Cosmetic treatments that are used to smoothens wrinkles or scars usually on the face by means of injecting are termed as Fillers. Lips can also be made fuller using such treatments. Filler raises or puffs up that area which is injected. The injections are given under the skin. The puffing goes away over time. There are many kinds of injectable fillers. Some of them are:

Hyaluronic acid (Restylane, Juvederm, Captique). The hyaluronic acid draws fluid to the treated area.
Bovine collagen (Zyplast, Zyderm). You need an allergy test 4 weeks before treatment.
Fat cells harvested from your body (autologous fat).
Man-made biodegradable polymer (Sculptra).
Calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse).
Microscopic plastic beads and bovine collagen (Artefill). The plastic beads are made of poly (methyl .methacrylate) (PMMA). The collagen goes away over time, but the plastic beads remain under the skin permanently.
