Dermal Fillers can improve the appearance of wrinkles and restore facial contours, for a more youthful and natural appearance. Dr Meyer is renowned for her skilled approach with dermal fillers. She assesses each patient’s face to create a treatment that is effective but natural. By using tiny enhancements designed to balance and showcase the beauty of a person’s natural features, Dr Meyer is able to achieve subtle yet impactful results.
Dermal fillers are an injectable made from Hyaluronic Acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body and that helps to hydrate the skin and add volume. As we age, our natural stores of hyaluronic acid and collagen begin to deplete. Our faces become more prone to a loss of volume, particularly around the cheeks, eyes, mouth, and jaw line that can lead to deep, static wrinkles. Cheeks may also appear hollow and drawn, losing the plumpness and radiance associated with younger skin.
Marionette lines are creases or folds that run vertically from the corners of the mouth down to the chin. The lines are a common result of the natural ageing process and form as facial volume begins to deplete and deeper creases begin to form below the mouth.
They can have a negative impact on the face because they create a shadow between the chin and cheek creating the look of a drooping jowl. Plus, they make it appear as if a person is frowning or scowling even when they are happy.
Dermal fillers can restore the hyaluronic acid in the soft tissues to give back a smooth, youthful appearance. They are particularly effective at smoothing deep lines around the mouth or nose and restoring plumpness to the cheek area and lips.
