Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours.
How do dermal fillers work?
Dermal fillers work by adding volume to areas with wrinkles, fine lines, or areas that have lost volume due to aging. They plump up the skin, smoothing it out for a more youthful appearance.
