FILLERS
Today, people prefer methods that can be applied more easily and return to their daily activities in a shorter time instead of surgical methods in skin rejuvenation. One of these methods is filling.
• Filling the fine lines in the middle of the eyebrow, forehead, and around the eyes
• Non-surgical rhinoplasty
• Creating cheekbones
• Filling of the dark circles around the eyes
• Filling the lines on the edge of the nose
• Lip augmentation
• Jaw shaping
• Filling collapsed scars such as acne scars and injury scars are the main uses of facial fillers.
For this purpose, many different filling materials are used. Among them, fat injection, hyaluronic acid, and calcium hydroxyapatite are preferred the most. Among them, hyaluronic acid fillers are very popular in terms of safety and ease of application. The quality of the filler and the application technique are of great importance.
FAT INJECTION
In the areas experiencing loss of volume, fat injection can be performed to fill in the area to restore the smooth appearance of the skin. In this operation, the patient’s own fat tissue is used. In addition to the filling effect of adipose tissue, it also has a tissue regenerative effect thanks to the stem cells it contains.
The most common areas of fat injection on the face are the temples, around the eyes, jaw tip, and jaw contour.
The most important disadvantage of this technique is that most of the applied fat injection melts over time. For this reason, a fat injection should be done over the required amount by foreseeing the volume loss that will occur over time.
While the permanence rate is high in the eye area, mid-face and jaw, and jaw contours, losses are very high in mobile areas such as lips and nose-lip lines. However, the repairing effects of fat injection are permanent.
