Dermal Filler Knees

Dermal filler, an injectable cosmetic filler used to restore facial volume, is also used to help with upper knee skin laxity. Dermal filler contains poly-L-lactic acid or PLLA, a biocompatible synthetic substance that stimulates collagen production.

Although Dermal filler is used in the face for facial rejuvenation it can be injected in the knees to smooth out the wrinkles and crepey skin in that area.

For most aesthetic patients, you will need several sessions to relieve saggy knees. There is a little downtime, and you may have a bit of swelling, numbness, and redness for a few hours following the procedure.

How Does Dermal filler for Knees Work?

Collagen is the main component in keeping your skin looking smooth, and as you grow older your natural production of collagen decreases, and wrinkles begin to form. Using Dermal filler at the hands of a certified aesthetician you can gracefully restore the skin above your knees.

Dermal filler is a cosmetic filler made of poly-L-lactic acid that is injected into the skin. It works to stimulate the production of collagen. It reduces the appearance of laxity around the knees and elbows that have developed over time.

Is Dermal filler Right for My Knees?

Stop ignoring the sagging skin on your knees. You may not think much about your knees, but they are exposed to sun damage, and if you want to look younger you need to take care of the skin around your knees.

When you undergo treatment, a topical anesthetic or numbing agent is used to help minimize any discomfort. Your provider will use Dermal filler to treat the identified and targeted areas and your appointment may take about 60-90 minutes.

After treatment you can resume your everyday activities.  You may feel some discomfort or bruising following the procedure, but you need no recovery time after treatment. Any bruising that occurs will resolve within a few weeks. The results achieved by using Dermal filler for your knee problems become natural-looking gradually over a few weeks. Your results can last up to two years or longer.
