What is a filler?
A filler is a substance that is injected under the skin to fill areas that suffer from wrinkles or sagging or to enhance the volume of certain areas of the face. The substance used is usually safe and compatible with the body, such as hyaluronic acid, which helps moisturize the skin and stimulate collagen production.
