Filler
Filler is one of the effective ways to restore facial volume, fill in lines and wrinkles, and plump up certain facial features to make you look younger, and more attractive.
At Summer Clinic, we chose “Restylane” imported from Sweden and “Juvederm” quality and standardized Hyaluronic acid filler imported from USA.
What is filler?
Fillers (Dermal Fillers) injections are nonsurgical cosmetic procedures that inject Hyaluronic acid or Sodium Hyaluronic into your skin to restore lost volume back to your face and smooth lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is the most commonly used type of filler as it is a naturally occurring acid in human skin.
Looking older can be a difficult process for many people. If you have signs of aging, Hyaluronic acid filler can help ! It will replace the skin structure of your face with no risk and naturally degrade over time.
Hyaluronic acid is a form of crystal clear gel that can retain moisture, make your skin look plump, reduce wrinkles, and help restore lost volume on your face. Once injected, Hyaluronic acid will bind with water molecules until it swells up into gel and plumps the skin.
Moreover, if there is a feeling of dissatisfaction with the result after injecting fillers that are made from Hyaluronic acid, it can be dissolved immediately by Hyaluronidase.
