How to Find the Best Filler for Black Women

Dermal fillers are an excellent option for women of color who want to address volume loss and restore youthful contours, without surgery, incisions, or downtime.

However, in order to achieve natural-looking results that enhance features and create facial harmony, patients must choose a highly skilled and qualified injector.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are gel-like products that are injected beneath the skin to restore volume, fill-in wrinkles, smooth lines and folds, correct hollowing, improve facial contours, and enhance lips.

Treatment is nonsurgical and performed in the comfort of your dermatologist or plastic surgeon’s office.

Most patients find the process to be quick, easy, and virtually painless. They also love the fact that fillers produce instant results, that can last between six months to two years.

How to Find the Best Filler for Black Women

If you are looking for the best filler for black women, there are several factors to consider.

To start, be sure that you choose a highly skilled and experienced provider who understands ethnic variations in beauty and customizes treatment to each individual’s needs and goals. Especially since ideal proportions can vary between ethnicities.

For example, ideal proportions for a Caucasian lip are 1:1.6, which creates a slightly larger lower lip. On the other hand, ideal lip proportions for African American and Asian women are closer to 1:1.

Understanding such differences is essential when performing filler for black women.

What’s more, the injector you select should approach injections with a sense of artistry and use the most advanced techniques.

This helps to maximize filler benefits and minimize unwanted side effects, including hyperpigmentation and bruising, that can be harder to resolve in women of color.
