Dermal fillers are a very popular anti-aging method. They are a plastic surgery method that fills the face to improve facial contours and enhance facial beauty. Dermal injection fillers can directly increase the volume or capacity of tissues through their own volume and supporting force; they can also indirectly achieve tissue volume expansion effects by stimulating collagen regeneration and vascular regeneration in surrounding normal tissues. With the development of medical cosmetology, the extensive application and development of medical biomaterials have followed. At present, there are many types of dermal injection fillers, which are divided into degradable fillers and non-degradable fillers according to their biodegradable properties. Degradable fillers are roughly divided into short-acting fillers and long-acting fillers according to the relative comparison of the maintenance time of the cosmetic effect.
Injectable fillers, also known simply as dermal fillers, are substances that are injected into the skin to fill in areas of lost volume and smoothness. These substances help to replenish lost facial volume, smooth lines, fine lines, and wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. There are several types of fillers, including those made with hyaluronic acid (a substance naturally found in the skin), calcium hydroxyapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, and polymethylmethacrylate microspheres. Each type has specific properties and uses.
Currently, the main types of dermal fillers include hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, calcium hydroxyapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), autologous fat injection (fat grafting), synthetic polymers and hybrid fillers. Each dermal filler has unique properties and benefits that suit different cosmetic goals and patient needs.
