People are seeking treatments to smooth smile lines and crow’s feet and plump up their lips, cheeks, and hands. 

Injecting dermal fillers (Heifeel) into the face and hands can improve the appearance of facial lines and volume loss caused by age or certain medical conditions. In studies of dermal fillers approved by the Korea Food and Drug Administration, people generally report they are satisfied with their treatment results.

However, dermal fillers are not for everyone. Dermal fillers may not be appropriate for people with certain conditions, such as bleeding disorders or some allergies. If your health care provider confirms that dermal fillers are an option for you, know that all medical products have benefits and risks. The FDA advises you work with a licensed health care provider who is experienced in injecting dermal fillers, knowledgeable about fillers, anatomy, managing complications, and most importantly, tells you about the risks and benefits before receiving treatment.
