MANILA, Philippines — Fillers have been an anti-aging staple for decades. A great compliment to other injectables such as botox, fillers can turn the clock back a few years by filling in wrinkles, adding volume to areas that appear sunken, and when strategically placed, giving the face an overall lift.
Fillers are typically made with Hyaluronic Acid, a soluble material that fills in small crevices and areas as an implant typically would, but will eventually break down and be released from the body naturally.
If you would want to maintain the look fillers gave you, you would usually have to come in and get a refill every four to 12 months. It’s considered temporary reshaping or temporary filling of all the areas that need a bit of a lift.
Today, fillers have advanced far beyond just giving a temporary lift. Newer fillers, such as Calcium hydroxylapatite, now also have collagen-stimulating properties. They are called collagen stimulators.
With these newer fillers, we supplement the implantation of a foreign substance that creates volume by signaling the body to create more collagen as the foreign substance dissolves and exits the body. This means that as the filler dissolves, collagen produced by our own bodies take over, extending the results way beyond the life expectancy of the filler substance.
Aesthefill: The Lumi Skin Ultra BioStim
Aesthefill is the newest filler and biostimulator of collagen in current existence that is FDA-approved to be safe for aesthetic use. It is even more advanced than Calcium hydroxylapatite or other collagen stimulators, and is now made up of FDA-approved PDLLA or Poly-D L-Lactic Acid, a form of Poly-Lactic Acid that’s biodegradable and biocompatible.

Strengthening the skin: Aside from collagen stimulating, Aesthefill is also considered a skin-strengthening filler. The acceleration of fibrous protein regeneration is what makes it special. The skin is gradually strengthened and fortified. This makes the filler perfect for treating wrinkles caused by aging.
- A more natural look: Aesthefill relies less on the solution’s capability to create volume and fill areas, but simply allows the body to begin supplementing the volume on its own. It is almost like a treatment for the body to heal itself, versus a band-aid solution that will only temporarily add volume.
- Aesthefill lasts longer: It does not show much immediate effects, as the actual substance only lasts in the body for about a week. Over time, or a period of approximately six weeks, the body itself creates the volume, one that effectively lasts for about two years.
