Dermal Fillers: Restore Volume and Enhance Your Natural Beauty


What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles and enhance facial contours. Made from substances that naturally occur in the body, such as hyaluronic acid, dermal fillers provide a safe and effective way to achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance without surgery.

How Do Dermal Fillers Work?

Dermal fillers are injected beneath the skin's surface to add volume and fullness. The type of filler and the specific treatment area determine the depth and method of injection. By filling in wrinkles, lines and hollow areas, fillers help to smooth the skin and enhance facial features.


Common Treatment Areas:

  • Lips: Enhance volume, define shape and smooth lip lines.
  • Cheeks: Restore lost volume and contour the cheekbones.
  • Nasolabial Folds: Fill in deep lines running from the nose to the mouth.
  • Marionette Lines: Reduce lines running from the corners of the mouth to the chin.
  • Jawline and Chin: Improve contour and definition.
  • Under-Eye Hollows: Fill in tear troughs to reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollows.
  • Hands: Rejuvenate hands by adding volume and reducing the appearance of veins and tendons.


Benefits of Dermal Fillers:

  • Instant Results: Noticeable improvement immediately after treatment.
  • Non-Surgical: Minimally invasive with little to no downtime.
  • Natural-Looking Enhancement: Enhances your natural features subtly.
  • Versatile Applications: Effective for various facial areas and concerns.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Depending on the filler type, results can last from 6 months to 2 years.


What to Expect During and After Filler Treatment:

  • During the Procedure: A fine needle or cannula is used to inject the filler into the targeted areas. The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes. Discomfort is minimal and a topical anaesthetic may be used to enhance comfort.
  • After the Procedure: Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur but usually resolves within a few days. You can resume normal activities immediately. It’s important to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for 24-48 hours after treatment.
