How Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers Help You Look Younger

Beauty & Fashion Blog

One of the natural consequences of aging is the loss of volume in your face. When you lose volume in the middle of your face, or the cheek area, it causes your skin to sag and wrinkles will form. You'll also lose the youthful plumpness of your cheeks. One solution for this problem is to have dermal filler injections with hyaluronic acid. Here's some information on how it works.

The Hyaluronic Acid Fillers Add Volume

Hyaluronic acid is a gel that's injected under the surface of your skin. It can be used to add volume to the apple of your cheeks so they become plumper. With more volume in your cheeks, your face appears lifted so your skin is less saggy. This gives your skin a tighter appearance and it may even reduce some wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid can further reduce wrinkles when it is injected directly into the lines and grooves in your skin. This is often done in the grooves that run from your cheeks to your lips. Your lips can even benefit from hyaluronic acid injections. Lips can become thinner as you age and the shape of your face changes. By injecting a dermal filler, your lips will be plump and have a more youthful appearance. 

The Results Can Last Up To Two Years

One good thing about using a hyaluronic acid gel, is that you have a few options in the type of gel used so you can get the results you want. For instance, the effects of some hyaluronic acid fillers can last for as long as two years. This gives you the look you want with fewer visits to your cosmetic doctor's office. Other dermal fillers are combined with an anesthetic. This makes injections in sensitive areas more tolerable. However, you can also opt to have a local anesthetic applied on your skin so you won't feel pain from the needle during the injections. The number of injections you'll need depends on the amount of filler you receive and the area of your face you have treated.

The Side Effects Are Minimal

The results of hyaluronic acid injections can be like getting a facelift without the surgery. Dermal fillers certainly have a lower risk of side effects when compared with surgery. They also don't paralyze the muscles in your face like some other cosmetic injections, so your face maintains its normal movement and appearance. However, you might experience soreness and swelling after the injections. There could be some bumps your doctor or nurse will smooth out later with massage. You might also have some bruising from the injections, so you may want to schedule your treatments before a long weekend or vacation so you don't have to work if your face has some swelling or bruising after the treatments.

If you want to regain your youthful appearance, a dermal filler such as Juvederm that contains hyaluronic acid could be a good choice. It might spare you from surgery and make you look years younger.

Accessorizing Your Evening Gown

My name is Melinda Franklin, and I want to thank you for visiting my website. My husband Joseph is an executive in the firm where he works. This means we have three to five annual formal affairs to attend. I will be the first to admit that I’m not the most fashion savvy person. For years, I would find and wear what I thought was the perfect evening gown for each event, yet never felt quite as lovely as I thought I should. I would admire the other women and wonder why I didn’t feel as stunning as they looked. Then it finally dawned on me --it was my lack of accessories. The other women wore earrings and necklaces that completed their outfits. I haphazardly put on jewelry and accessories that I knew were mundane. I would like to share some accessorizing tips I’m using now.
