIONETTE LINES
Even if you have never heard of marionette lines, you probably know what they are. These lines that run straight downwards from the corners of the mouth can make you look unhappy. Marionette lines form as facial volume begins to deplete and deeper creases begin to form below the mouth.
VERTICAL LIP LINES | PUCKER LINES | SMOKER LINES
Time is working against your skin’s appearance. Every time you speak, eat, drink from a straw, smoke, kiss, or smile, your skin remembers and lines eventually begin to show on your face. The vertical lines above and below your lips can be difficult to hide with makeup and are often highlighted when a bright shade of lipstick bleeds into them.
CORNERS OF THE MOUTH
The corners of the mouth, also known as the oral commissures, can turn downward as you age and lose volume below the mouth. This downturned appearance of the mouth can make you look like you are frowning or even mad. In addition, volume loss in this area often leads to the formation or the deepening of already-formed marionette lines.
PRE-JOWL FOLD
A little known area of the face that can make a big impact on the way we look is the pre-jowl fold area, or the pre-jowl fold sulcus, which is the area on either side of our chin. Facial volume loss associated with the aging process results in sagging of the skin in other facial areas, and leaves the pre-jowl fold area hollow.
