The product Restylane sounds a lot more complicated than it actually is.

Before we get into the different types of wrinkle fillers, let’s first examine what causes wrinkles. There are three different levels to the skin, namely, the epidermis, the dermis, and the hypodermis.
The epidermis is a layer of hardened cells that helps to protect you from the ravages of the sun and environmental pollutants. The dermis is filled with fibers that give the skin elasticity. The dermis is also where you find collagen. The hypodermis contains fat which the body needs to regulate your temperature, and for insulation as well as a ready source of energy.
As you age, the different layers […]

Why use Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedures
Not all people are blessed with perfect symmetrical features and matchless skin. Through no fault of their own, some of them are born with not quite perfect skin and features. A teenager with severe acne scars will naturally feel very shy and withdrawn. Cosmetic surgery is not always about improving an already good appearance, but very often just about feeling more self-assured and confident.
Surgical cosmetic procedures are normally very expensive, and thus out of the reach of a great many people. Many people also have a very justifiable fear of surgery, and the possible consequences if […]

As we age, our facial lines begin to deepen, and we begin to develop a multitude of new, fine lines that also deepen as time goes on. In contrast to Botox, which relaxes the area, minimising the appearance of lines, dermal fillers actually fill these lines after being injected under the skin. There are several types of dermal fillers, produced under a wide range of trade names, and a cosmetic surgeon will be able to advise you as to which of these suits you best. We look at the active ingredients used in dermal fillers.
