Thin Lips & Volume Loss
As we age, it's common to notice volume loss in the face and lips as collagen – the substance that gives our skin a firm, plump look – production slows down.
When it comes to aging skin, we like to use a helium balloon as an analogy: at first, it’s round, firm and full. After a period of time, the volume of gas reduces inside, causing the balloon to droop and decrease in size. Eventually it really deflates, creating a wrinkled form on its surface. Basically, the same thing happens to our skin as we lose volume of collagen, fat, bone & muscle.
Dermal filler can be used to treat these sunken areas restoring fullness and definition in the lips and face.
