Clearing My Skin Once and For All

I come from a long line of people who have struggled with their skin, which is why I wasn't surprised to develop painful cystic acne during my teenage years. However, it didn't make the condition any less debilitating, and I really wanted to learn how to overcome the problem. I talked with my parents about taking me to the dermatologist, and they were extremely supportive and kind. The doctor helped me to tackle my skin concerns, and it helped me to improve my confidence a lot. This blog is all about taking the right steps to improve your skin and knowing how to find a great doctor.

How To Take Advantage Of Dermal Fillers

Dermatologists are specialists who help patients with every aspect of skincare and skin health. Many people first visit a dermatologist when seeking help for acne. However, your dermatologist can do more than simply prescribe acne remedies. Dermatologists can also help people who'd like to make more drastic changes to their appearance.

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that can subtly or dramatically alter your looks. Your dermatologist can administer these injections to help you achieve the look you desire. Here are a few ways to take advantage of dermal fillers:

1. Under-Eye Treatment

A dark, hollow under-eye area can make you look tired, and a puffy under-eye area can age your face. For the most part, your under-eye appearance is determined by genetics. However, a lack of sleep can exacerbate dark under-eyes. Dermal fillers can reduce the appearance of dark circles under your eyes. When you select this treatment, your dermatologist will carefully inject fillers into the area below your eyes, which will eliminate dark shadows and puffiness. 

2. Wrinkle Reduction

As you get older, you will notice changes in your appearance. Many people begin to notice wrinkles in their 30s. Over-the-counter remedies can subtly fade wrinkles, but dermal fillers can eradicate them completely. Dermal fillers can fill deep lines and wrinkles. During the dermal filler procedure, your dermatologist will judiciously apply fillers to give you a natural yet youthful look. Many patients are happy to know that the effects of dermal fillers can last for several months.

3. Non-Surgical Nose Job

Some people are unhappy with the shape or size of their nose, but a rhinoplasty procedure is a big commitment. Fortunately, you can alter the shape of your nose without undergoing surgery. Dermal fillers are often used to perform non-surgical nose jobs. Using dermal filler injections, your dermatologist can heighten your nose bridge and refine the tip of your nose. Some people use non-surgical nose jobs as a test run to figure out if they'd like a rhinoplasty procedure in the future. 

4. Facial Contouring

Dermal fillers can also be used to change the contours of your face. High cheekbones are highly sought after, but the placement of a person's cheekbones is determined by their genes. However, your dermatologist can give you the appearance of prominent, high cheekbones by injecting dermal fillers into your cheeks. This method can also be used to enhance your chin, jawline, and other facial areas.
