Volume Loss
As we age, it is common to experience a decrease in facial volume, leading to a more hollow and aged appearance. Fortunately, advancements in cosmetic procedures offer effective solutions to combat volume loss and restore a youthful and rejuvenated look.
Causes of Facial Volume Loss
Ageing: As we grow older, the natural production of collagen and elastin in the skin decreases, leading to a loss of facial volume and elasticity. This process, combined with the effects of gravity, can result in sagging and a sunken appearance.
Fat and Bone Changes: Over time, the fat pads in our face may shift or diminish, causing volume depletion. Additionally, bone loss in the facial skeleton can contribute to a loss of structural support, exacerbating the appearance of volume loss.
Lifestyle and Environmental Factors: Certain lifestyle habits, such as smoking, excessive sun exposure, and poor nutrition, can accelerate the ageing process and contribute to facial volume loss.
Treatment Options with Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a popular and effective non-surgical treatment option for addressing facial volume loss. The injectable fillers we use are made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in the body. They are designed to add volume, restore contours, and diminish wrinkles, providing natural-looking results.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps retain moisture and provide structure to the skin. HA fillers are versatile and commonly used to address volume loss in different areas of the face, including the cheeks, lips, and under-eye hollows. They can also soften lines and wrinkles.
