What are facial dermal fillers?

Monday, December 28th, 2009

smilingDermal fillers, like Restylane, Perlane and Juvederm, provide patients with restored skin volume and fullness while correcting moderate to deep facial wrinkles and folds. Because they are composed of hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the human body, these fillers require no allergy test prior to treatment and they have been proven safe and effective for more than a decade.

Beauty Myth: I need to completely avoid the sun

Vitamin D is essential for proper calcium absorption and is found in certain foods like fish, eggs, Vitamin D milk, and cod liver oil. Vitamin D is also produced naturally when skin is exposed to sunlight. Just how much sunlight should you get? The key is moderation. Unless your doctor tells you otherwise, aim for 15 minutes of sunlight per day.
