Abstract
The use of temporary fillers continues to grow as the understanding of restoring a youthful appearance expands. Improving the signs of aging using only surgical techniques has transitioned to treatment of soft tissue atrophy with volume replacement. Temporary fillers have given many patients a lower cost, less permanent introduction into optimizing their appearance at any age. In this article, we explore the history of temporary fillers and the current types that are available. We also highlight the expanding use of injectable fillers in the upper face and periorbital area. Copyright Cosmetic Dermatology 2012.
