Skin is held tight and smooth by 3 critical elements: collagen, hyaluronic acid, and elastin. Your body produces these compounds and then combines them to create a firm, sponge-like mesh under the surface of the skin. This elastic structure keeps the skin surface smooth.
As we age, however, the meshwork slowly loses its strength and integrity. As the support structure weakens, the skin loses its smoothness. Cosmetic filler injections will actually help to fill the thinned-out meshwork by plumping the tissue underneath the skin. Thereby shrinking wrinkles, and making your skin more firm, smooth, and younger-looking.
At Contemporary Health Center, we offer a variety of options for facial fillers. While some serve a more specific purpose, Dr. Bloy and his staff will help you choose the product that’s perfect for your skin and situation.
