HA Dermal Fillers are on the Rise
|
Despite the fact that Botox is getting a big negative rap these days, the use of dermal fillers in general seems to be on the rise. A report by Millennium Research Group indicates specifically that the use of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers is steadily increasing. This may be specifically related to the fact that people are moving away from the use of Botox during these controversial times and are seeking out alternative dermal fillers to achieve the same results they were previously getting from Botox.
In addition to safety, there are other reasons that people are interested in HA dermal fillers:
"HA dermal fillers, the second-most popular facial aesthetic treatment after botulinum toxin (Botox) injections in 2006, will experience very strong growth over the next five years because cosmetic HA injections are quick, safe, effective, and relatively inexpensive." (source)
Those dermal fillers which use Hyaluronic Acid as the main ingredient include brand names such as Restylane, Juvederm and Hylaform.
Question of the Day: What do you think is the biggest reason that HA dermal fillers are on the rise?

Lip Fillers Recommended For Nice Winter Lips
|
A recent article at The Daily Herald discussed the fact that your lips need a lot of care in the winter that they might not need during the rest of the year. As we move towards the cooler months, you'll want to avoid chapped lips by protecting them from the wind and cold. But if you're looking for lips that do more than just survive the winter, if you really want lips that stand out and get noticed, you might want to consider getting out of the chilly air and into your doctor's office for some lip filler treatments.
Lip augmentation treatment options include:
- Collagen
- Hylaform
- Restylane
- Radiesse
These treatments can improve the appearance of your lips in a number of ways. They can make thin lips look fuller and reduce lines and wrinkling around the lips. Once you've gotten your treatments, you'll want to protect your lips with appropriate balms or glosses. Ask your doctor what type of winter protection is right to use after the treatment.
