Dermal Fillers in India

As the age count increases, the face starts to lose subcutaneous adipose tissues and appear skinny. The facial muscles that lie underneath the skin's surface work and create apparent fine lines and wrinkles. Adding to this, the facial skin also stretches a bit resulting in loss of facial volume over time due to loss of collagen and elastin. Other factors also affect the facial skin such as heredity, sun exposure, and lifestyle modifications. All these changes in facial appearance make one look older than their actual age and deplete one’s self-esteem and confidence. But, the good news is that Dr. Parag Telang at Designer Bodyz, has a simple, affordable solution to correct cosmetic issues and regain the lost self-confidence with Dermal Fillers!

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are biological, or synthetic substances that are administered into the cutaneous (or skin) compartments to restore facial fullness and volume and/or smoothen fine lines, wrinkles, or other signs of aging. It is a minimally invasive approach that can help combat early signs of aging and even be a value-added part of facial rejuvenation surgery. But, it is a temporary solution (typically lasting for 6-12 months) for mild to moderate aging concerns. 

Dermal fillers can be of different types based on their nature, composition, or biodegradation time. These include quick resorbable fillers such as autologous fat, bovine collagen, and hyaluronic acid; slow resorbable fillers like Poly-L-Lactic acid, Calcium Hydroxyapatite, or Polyalkylimide and polyacrylamide gels; and non-resorbable/permanent fillers such as polymethylmethacrylate microspheres, silicone, and polytetrafluoroethylene. The most preferred filler injections are hyaluronic acid based filler, which is a natural gel-like substance that stimulates collagen and improves skin’s hydration after getting reabsorbed quickly by the body. At Designer Bodyz, an anti-aging clinic in Mumbai, India, the dermal fillers treatment is offered to both men and women who want a youthful look.

Prerequisites for Dermal Fillers Treatment

Before undergoing a dermal filler procedure, there is some preparation required on the patient part. Here are some of the instructions that one must follow to ensure that one is fully prepared:

  • ​Avoid intake of blood-thinning medications and supplements and also stop alcohol consumption one week beforehand.
  • Do not use topical products like anti-aging serums/creams, active ingredients for at least 2 days. 
  • Inform the healthcare provider if one has a record of Perioral Herpes to receive advice on antiviral therapy if needed prior to the treatment. 
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure and wear broad-spectrum sunscreens with a minimum SPF of 30 and above.
The Procedure of Dermal Filler

Facial Assessment and Mapping

The plastic surgeon first evaluates the facial condition including skin tone and type as well as examines the areas of the face to be injected. Next, strategic points are marked on the face which are the appropriate injection sites for the filler. Photographs may be taken of the treatment site so as to compare with the after results.

Cleansing and Numbing of the Site

An antibacterial agent is applied to cleanse the injection sites. A very cold device may be used to chill and soothe the skin and relieve any discomfort at the injection sites. Local anesthesia or an anesthetic ointment may be used to numb the skin and avoid pain. The injection fillers are usually easily tolerated.   

Injection

Within a few minutes, dermal fillers are administered per injection site. Next, the doctor massages the area so that the ingredients of fillers are spread out evenly. After performing the procedure, the result of the filler treatment is evaluated and additional filler is provided if required. The whole procedure may last for as short as 15 minutes or as long as an hour.

Clean Up and Recovery

Once the result of the dermal filler treatment is deemed satisfactory, any markings are cleansed off. The recovery time of fillers varies for every patient and also depends upon the time of filler injected. Following dermal filler treatment, the treated site would appear overfilled. Initially, it is normal for the patient to experience mild to severe bruising, temporary redness or numbness, the appearance of palpable lumps or hard areas at the site of injection, and hypersensitivity reaction. These side effects may improve within a few hours or a matter of days.
