METHOD FOR IMPROVING DURATION OF EFFECT OF DERMAL FILLER TREATMENT

摘要

A method of treating midface volume deficit in a person is provided. The method generally includes administering a dermal filler, such as a hyaluronic acid based dermal filler, in a sequence of injections that enhance effectiveness and/or duration of the filler. The method may include initially introducing a volume of the filler into at a zygomaticomalar region of the face prior to introducing one or more additional volumes of the filler into the anteromedial region and the submalar region, such that the duration of effectiveness of the treatment is improved, and less filler is required to achieve a desired correction.
