As we age, we lose volume in our face. After the age of 35, we lose about a teaspoon of collagen every year. Our bone structure also losses mass over time, resulting in less tissue support. All of these changes lead to flatness of cheeks, hollowness of eyes, loss of lip volume, etc. Time related loss of collagen also results in etched lines, ie “accordion lines” of cheeks.
Dermal fillers help replenish loss volume and fill in lines. It is important to keep in mind the “aesthetic balance” of the face when replacing volume and that every face is absolutely unique with different anatomy and genetics. At WassermanUlitsky Dermatology, we will help you make changes that bring you closer to aesthetic balance. All injections are performed by Board Certified Providers.
