How dermal fillers work

Dermal fillers are a gel-like substance of hyaluronic acid that is injected into skin to lift and plump out areas that have lost collagen as a result of the natural ageing process.

Hyaluronic acid helps absorb moisture and keeps your skin staying hydrated, which helps with maintaining a youthful look, thus injecting dermal filler into the skin improves skin quality and adds to any loss or lack of volume.
