Why patients in Frederick may consider dermal filler treatment
Fine lines and wrinkles can make patients look and feel older than they really are. After the age of thirty, the body gradually loses its natural store of collagen, which reduces volume to the skin and reduces skin laxity. At this point, many patients begin to ask their dermatologist in Frederick about ways to enhance their appearance using non-invasive techniques. The most popular option is dermal filler treatment.
What is a dermal filler?
It is an injectable that is utilized to add volume directly into fine lines, wrinkles, and folds on the face to immediately turn back the hands of time. Many of them are formulated with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the human body that attracts water molecules. When injected into imperfections of the skin, patients can revitalize their appearance quickly and easily. Fillers can also stimulate new collagen to form in the skin, prolonging the effect of the treatment. Dr. Ron Prussick is experienced in providing precise injections for optimum results.
Is dermal filler treatment safe?
Yes! The ingredients in dermal fillers are naturally occurring in the body and therefore do not cause allergic reactions. Patients may experience minor side effects for a day or two following their treatment including redness and minor bruising at the injection site. However, this is minor and goes away quickly.
