Dermal fillers, Like Juvederm and Sculptra, are gel-like substances injected under the skin to create a fuller, smoother, more youthful appearance. They are also known as soft tissue fillers, injectable implants, or wrinkle fillers.

Dermal fillers are popular treatments used to reduce signs of aging, minimize scars and skin depressions, address fine lines and deep wrinkles, enhance facial features, and overall, gain a more youthful appearance.

As you age, your body starts to lose collagen. Collagen is an important substance that exists all over your body, including in your skin, muscles, bones and connective tissues. Decreased amounts of collagen in your skin causes skin laxity (loose) and loss of volume. Skin becomes thinner, loses its elasticity and starts to sag.

Injected just under the skin, dermal fillers are a type of nonsurgical cosmetic procedure that can counteract these signs of aging and restore volume in your face, plump up wrinkles and smooth lines.

This elective treatment usually takes less than half an hour, and recovery time is minimal. Results are seen right away and last months to years depending on the type of filler and the location.
