The Difference Between Types of Fillers

Dermal fillers are one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedures, but many people don’t realize that there are several different types—each designed for a specific purpose.

1) Hyaluronic Acid Fillers (HA)

The most commonly used for lips, cheeks, jawline definition, and under-eye treatments.
Benefits: Natural look, safe, and can be dissolved if needed.

2) Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers

Used to add volume while also stimulating collagen production.
Great for patients wanting natural, long-lasting results.

3) Poly-L-Lactic Acid Fillers (Sculptra)

Not for immediate volume.
They work by gradually stimulating collagen over time.
Results last longer but appear gradually.

In summary:

Choosing the right filler depends on your goals, the treatment area, and your facial anatomy — which is why consulting a qualified specialist is essential.
