Your skin is made of layers. Between those layers is a clear, jelly-like substance called hyaluronic acid. As you grow older, the amount of hyaluronic acid diminishes, and your skin can cave, causing a wrinkle along the line. Highly trained physicians at Sibia Eye Institue use dermal fillers such as Juvederm^®, Restylane^® and Perlane^® to fill in and smooth out both fine and deep wrinkles.These fillers are clear, biodegradable substances, based on hyaluronic acid. They are injected into the skin to replace hyaluronic acid that has dissipated over time.

Dermal fillers are for those who want to reduce or eliminate:

Frown lines that run between eyebrows
Vertical lines on the mouth
Lines at the corner of the mouth
Smile lines that run from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth
Some facial scars

Fillers may also be injected into the lips to create a plumper, full appearance.

What to expect on the dermal filler procedure day:

lip-b-and-a-large Prior to your procedure, a topical anesthetic cream can be applied to the area to be treated. You can also choose to have a local anesthetic injection.

During treatment, the filler is injected into the skin in small amounts with a very fine needle. The injected gel produces natural volume under the wrinkle, which is lifted up and smoothed out. The procedure takes about 20 minutes, leaves no marks or scars, and the results can be seen immediately.Filler wrinkle treatment is long-lasting but not permanent. The length of time a treatment maintains its effect depends on many factors such as your age, skin type, lifestyle and muscle activity, as well as the injection technique. Most patients choose to have a follow-up treatment six to twelve months after the initial treatment of wrinkles.

Realistic Expectations:

Immediately after the treatment, you can expect a slight redness, swelling, tenderness and an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the injection. The discomfort is temporary and generally disappears in a few days. For lip augmentation injections, the swelling may last up to a week. During this time, the lips can look somewhat uneven. This means that the result directly after the treatment should not be regarded as the final result. If the discomfort continues or if other reactions occur, you should contact your doctor.About 1 in 2000 patients experience reactions that can affect the surrounding tissues. Redness, tenderness and rarely acne-like formations have also been reported. These reactions have generally been described as mild to moderate with an average duration of two weeks.The following products are safe, made of hyaluronic acid, which is naturally present in the body:
