Everyone’s skin ages at a different rate, as there are several factors that cause our skin to age.

The causes of aging for our skin can be separated into two buckets – intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The intrinsic factors are the internal things that we can’t control such as our genetic makeup and physiological decline.

Extrinsic factors are the external things that we have more control over that our skin is exposed to, and include smoking, diet, sleep, sun exposure, stress and lifestyle factors. Aging skin can be the result of many different factors. Some factors point to genetics while other external factors point to prolonged sun exposure, smoking, exposure to pollution and lack of sleep.

We often forget that our skin is our largest living organ and responds or reacts to everything we put into our bodies or interacts with the skin’s surface. While we can control some of the factors of aging skin, unfortunately we are not able to control all of them.

There are several different treatments and procedures available on the market today to help minimize and reverse some of the signs of aging where we aren’t able to control or prevent our skin from looking older.

Among the many options available for anti-aging treatments and procedures, one of the most popular are dermal fillers and injections.

There are many different types of dermal filler injections available to people who are interested, and it is recommended that prospective patients discuss their options with a qualified practitioner, such as the team at Solas Rejuvenation + Wellness, prior to starting any treatments. This will ensure that you are getting the most appropriate treatment for your unique case that will provide you with the best end results.

Your dermatologist can walk you through all of the different anti-aging treatment options, including the different types of dermal filler injections. Thanks to amazing advancements in surgical and non-surgical procedures, you no longer have to accept the aspects of your appearance that you aren’t a fan of.

Dermal fillers are nonsurgical injections that give you quick and subtle outcomes. Candidates for dermal fillers and other injectables are usually in their mid-to-late thirties with more prominent signs of aging, which includes fine to deep lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers can often be used to also correct minor facial irregularities.

Dermal filler injection candidates are typically patients who are in good physical health, don’t smoke, have committed to maintaining their skin health and are realistic about their goals for their appearance.

Dermal fillers can perform a number of jobs, depending on what type of filler is injected into the skin and where it has been injected.

Many fillers have been designed to create a specific end result, focusing on a certain part of the face. Dermal fillers are injections designed to work like hyaluronic acid – a substance that helps to fill in the skin that is naturally found in the body. The primary functions of dermal fillers and injections are to add lost volume to different areas of the face such as the cheek area, lips, under eye area, nasolabial area and the area to the side of the mouth.

This will help narrow down the many options available on the market, and also ensure that when choosing a treatment, you are getting the dermal filler that is going to provide you with the best end results based on what your expected outcome is.

Dermal fillers can be used to restore fullness and volume to the face, as well as smooth out and minimize the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Specially formulated fillers are available to alleviate common signs of facial aging and improve the overall appearance of the face, including:

– Add plumpness to thin lips
– Add volume to shallow contours
– Minimize the appearance of creases and wrinkles
– Minimize the appearance of recessed scars
– Decrease under eye shadows

Dermal fillers can be used on their own to help minimize the early signs of aging or can be used in conjunction with other anti-aging treatments, including surgery.

Injectables are what they sound like – solutions that are injected into the body. Injectables are often chemical substances injected into the skin with a needle to support muscles or plump up the overall look of the skin, this often decreases the look of wrinkles and fine lines!

Dermal filler injections are specially formulated solutions that are injected under the surface of the facial skin to fight the signs of aging and help the patient appear younger and more youthful.

The injectables are injected using a very fine needle to reduce the chances of leaving a mark on the face and allow for precise injection of the solutions in the targeted areas.

The injectable market has expanded exponentially in recent years, with a wide variety of dermal fillers available for the treatment of many common signs of aging.
