When Should You Opt for Dermal Fillers in San Diego?

Several patients opt for dermal fillers San Diego since the city is home to some of the best skincare clinics in the State. San Diego has a GDP of $222.28 Billion. The city is renowned for its advanced medical facilities and healthy economic indicators. Dermal fillers are an excellent way to fight visible signs of aging like wrinkles and lines.

Since dermal filler treatments involve a series of non-invasive procedures, there is minimal risk involved and meager side effects. While dermal fillers are relatively less costly than other invasive cosmetic surgical procedures, they are not the solution for all skin issues.

What are Dermal Fillers?

There are several broad categories of derma fillers, each with its unique applications and properties. You can choose between calcium-based dermal fillers, blood-based dermal fillers, hyaluronic acid, and Poly-L-Lactic acid. Dermal fillers or soft tissue fillers are semi-liquid compounds injected into the skin to make skin look younger, fuller, and smoother.

Primarily used in the aesthetics field, dermal fillers cannot treat muscular issues or skin conditions. You may also want to note that dermal fillers don’t help cure aging-related issues or skin conditions.

Unlike botox, dermal fillers don’t block muscle activity. They are implants that doctors can inject into the patient’s skin. Modern medical experts are also exploring more elements like stem cells and other permanent injectables in dermal filler treatments.

Who Should Get Dermal Fillers?

According to FDA regulations, only people who are older than 22 can opt for dermal fillers. FDA experts also recommend postponing dermal filler treatments if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding.

Around 2.8 million patients in the US get fillers every year for several reasons. Stats show that over 60% of people who get fillers are over 35 years old. You can consider dermal fillers in San Diego if you are dealing with any of the following issues.

Fine Lines as a Result of Aging

Fine lines are most prominently visible around the nose and mouth areas. As you age, these lines become more visible. Fillers can be used to smoothen these lines and give the skin a much smoother appearance. Doctors usually use absorbable fillers for filling lines and marks on the face.

Wrinkles

Wrinkles are perhaps the most famous aging sign. Wrinkles occur as a result of loss of facial volume. They can be caused by a range of reasons like aging, sun exposure, and even smoking. They involve the creasing and formation of crevices in the skin. Fillers can be used to treat mild levels to moderately high levels of wrinkling.

Restoration of Volume in Cheeks and Lips

Your cheeks and lips start looking less smooth as you age. Your cheek muscles may even start drooping or sagging. If you start identifying signs that suggest a loss in facial volume, you should contact your cosmetic surgeon and start treatment at the earliest.

Dermal fillers cannot be used to treat advanced issues. Actors and models use regular dermal filler treatments to remodel their lips and cheeks.

Find a Certified Doctor

Reports suggest that dermal fillers are the second most used cosmetic procedure in San Diego city. The cost of dermal filler treatment in San Diego could range anywhere between $250 and $1000.

Even though dermal filler treatments are non-invasive and almost risk-free, it’s critical to choose a reputed clinic with certified specialists for dermal filler treatment in San Diego.
