Both hyaluronic acid (HA) and calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) fillers offer fantastic options for smoothing wrinkles and restoring volume. Here’s the key distinction:
- Ingredient:
- HA fillers: Made of a substance naturally found in our skin, attracting water for hydration and plumping.
- CaHA fillers: Composed of tiny calcium particles suspended in a gel, stimulating collagen production.
- Pros and Cons:
- HA Fillers: Versatile, reversible with hyaluronidase, multiple softness/thickness options.
- CaHA Fillers: Can last longer than some HA fillers, good for volume and structural support.
- Best Uses:
- HA fillers: Widely used for lips, cheeks, under-eyes, lines, and most areas.
- CaHA: Excellent for cheeks, jawline, hands, and areas needing major lifting.
A consultation at AIVI Aesthetics Agoura Hills will help determine the ideal filler type based on your goals and desired results!
