What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are gel-like cross linked sterile synthetic material made from Hyaluronic acid, which is a natural biodegradable component of our own skin that can be synthesised. Dermal fillers add youthful volume to the structures that support our skin, the gel is injected beneath the skins surface resulting in a firmer and smoother appearance in addition to increasing collagen production resulting in improvement in skin hydration and resilience.
