Candidates for Dermal Fillers

Most people who opt for dermal fillers are over 35 and are experiencing the effects of premature ageing, however younger people in their 20s often have fillers to give them a more sexy pout or correct minor deformities in the nose as an alternative to a nose job.

If you have any of the following concerns, you could be a candidate for dermal fillers:

* Deep nose to mouth lines (nasolabial folds)
* Smoker’s lines around the mouth
* Loss of volume in the cheeks
* Thin or un-shapely lips
* Minor nose deformities such as nasal humps
* A receding chin

Fillers are generally very safe nowadays however pregnant women or women who are breast feeding are not advised to have treatment. People with acne should get the condition address first as skin conditions like this can increase the risk of infection following injections with dermal fillers.

Some fillers, such as those made from bovine collagen, can cause an allergic reaction and involve a skin test prior to treatment. Make sure you check what material the filler you are having is made from in case you are allergic to any of the components. Certain conditions such as auto-immune disease and rheumatoid arthritis can also make you an unsuitable candidate for this type of filler.

The best way to discover if fillers are right for you is to speak to a qualified cosmetic practitioner who will be able to discuss the types of filler available and decide which may be best for you.
