As we age, the structure of the facial tissues can change, from bone loss to fat and muscle decline. The loss of essential substances such as hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin can cause the skin to lose its elasticity, which in turn can result in sagging of the skin. As the skin begins to sag, the lower face can suffer and the jawline can be less defined and jowls can appear. At Dr George Roman Aesthetics, we offer facial recontouring using injectable dermal fillers; a very effective alternative to invasive surgery where results are seen immediately and can last anything from 6 to 12 months.
This treatment is perfect for those who are between the ages of 40 to 60 and are experiencing lower facial ageing. Replacing lost hyaluronic acid (HA) with a viscous dermal filler, which contains HA within, can lift and support and sculpt weak skin tissues as well as replenish the vital moisture that our skin can lose as we get older.
