Wrinkles around the nose and mouth can begin to form as early as your 20s and 30s. This is due to the loss of volume in the face and the depletion of natural substances found in our body, such as collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. Dermal fillers help replenish this lost volume and smooth wrinkles.
Treatment is quick, easy, and requires no downtime. It's no wonder dermal fillers are one of the anti-aging treatments most popular on the market today!

Dermal fillers, also known as injectable fillers, are soft tissue injections that are primarily used to help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Additionally, they can be used to add youthful volume and contour to the face, most often on the lips and cheeks.
The most popular dermal filler is hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found throughout the body's connective tissue. Glycosaminoglycans are simply long, unbranched carbohydrates, or sugars, called polysaccharides.
HA is the main component of what gives skin its structure and is responsible for its smooth and hydrated appearance. With the current trend around anti-aging treatments, hyaluronic acid is undoubtedly one of the kings of aesthetics (hand in hand with the treatments to treat wrinkles of the upper third of the face).
Hyaluronic Acid has multiple benefits on our skin. It plays a critical role in the wound healing process and diminishes as we age, making us more susceptible to sagging and wrinkles.
What are the benefits of hyaluronic acid?
Why is hyaluronic acid so magical? HA can bind up to 1000 times its weight in water. In other words, it works as a moisturizer and locks in water molecules on the surface of the skin to keep it nice and hydrated. Hyaluronic Acid has multiple aesthetic benefits among which are:
- Anti-aging effect.
- Moisturizing.
- Wound healing.
- Anti wrinkle.
- Increases skin elasticity.
- It can treat eczema.
- It can treat facial redness.
How do hyaluronic acid fillers work?
Unlike neuromodulators (neurotoxins), hyaluronic acid fillers do not relax facial muscles, instead reducing wrinkles by providing support under the skin. This support is achieved through a two-pronged approach.
- First, these gel fillers reduce wrinkles by providing immediate volume under the skin.
- The hyaluronic acid in these fillers then draws moisture to the treatment site, helping to maintain volume for longer.
Because hyaluronic acid is naturally present in the human body, the chances of an adverse effect as a reaction are quite low.
