How Do Dermal Fillers Work?
Injectable treatments tend to all get lumped into the same category. Fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic, each work differently to address different aging concerns in different ways. When used in combination, they can work together effectively to create results that subtly mimic more invasive surgical procedures and yield impressive results.
Most fillers have an active ingredient called hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance found in the body that helps keep your skin plump and hydrated. Since aging skin loses its ability to retain moisture, hyaluronic acid-based fillers replenish it. Fillers restore volume too, giving skin a smoother, more youthful appearance.
