Fillers

Fillers

Formerly, physicians had only animal forms of fillers, which were known by the names of ‘Zyplast’ and ‘Zyderm’. These animal-derived fillers were solely used to fill in the lines and creases round the mouth. Such substances had to be tested before human use, so as to rule any chance of allergy or undesirable reaction to the filler. Moreover, the effects brought about by these fillers lasted for about 3 months only. In the past ten years, the field of cosmetics has made remarkable progresses and achievements. One of its works include the development of such FDA-approved fillers that not only correct the creases, lines and wrinkles of the face, but also initiate rejuvenation of the skin, which replenishes its volume and contour. Such kind of rejuvenation can also be brought in other areas of the body besides the face. These newly developed fillers need no testing prior to use, are completely safe when performed by a specialized person, and produce effects that last much longer. Here is a list of different kinds of fillers along with their description:
