Dermal Fillers: Pre-treatment Instructions
There are numerous cosmetic procedures people undergo to improve their appearance. One option people may choose is getting Dermal Fillers at Ästhetik Rx in Bowmanville. Dermal fillers are widely available. At Ästhetik Rx we exclusively use Teosyal dermal fillers.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable chemicals. They can be used to fill out wrinkles, frown lines, and laugh lines. They can also be used for contouring of the face and to enhance facial symmetry.
Dermal fillers are made of various chemicals. Each type has different purposes and consistencies. They can hydrate the skin, plump the skin, and encourage collagen production.
Depending on your needs, you and your technician will go over the options to see what will work best. It's possible they may suggest a combination of fillers for different areas of the face.
