In the past couple of years, "skin fillers" have become a buzzword for those of us visiting clinics for facial treatments, right? We’re used to hearing about facial fillers for contouring, like lip, chin, or under-eye fillers. But now, there’s a lot of talk about skin fillers too. In this article, I will explain the differences and similarities between facial fillers and skin fillers, so you know exactly what each one does.
The article will also introduce Belotero Revive, a popular skin filler. This filler is especially known for giving a smooth, hydrated, plump appearance to the skin, making it look fresh and healthy. Let’s dive into the details.
Comparing facial fillers and skin fillers, point by point
Purpose of injecting fillers
Facial fillers are used to address facial structure concerns, such as filling in sunken areas, reducing deep wrinkles, and making the face look fuller and more youthful. This can include treatments for sunken cheeks, hollow temples, uneven jawlines, or adding volume to thin lips for a new look.
Skin fillers like Belotero Revive are specifically for improving skin quality, not for shaping the face. They help with skin hydration and smoothing out rough, dry, or tired-looking skin. Although skin fillers don’t change facial structure, they can make the skin appear more youthful by adding a natural glow.
Ingredients in each filler type
Facial fillers contain hyaluronic acid (HA), which is naturally found in the body. High-quality facial fillers are safe, dissolve naturally over time, and can be removed with specific dissolving injections, leaving no harmful residue behind.
Belotero Revive also has hyaluronic acid, but with added glycerol for locking in moisture. This mix allows the filler to spread evenly in the skin, adding hydration while the HA works on improving the skin texture.
Injection techniques and methods
Facial fillers: Since facial concerns vary, fillers used here must be adapted to each issue. For example, softer, more flexible fillers work well for areas with wrinkles or dark under-eye circles, while firmer fillers are better for reshaping areas like the chin or jawline.
Facial fillers are injected deeper, sometimes close to the bone (Periosteal layer), for better structure and volume.
Skin fillers (Belotero Revive): Skin fillers have a smoother texture and are injected at a medium skin depth for even distribution. Doctors use manual injection techniques to ensure the product spreads precisely across the skin layer.
Results after injection
Facial fillers: You’ll see an immediate improvement in the treated area, with enhanced fullness and smoother skin. For example, fillers under the eyes can reduce hollow darkness, giving a more refreshed look. Chin fillers help reshape and elongate the chin, balancing the face for a more oval appearance.
Skin fillers: This type of filler can boost skin hydration, refine texture, and make skin appear plump, dewy, and healthy. It minimizes pores, allowing makeup to adhere better and last longer.
Belotero Revive filler is ideal for those wanting to enhance skin quality, it focuses on deep hydration and plumping. Suitable for all skin types, it’s an excellent option for anyone with dry, uneven skin or large pores looking for a revitalized, youthful glow.
Duration and longevity of results
Facial fillers: HA-based fillers gradually break down in the body over 8-12 months, though factors like lifestyle, skin type, and usage of the treated area can affect longevity. Each person may experience slightly different results based on individual conditions.
Skin fillers: Similar in duration to facial fillers, Belotero Revive maintains smooth, hydrated, and glowing skin for 6-9 months. Longevity varies depending on skin quality and care routines.
For those with more significant skin concerns, doctors recommend monthly sessions for three months. People with healthier skin can extend the interval to every six months.
