Filler Injection: An Aesthetic Treatment to Add Volume and Reduce Wrinkles

Filler injection is an effective aesthetic treatment method used to add volume to the skin and reduce wrinkles. It is particularly preferred for treating facial lines, volume loss, and sagging.

How is it Done? 

Filler injection is performed by injecting natural or synthetic substances, such as hyaluronic acid, into the skin. During these injections, a slight sting may be felt, but it is generally tolerable. Temporary swelling or redness may occur after the procedure, but these conditions typically resolve on their own over time.

Duration of Effect and Care Recommendations 

The effect of the filler injection is usually visible immediately and becomes more pronounced within a few days. After the procedure, it is recommended to apply light pressure to the injection sites for a few hours. Additionally, gently massaging the injected areas and protecting them from sunlight is important.

Important Warnings

• Aspirin or blood-thinning medications should not be taken before filler injections.
• Extreme hot or cold weather conditions should be avoided after the treatment.
• Filler injections are not recommended for individuals at risk of allergic reactions.

Uses of Fillers:

• Filling in nasolabial folds on the face
• Increasing or defining lip volume
• Reducing dark circles and lines around the eyes
• Addressing volume loss on the backs of hands or the neck
• Filling in depressions in the cheeks

Procedure Duration 

Filler injections typically take 15-30 minutes, including the application of a local anesthetic cream.

Although filler injection is a reliable and effective treatment option, it should be carefully considered before consulting any health professional. An expert professional can determine the most suitable treatment plan for you and perform the procedure safely.
