Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are the most sought-after type of dermal filler used today. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeon (ASPS), it is usually a “good choice” as it is so naturally compatible with the body. HA is a substance that is found naturally in cells. It transfers "essential nutrients" from the bloodstream to the skin. HA plumps and hydrates the skin as well as restore elasticity and volume. In general, HA fillers are gel-like and soft in texture. The outcomes are temporary due to the biocompatibility of this substance. A majority of patients experience visible outcomes for 6 to 12 months before the body absorbs the HA naturally. Some HA soft tissue fillers contain the numbing agent lidocaine, which helps minimize minor discomfort to patients during and after the injectable procedure. FDA-Approved HA Fillers- Juvederm
