As the years tick by (including 2025!), you might notice drooping skin or fine lines settling around your features. Though this process is natural, it may not be welcome. Over time, these changes can distort your features, making you feel less like yourself.
With dermal filler in Freeport, we can help you look as young as you feel. At Medical Grade Aesthetics, we often recommend filler for patients who want to restore volume and minimize the appearance of static wrinkles.
Keep reading to find out how fillers can empower your anti-aging efforts, or take the first step in your rejuvenation journey with a consultation.
Understanding Why the Face Sags
With age, many of our systems’ usual functions slow down. This includes our skin’s production of essential proteins, like collagen and elastin. These fibers form the framework of our skin, giving it strength and flexibility. However, as they break down and new production declines, the skin loses elasticity, making it prone to folding and creasing.
As we get older, our natural hyaluronic acid levels dwindle. Hyaluronic acid helps our skin retain moisture, contributing to a fresh, dewy complexion. Reduced HA leads to drier skin, which is more likely to cause wrinkles.
We also lose volume in the face as fat pads around the eyes, temples, and cheeks naturally diminish or reposition elsewhere in the face, like in the jowls.
Using Filler to Treat Static Wrinkles and Volume Loss
Though we can’t stop the hands of time forever, dermal fillers help many patients fight signs of aging, such as volume loss, skin laxity, and static wrinkles.
Sculptra
This sculpting “filler” features poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biostimulating injectable that gradually restores your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin. Renewed protein development strengthens and firms the skin, so you can minimize the look of fine lines and experience lasting volume.
Sculptra is ideal for treating larger surfaces of the face because the formula disperses uniformly in the treatment area.
Radiesse
Similar to Sculptra, Radiesse is a biostimulating filler. However, Radiesse uses calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa) to trigger your skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. The formula also lifts the skin in the treatment area for immediate volume upon injection.
Your provider might recommend Radiesse if you struggle with unwanted creases around your mouth and nose.
Restylane
Restylane, another popular filler in Freeport, uses a trusted hyaluronic acid formula to define and refresh your features. Your provider may recommend Restylane if you hope to plump the lips, treat undereye hollows, or address volume loss and fine lines around the chin, cheeks, and nose.
RHA Collection
The RHA Collection of dermal fillers can also help you achieve more youthful contours, delivering a resilient hyaluronic acid formula similar to the skin’s natural HA. Like Restylane, this treatment is ideal for smile lines, sunken undereyes, hollow cheeks, and thinning lips.
This HA offers more subtle results, adapting to your facial movements, rather than inhibiting your expressions. As with any procedure, our goal is to make you look more like yourself, not an entirely different person.
