How to Use Dermal Fillers for a More Youthful Appearance

Dermal fillers have become immensely popular over the last few years… and with good reason! They are an effective way to add the desired fullness and volume to the facial area to turn back the clock on the appearance of aging skin and achieve a more vibrant, youthful appearance. However, you might be wondering how to use dermal fillers to achieve your own aesthetic goals. 

At Cumberland Skin, our providers are experienced in administering dermal fillers to help clients feel more confident in their skin. Learn more about how we use this popular injectable to take years off your appearance. 

Cheekbones are one of the most prominent features on the face. They’re also one of the first areas to show signs of aging, such as lost volume and sagging skin. With dermal fillers, the skin just above the cheekbones can be raised, giving the face a more youthful appearance. 

Furthermore, adding volume to the cheekbones with dermal fillers can seamlessly sculpt the face to appear more slim. This simple act can take years off the face and contribute to a revitalized look. 

Did you know that dermal fillers can be used to slim the jawline, sculpt the chin, and create effortless definition? Sagging skin underneath the jawline and chin, also known as “jowls,” is a telltale sign of aging. Overtime, the skin loses its elasticity and becomes thinner, contributing to an aging appearance. 

With the right provider who understands how to sculpt the face using dermal fillers, the solution can be injected into the chin and neck to fill out the jowls and create a smooth transition between the two. This reshapes the chin and jawline for an anti-aging effect. 

It’s not just places like the forehead, eyes, and neck that show signs of aging. The lips are also susceptible to wrinkles, fine lines, lost volume, and lack of definition, contributing to an older appearance. Because of the delicate tissues in the lips, this facial feature often shows signs of aging quicker than other areas of the skin. 

One of the top ways to use dermal fillers is to combat this by adding much-needed structure for subtle definition and restored volume for younger-looking lips. 

Did you know that dermal fillers can be used to fill in facial scarring, such as acne scars? Leftover from troublesome bouts of acne and frequent breakouts, depressed scars and marks can add years to the face. 

With dermal fillers, your provider can expertly inject the filler solution into the affected areas to add volume to depressed skin, seamlessly improving the look of scars. Additionally, many dermal filler solutions increase the production of collagen, which will further help reduce the appearance of acne scars. 

One of the more unique ways to use dermal fillers is gently sculpting and reshaping the nose—all without the need for surgery! 

Many patients desire certain nose adjustments, such as lessening the appearance of an unwanted bump, addressing any unevenness, or lifting a drooping nasal tip. The right provider can strategically inject the filler solution to achieve your desired nose appearance—absolutely no cutting or bleeding necessary!
