Filler injection

Fillers are one of the most popular cosmetic procedures, used worldwide. Their ability to address a wide range of problems, be injected in various locations, and provide quick and natural-looking results makes them a popular first choice for many. The trend in filler injections has evolved and advanced further. This article will delve into the latest filler trends: where are the best locations to inject? Which brands are currently popular? Romrawin Clinic has the answers. 

 

The filler trend of the year.

The trend in filler injections is no longer focused solely on filling or correcting facial imperfections, but also emphasizes personalized facial design. Doctors meticulously assess the problems and analyze facial proportions to plan a treatment truly suited to each individual. This includes considering injection sites, filler brands, and selecting the appropriate filler type and amount based on skin condition. The focus is on precise injection techniques rather than excessive injection, aiming to lift, tighten, and balance facial proportions from every angle. The result is a softer, more natural-looking face that blends seamlessly with the skin without drastically altering the original facial structure.

InjectionUnder-eye filler The under-eye area is a popular location for addressing issues such as deep under-eye circles, dark circles, hollow eyes, under-eye bags, and wrinkles around the eyes, all of which can make the face look tired, worn out, and lacking vitality.

How many types of filler are there? How do I choose the right one for my needs?

Choosing the right filler for the injection site is crucial for achieving a soft, natural-looking result that blends seamlessly with the skin. Fillers can be broadly categorized into four main types:

  • Tough meat

Firm fillers are strong, retain their shape, and are dense, similar to bricks, which can maintain their results for a longer period compared to other filler types. Firm fillers are mostly used to compensate for bone loss due to aging, providing lifting, restructuring, and adding dimension to the face. 

  • Middle meat

Medium-density fillers are stable, moderately flexible, and have a medium density. They adhere well to the skin, but their results last shorter than hard fillers. Medium-density fillers are primarily used for deep injections or to compensate for bone loss due to aging, providing results in filling deep wrinkles, adding volume, and sculpting the body for a natural look.

  • Tender meat

Soft fillers are highly flexible and have a jelly-like texture. They can withstand movement well and do not easily clump. Soft fillers are primarily used to compensate for fat loss due to aging, providing volume, fullness, and a natural-looking plumpness to the skin.

  • Fine texture

Fine-textured fillers are liquid, lightweight fillers with small molecules that distribute evenly and blend seamlessly into the skin. They are primarily used for superficial dermal injections to provide hydration, refine skin texture, reduce fine wrinkles, and improve overall skin condition.
