Dermal fillers along with other injectables such as botox are very popular anti-aging, and rejuvenating procedures today. They’re more trendy, fashionable, and more like a status symbol, now even in more demand than cosmetic surgery in many countries. Doctors also recommend them as a preferred choice as a non-surgical aesthetic procedure. There are several reasons for this popularity, some of them are listed below.
