DERMA FILLERS – Juvederm®

Young skin is smooth and elastic because it contains a lot of “Hyaluronic Acid”. As we age, the amount of hyaluronic acid in the skin gradually diminishes. As a result, the skin becomes dryer, thinner and more wrinkled.

Fillers used by First Impressions Medical Aesthetics & Rejuvenation Clinic are a long-lasting but not permanent synthetic form of hyaluronic acid. The gel mimics the naturally occurring substance by adding volume to the skin. When fillers are injected under the surface of the skin, the gel adds volume, and smooths out lines on the face.
