How to use YouthFill
General Instructions for Filler Injection Procedure
Dermal filler injections should be administered only by trained medical professionals with the proper experience and expertise. Individuals without medical certifications should not attempt to self-inject, as there is risk for health-related and aesthetic complications.
Patients should keep in mind the timing of when they decide to receive a filler injection procedure. Even with the proper technique and experience, bruising and swelling are usually unavoidable, and can last for up to a week. Hence, when scheduling a filler injection procedure with a licensed practitioner, be mindful to leave adequate time for recovery before any upcoming important events.
With good technique and comfort measures, certified medical professionals can provide a filler procedure that is tolerable in pain levels. Before the injection period, the injection site and the surrounding areas should be adequately cleaned and disinfected. The entire filler injection process typically takes around 15 to 30 mins. After the procedure, the patient should be given filler aftercare instructions, and are able to leave the clinic.
Certified medical professionals administer facial fillers using a combination of filler injection techniques in most cases.
Common Filler Injection Techniques
1. Tunneling Technique
The tunneling technique is most commonly used to correct fine lines and straight wrinkles. This injection technique is versatile, as it can treat superficial skin lines, deep-set wrinkles, or areas of diffuse volume loss. The tunneling technique is a highly preferred way to inject facial fillers as it is considered the safest and most natural. To produce optimal results, the needle should be inserted at a slanted, 30 to 45 degree angle, which follows the direction of the wrinkle.
Dermal fillers are not to be injected when the cannula or needle is entering the skin, or while placed at its endpoint. All dermal fillers should be injected when the needle is in the process of being withdrawn. This is called “retro-trace” or “retrograde” injections, and it ensures that the filler is distributed in a safe and even manner in the right areas.
2. Point Technique
The point technique involves a process in which several small droplets of filler are injected into the deep dermis (located at the deep layers of the skin) or the subcutaneous layer (located below the skin). These microinjections are administered consecutively in close proximity to one another. This process causes the small droplets of filler to meld and work together to lift the wrinkle up and reduce its depth and contours. The point technique is particularly effective at providing overall hydration to the skin or filling a large area in the deep dermis that is hollow. A limitation of the point technique is that it may produce less natural-looking results and may cause further complications. Hence, the point technique should only be used in situations deemed appropriate by the certified practitioner.
3. Stretching Technique
The stretching technique requires stretching and applying pressure to the skin that surrounds the targeted wrinkle. The application of tension to the skin will allow the needle to be placed and angled more easily and precisely. This enables better visualization through the skin, and overall ensures that the filler is being administered correctly in the intended areas. The stretching technique is typically applied to the areas with excess, sagging or loose skin.
4. The Dual Plane Technique
The Dual Plane Technique involves the injection of facial filler to two different levels of the skin in the same area. The two different levels are most commonly the dermis, which is the middle layer of the skin, and the subdermal plane, which is the level directly below the skin. The second injection administered to the deeper level (i.e. the subdermal plane) is used to enhance the effects of the initial injection administered at the upper layer. In some cases, two different types of fillers are used for the two different layers. The filler with thinner consistency is administered to the upper layer, while the filler with thicker consistency is administered to the lower layer. This technique is typically employed in two situations. First, if the patient’s target area is in constant movement regularly, the dual plane technique can provide more natural-looking results of the filler across all potential facial expressions. Second, this technique is particularly useful when trying to correct an area of the face where there are both wrinkles in the superficial layer and volume loss in the deeper layer..
