Cream filler
Over time, the skin loses its former elasticity, becomes less dense, a clear oval of the face gradually disappears. No one is immune from aging, mimic and deep wrinkles overtake unnoticed and create an aesthetic problem for the modern woman. It is impossible to get rid of wrinkles, but it is quite possible to correct their depth, to suspend education due to cosmetological procedures and high-quality home care.
Cream-filler will help smooth out the already formed wrinkles and stop the aging of the dermis due to the peculiarities of its action, active ingredients and method of application.
What it is
Filler is another name for “wrinkle filler”, or a substance that penetrates the skin structure and smoothes the dermis from the inside. In modern cosmetology, fillers are used as a subcutaneous injection: the injected composition penetrates into the deep layers of the skin, fills it from the inside with a moisturizing component based on hyaluronic acid, due to which the effect becomes noticeable immediately after the procedure.
Facial fillers instantly smooth the skin, stretch its surface and fill wrinkles, so that the epidermis looks perfect, uniform, acquires a natural healthy glow.
In the fight against wrinkles, the filler is the most effective means and the most popular among women 40 years and older. It has only one drawback - the effect of its use is temporary and averages from 2 months to 2 years. The effectiveness of the “work” of the filler is determined by its density, volume and compliance with the drinking regime by a woman.
Modern cosmetology has taken a step further: there have appeared fillers that do not require the introduction of expensive injections under the skin.
This cream often contains silicones in the composition to give the effect of smoothness and uniformity of the epidermis, additional components like retinol to improve the quality and elasticity of the dermis and vitamins - to strengthen.
Properties and effects on the skin
Cream filler appeared on the cosmetic market relatively recently, and not all women are familiar with his work. “Filler” is translated as “fill”, and even one word can characterize the principle of the product's operation: cream-filler fills the dermis and corrects wrinkles, heterogeneity of the epidermis, in a word, hides the signs of aging. Age skin is capricious in its own way, and such a product has a pronounced effect on moderately elastic skin, the one that preserves and maintains the shape of the face, but has wrinkles.
The presence of a specific set of components in the composition of the cream filler has the following effects on the skin:
- Hide age-related changes of the dermis due to its filling with active elements;
- Give the skin smoothness and uniformity., fill small wrinkles and make less noticeable deep, age;
- Filler in the cream prepares the skin for the next stage. - applying makeup and well moisturizes the dermis;
- The components of the product have a positive effect on the skin due to the cumulative effect: regular use of cosmetic filler enhances the regeneration of the dermis - stimulates cell renewal;
- The cream filler will not be able to tighten the nasolabial folds or restore the lost facial contours, but it is able to make less pronounced “crow's feet” in the eye area, smooth the surface of the skin of the face as a whole;
- Visually, the cream makes the skin of a woman more young, toned, smooth, filled with moisture. and gives confidence to the one who uses the product regularly;
- It moisturizes the dermis well and, as a rule, “works” in its deep layers.
The smoothing cream has several drawbacks, among which one can note its low effectiveness as compared with injections: the product does not fill the skin from the inside, it acts only on its surface and has visual changes of a short-term nature. Often the cost of a cream-like filler is high, and women remain dissatisfied with the results of his “work” because of high expectations.
No one has canceled allergic reactions to an expensive cream-filler, incompatibility of the skin to certain components in the composition of the product, which becomes another reason against cosmetic cream with a smoothing effect.
Indications and Contraindications
Cream-filler is recommended for women with age-related skin changes: the appearance of deep and even fine wrinkles, loss of facial contours, the formation of pronounced nasolabial folds and "crow's feet" in the eye area.
Manufacturers usually mention the age of 40+ on the product packaging, there are more “earlier” analogues, so it is important to pay attention to the condition of the skin and adequately evaluate it, answer the question, does the skin really need a filler.
So, the indications for filler use are:
- Wrinkle formation of medium and strong depth (estimate how much wrinkles are visible on the face, very noticeable and called deep age changes).
- Loss of skin tone and facial oval, the formation of pronounced nasolabial folds.
- Deterioration of the elasticity and strength of the dermis.
- The appearance of age-type pigment formations (pigment spots have a brown tint).
- The dull shade of the epidermis.
It should be noted that the cream-filler acts on the surface of the skin and quite a bit of product penetrates into its deep layers. The cream is indicated for use after cosmetic procedures to enhance the effect and restore the skin, as it can enhance cell regeneration.
Among the contraindications are the following:
- Intolerance of certain components of the cream;
- Allergic reactions to the composition;
- Pregnancy and lactation;
- Diseases of the dermis and facial neoplasms.
Note that before applying the filler cream on the face, it is worthwhile to test for an allergic reaction: apply a little product on the elbow bend and look at the effect after 5-10 minutes. If there is no redness and itching, the cream can be safely applied to the face.
Composition
Among the components of the filler cream in the first place is usually hyaluronic acid, which is produced by the body in a natural way, but due to the aging of the latter, the production of "hyaluronic acid" gradually stops.
Hyaluronic filler penetrates into the deep layers of the dermis, filling them with moisturizing ingredients and moisture that the skin begins to accumulate later.
Hyaluronic acid is a frequent guest of cosmetic filler creams. It is as close as possible to the natural component in the dermis, it is well absorbed, perfectly moisturizes, normalizes the water balance, practically does not cause irritations. This component is found not only in anti-aging products, but also in compositions for relatively young skin - 25+.
The next fill component is known as collagen.It is often found in combination with “hyaluronk” and is produced by our skin in a natural way. The lack of natural collagen leads to thinning of the dermis and loss of tone, the oval of the face is deformed, wrinkles appear. Collagen in the composition of the filler cream fills these indentations - wrinkles.
Elastin also plays a role in the appearance of the skin and is responsible for the elasticity of the dermis. It has a cumulative effect and is indispensable for anti-aging care. Often in the composition of the cream-filler occurs silicone - it gives the skin surface uniformity, fills wrinkles well and smoothes the surface, but gives a short effect - before the first washing.
Rules of application
The use of cream-filler should begin with visible age-related changes and not earlier than the age of 30 years.If you start using this product regularly, your skin will no longer produce collagen and elastin in a natural way and will begin to "be lazy", thanks to which the aging process will increase its speed.
Apply the cream-filler to the cleansed skin; If the product is based on hyaluronic acid, manufacturers recommend leaving the epidermis slightly moist and put the product on top for better absorption of the ingredients. Hyaluronic filler cream is recommended to be applied 1 hour before leaving the house during the warm season and no later than 1.5 hours under the condition of a cold period: hyaluronic acid molecules crystallize at low temperatures, in a word, they become solid and do not moisturize the skin.
