Fillers are used by Charlotte, NC dermatologists to help fight signs of aging in patients.
Traditional fillers
Traditional fillers are used to replace lost fat in the mid to lower face. These reduce and eliminate wrinkles by filling the space before the wrinkles. Unfortunately, like most fillers, the results are not permanent, but you will see results right away. If you have wrinkles around the mouth or have hollowed cheeks, traditional fillers may be the option your doctor recommends for you.
Collagen stimulators
Collagen is what gives our faces their elasticity. But, as we age, collagen production slows down, leaving us with the development of wrinkles and fine lines. Collagen stimulators are a type of filler that is used to replace lost collagen and rebuild the underlying structure. Results may take some time to see as the skin repairs itself, but the appearance of your wrinkles will be reduced, giving you the wrinkle free skin you dream of.
Toxins
The thought of putting toxins in your face may seem scary. But, these aren’t your normal toxins. This type of filler is used to smooth lines and grooves, usually in the upper face. The injected toxin temporarily weakens or paralyzes the muscles, which eliminates the lines. It does take about three or four days for patients to see results and additional treatments will be needed to maintain results.
