The natural process of aging means that our skin is also aging. Aging, as we all accept, results in undesirable changes in skin. The basic reason for these changes to manifest is that the fat and collagen in the skin begin to diminish. This results in sagging of our skin and wrinkles are formed. The manifestations are more obvious in our face: around the eyes and in the lips.

Every person on earth prefers to show themselves as young as possible, which means we look for solutions. We want to enhance our lips; we want to reduce the frown lines; and we want to reduce the wrinkles in the face. Facelift has been the preferred way sometime ago. But facelift is a surgical procedure and is expensive. The fact that it is a surgical procedure means that it is an invasive process, hence there are risks involved. So people start looking for a minimally invasive procedure which also is not expensive. Dermal fillers are the most preferred solution in this modern time.

Dermal Fillers For Lips may be injected into those areas where there are fine lines and wrinkles. Around the eyes, eyebrows, bridge of the mouth, lips, jaw line and cheeks are the frequently occurring problem areas. Proper selection of dermal filler is the key in determining how long-lasting the procedure is.

There are different types of Dermal Fillers and one should exercise discretion before ending up in any preference. Even though bovine collagen were the first legally approved soft tissue augmentation in the United States, since they are derived from domestic cattle, there are associated risks. Mad Cow disease is one such risk. Moreover, one has to undergo skin testing, as the person may be allergic to bovine collagen.

Other possible fillers are human collagen, donor tissue fat, hyaluronic acid, and even ones own fat (autologous fat). Human collagen does not require, contrary to bovine collagens, skin testing. Hence it is the favored process, especially in lip enhancement and frown line reduction. Autologous fat is usually taken from the very person undergoing the treatment. Fat from thighs, buttocks, or stomach is removed by a micro liposuction procedure. Calcium hydroxyapatite, poly-l-lactic acid, polymers, collagen-related implants are other fillers that are prevalent. None of these dermal fillers require skin testing. Hyaluronic acid is another filler which gives skin volume by binding to water. Calcium hydroxyapatite degrades relatively slowly; hence the result will be longer-lasting. Research on other possible fillers is still on. Besides the possible areas of application for dermal fillers, scarring from injury to the face or acne can also be corrected using Lip Dermal Fillers
