Dermal Fillers: On-Label Uses
Dermal fillers, also known as injectable implants, are medical device implants approved by the FDA for use in helping create a smoother more youthful appearance. FDA advises working with a licensed healthcare provider who is experienced in injecting dermal fillers and knowledgeable about fillers, anatomy, and managing complications.
The FDA has approved dermal fillers for use in adults over the age of 22 years for moderate to severe facial wrinkles and skin folds, the correction of contour deficiencies (i.e. wrinkles), and for cosmetic augmentation to the cheeks, chin, jawline, lips, perioral lines, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and tear trough (undereye hallowing).
To obtain FDA approval or indication for a treatment area, the manufacturer must prove safety and efficacy through pre-clinical data and clinical trials.
