What is the action of wrinkle fillers?
Wrinkle fillers are hyaluronic acid-based gel implants used to hide wrinkles.
They are injected into the surface layer of the skin, where the body already naturally secretes this acid. The injected acids join their strength to the HA of the body to instantly create volume.

What are the benefits of wrinkle fillers?
Wrinkle fillers can improve appearance in a number of ways, including:
- Soften lines and folds around the mouth as well as wrinkles around the eyes and on the forehead.
- Recreate volume in the cheeks and in the hollows around the eyes.
- Make thin lips fuller.
- Slightly redraw the oval of the face, to counteract the double chin.
- Reduce the appearance of superficial scars such as acne marks.
Although the use of fillers alone brings tremendous benefits, generally best results are obtained when combined with Botox injections.
How is the intervention carried out?
Wrinkle fillers are injected with very fine needles into the surface layer of the skin.
Considering the defect to be corrected, for example, depending on the smoothness or depth of the wrinkle, our doctors choose a product whose molecules are of appropriate size to obtain the desired volume.
The procedure causes mild but tolerable discomfort. Note, however, that the procedure on the lip requires local anesthesia, since this is the most sensitive area of the body.
