What is smart fill?
In recent years, the desire to delay the signs of aging has become very important for both women and men. Stating that this increasing demand has led to the development of many medical aesthetic methods and applications that fight aging, Dr. Osman Baş said that one of the most important points in skin rejuvenation is to increase collagen production, and in this context, fillers that increase collagen production are more preferred in recent years.
Is “Smart Fill” safer?
The prominent features are that the filling material injected into the skin is completely destroyed by bio-absorption within 1-3 months, its effects begin in a month and occur gradually over a period of four months, and it does not increase in volume rapidly. We can say that new generation collagen stimulating fillers are safer for reasons such as not having a cross-link structure that can cause negative effects.
Two factors, defined as genetic and environmental factors, determine our aging process. Environmental factors that are more effective than these, especially sun rays, cause very serious damage to skin collagen. In addition, many causes such as smoking, malnutrition, unhealthy living conditions, hormonal disorders, systemic and metabolic diseases are among the causes of environmental aging. During the aging process, the structure of collagen in our skin deteriorates and becomes damaged. The quality of collagen decreases and the equivalent of this situation in the skin is relaxation and loss of elasticity. In addition, the amount of skin collagen decreases due to excessive destruction and insufficient production of new ones. As a result, with the participation of the effect of gravity in the process, the decrease in the fullness on the cheekbones, discharge and downward sagging of the cheeks,
In this process, it is aimed to increase the amount of collagen and the quality of the produced collagen by stimulating the body’s own collagen production mechanisms. For this reason, new generation fillers that support collagen production are highly preferred recently.
“Smart Fill” in collagen production
Consisting of a special ingredient that makes up 70 percent of the filler, “Smart Filler” increases the collagen production in the body, giving the appearance of fullness at the first application. After 6-8 weeks of application, it is completely bio-absorbed and disappears. It is PCL Particles homogeneously dispersed in the skin that will create the filling effect in real terms. These particles cause collagen formation in different volumes depending on their proximity to each other. Collagen formation begins in the first month and continues to increase until the fourth month. As a result, when the PCL particles are completely bio-absorbed, enough collagen is formed to give the lifting effect and fullness. KaproLactone, which has been used safely as a suture and thread in surgical applications for about 30 years, constitutes the remaining 30 percent of the filling.
How is it applied?
The application of collagen stimulating fillers is very easy as with other fillers. Therefore, it can be expressed as a small touch. It is painless due to its application with local anesthetic. After the application, it is possible to return to daily life immediately. The slight fullness seen at the first application belongs to the gel and disappears in a few weeks. It is necessary to wait 3-4 months for the real effect. Because this time is needed for adequate collagen formation. At the end of this period, in addition to the desired lifting effect and fullness on the skin, an improvement in skin quality and appearance is observed.
As a collagen stimulating filler, Smart Filler comes in four different forms that can last from one year to four years. It can be applied anywhere on the face that needs volume and lifting, except for the lips and under the eyes. It is applied on the back of the hand, neck and décolleté to increase skin quality and elasticity. It can help with facial scars, deep acne scars and loose skin that has lost its elasticity.
