What is Cutaneous Fillers ?

Cutaneous fillers, also known as dermal fillers, are injectable treatments designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours for a youthful, refreshed appearance. These fillers are composed of substances like hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, or poly-L-lactic acid, all of which are safe and FDA-approved for aesthetic use.
As we age, our skin loses collagen, elastin, and natural hydration, leading to sagging, wrinkles, and hollow areas. Cutaneous fillers work by replenishing lost volume beneath the skin, filling in wrinkles and folds, and stimulating collagen production in some cases, thus improving skin texture and firmness.

Common Areas Treated with Fillers

Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines) – Smooths deep lines from the nose to mouth corners.
Marionette Lines – Reduces lines running from mouth corners downwards.
Lips – Adds volume, shape, and definition for natural-looking plump lips.
Cheeks – Restores cheek volume for a lifted, youthful contour.
Under-Eye Hollows (Tear Troughs) – Reduces tired or sunken eye appearance.
Jawline and Chin – Enhances definition and facial harmony.
Hands – Rejuvenates hands by restoring volume and reducing visible veins or tendons.
