Explore Why People Are Choosing Dermal Fillers in Pittsburgh

At Cosmetic Laser Centers℠, we empower people to feel beautiful and confident at any age.

While aging skin is a natural process, if you feel like your skin is not as youthful and plump as you’d like, we have an effective modern solution that allows you to take control of your look and your confidence.

Dermal fillers are a versatile, non-surgical treatment that addresses fine lines, wrinkles and hollowed areas. Here’s how they can help you feel like your best self.

How Do Dermal Fillers Work?

Dermal fillers usually use hyaluronic acid (HA) mixed with an anesthetic ingredient, such as lidocaine, to address wrinkles, loose skin, hollowed areas, and work as a plumping agent.

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is naturally present in our bodies and works by hydrating and volumizing the skin. As hyaluronic acid depletes as we age, injectable fillers can improve the look of the areas where you naturally lose volume.

Do Dermal Fillers Improve Self-Confidence? The Data Says Yes!

Research shows that injectable fillers improve self confidence by making individuals feel better about their appearance and effectively targeting signs of aging. Your body’s collagen production decreases in your late 20s and early 30s. The combination of hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastin in the body work together to keep your skin hydrated, voluminous, and tight.

It’s therefore no surprise that when these substances begin to deplete with age, it can start to show in your skin. Many notice dryness, sagging, hollowed areas, fine lines, and wrinkles – all of which can impact your confidence.

Although natural aging affects everyone, if you want to improve the changes that the aging process is having on your face, injectable fillers can directly improve your satisfaction with your appearance by reversing signs of aging and restoring your skin’s volume and youth.

What Are the Different Types of Dermal Fillers?

Depending on your needs and desired results, there are many different dermal fillers available to help you achieve the perfect look that restores your youthful glow and confidence.

During your initial consultation at Cosmetic Laser Centers℠, our master injector will chat with you and create a customized filler treatment plan that’s personalized for your goals. Our office uses the top three brands of injectable fillers: Restylane®, Sculptra®, and Juvéderm®.

During your treatment, our master injector will apply the filler into the skin using a very small needle or microcannula. You may need to schedule follow-up appointments for future injections, as dermal fillers are not permanent and naturally dissolve over time.

Restylane® Dermal Filler

Restylane® dermal filler is made of hyaluronic acid, the natural substance found in your body, meaning no allergy testing is required for this dermal filler brand. Your appointment for Restylane® takes an hour or less, and results typically last between six and 12 months.

Sculptra® Dermal Filler

Made of poly-L-lactic acid, Sculptra® is a long-lasting dermal filler. Some patients have reported seeing results for as long as five years after injection. Sculptra received FDA approval in 2004. It was originally created to help restore cheek volume, especially after dramatic weight loss.

Juvéderm® Dermal Filler

Made from hyaluronic acid like Restylane® dermal filler, Juvéderm® treatments last up to six months to two years. This durability is thanks in part to its Hylacross™ technology. Treatments take an hour or less, and you’ll see results immediately.
