To slow down the aging process, women use special anti-age cosmetics. For a more effective result, the injection method of introducing fillers is recommended. They play the role of a “filler” of voids formed in the forehead, nasolabial triangle, and areas around the eyes. In modern cosmetology, it is possible to use fillers to correct aging skin not only from the inside, but also from the outside. For this purpose, innovative care products and filler creams have been developed.
Cream filler - what is it?
Filler is a thick gel that is usually injected under the skin. It contains components such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, elastin, silicone, plant extracts, oils, and vitamins. But injections cause a lot of harm to health, so cosmetologists came up with the idea of applying the product directly to the surface of the face. Surprisingly, this also worked.
The cream is not only made from the same ingredients as the injection, but also has a similar principle of action. It only affects the skin from the outside, not from the inside.
Some experts argue that such a product does not affect the condition of the skin, but only visually makes wrinkles less noticeable. But even they confirm that it contains substances beneficial to the dermis.
Gels and serums
Fillers in the form of gels and serums have a lighter texture than cream. It is better to use them in the evening, before bed.

The main effect of filler creams
The product fills wrinkles, making them less deep and noticeable, which gives the face youth and freshness. This is the main task of the cream.
But there are a few more additional features:
- Returns tone to the dermis;
- Launches processes aimed at regenerating the epithelium;
- Makes skin tone more even and healthy;
- Extends the durability of cosmetics.
