Medical Grade Skin Care
Fillers offer a safe and effective way to address signs of aging, enhance your natural beauty, and boost your confidence. Remember, their artistry lies not just in the materials but in the expertise of the injection procedure. At Beauty By Barr, MD, we utilize cutting-edge techniques to achieve a youthful vibrancy on your face.
What is Medical Grade Skin Care?
Fillers are injectable gels composed of biocompatible materials like hyaluronic acid, collagen, or poly-L-lactic acid. These substances occur naturally within the body, playing a crucial role in maintaining skin structure and hydration. As we age, however, their production declines, leading to volume loss, wrinkles, and sagging. While dermal fillers are often sought for their cosmetic benefits, they can also offer functional improvements. For example, filling under-eye hollows can brighten the eyes and reduce the appearance of fatigue.
How Does Medical Grade Skin Care work?
These injectable wonders act like miniature architects, filling hollows and supporting sagging tissues. Hyaluronic acid, a natural moisture magnet, attracts water, adding volume and smoothing wrinkles. Collagen-stimulating fillers, on the other hand, trigger your own body’s collagen production, providing long-lasting effects. Fillers replace lost volume in areas like the cheeks, lips, and temples, restoring a youthful fullness. By filling in crevices and providing support, fillers smooth away lines and wrinkles, particularly nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
