AestheFill is a collagen stimulator whose main ingredient is Poly-D,L-lactic Acid (PDLLA). Based on your facial structure and needs, a doctor assesses the injection areas and dosage to help improve sunken cheeks and temples and refine facial contours by stimulating new collagen.
As we age, collagen gradually declines, which can reduce skin support and lead to sunken cheeks, deeper lines and sagging. Some people choose collagen-stimulating injections as one way to address these concerns.
