Facial Fillers for Wrinkles in Costa Rica
As time goes by and we get older, our skin suffers changes as collagen synthesis begins to degrade and hydration is lost. This is why we leave you with information about facial fillers for wrinkles in Costa Rica and how to treat them to eliminate wrinkles.
What are facial fillers?
Facial fillers using hyaluronic acid are one of the most popular treatments in aesthetic medicine today, as they offer good results without the need to undergo surgery.
Facial fillers consist of injections of various materials that are introduced into the skin to erase wrinkles, fill depressions and improve the shape of the face, giving a more youthful appearance through minimally invasive procedures.
Although they cannot eliminate flaccidity, they add volume and provide immediate results with lower costs, risks and discomfort than conventional surgery and with a rapid recovery, which allows the patient to return to social and work life the day after the intervention.
In which areas are facial fillers are usually applied?
The most common injection sites are:
- The small vertical wrinkles between the nose and lips.
- The furrows joining the nose to the ends of the lips.
- The grooves between the lips and chin below the mouth (marionette lines)
- The glabellar region (between the eyebrows)
- Frontal wrinkles and periocular wrinkles (crow’s feet)
- Acne scars, the cheeks and neck.
- Lip contouring and lip augmentation.
Deep wrinkles and scars require repeated injections to achieve the desired results.
How do facial fillers work?
In Lamicq Dental Care we use hyaluronic acid for facial fillers. Hyaluronic acid has the ability to retain water, up to a thousand times its weight, it is the main responsible for skin hydration and is necessary for the production of collagen, which is the skeleton of our skin.
Hyaluronic acid filler is a gel that is applied by micro-injections directly into the skin and, in addition to replenishing the lost hyaluronic acid, it allows remodeling shapes and contours of the face and lips, and giving volume to the areas modified by the aging process.
Facial fillers are used to rejuvenate and revitalize the skin of a person’s face. Thus, through different types of infiltrations, it is possible to give more naturalness to the face while rejuvenating it thanks to the ability to replace lost volumes, highlight cheeks or cheekbones and end with wrinkles and furrows of the face.
What is the facial filler procedure like?
At Lamicq Dental Care, the treatment with hyaluronic acid is performed by our doctor and it will always be her who will perform the injections. Before starting the treatment, in order to make the treatment painless and as bearable as possible, anesthesia will be applied to the areas to be treated.
This first step is not painful either because, thanks to the knowledge of the maxillofacial anatomy of our specialists, the application is safe, simple and localized.
Hyaluronic acid is injected in small quantities into the skin using a needle or a microcannula. The number of injections and their depth will depend on the objective of the treatment and the area to be treated.
The treatment time may vary, depending on the amount of hyaluronic acid injected and the technique used.
