Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are soft tissue fillers that are injected into the skin at different depths to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve facial volume and augment facial features such as the nose and/or chin.
Dermal filler is a smooth injectable gel containing hyaluronic acid designed to replace the hyaluronic acid that is gradually lost during the process of ageing. fillers work almost instantly by boosting your skin’s supply of hyaluronic acid. This leads to added volume, reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles, and revitalised skin that offers a natural softer look. Additionally, dermal fillers also have a biological effect on your own hyaluronic acid by encouraging it to increase collagen and elastin production which improves skin integrity and quality.
Treatment Procedure
Before the procedure begins, we apply a topical anaesthetic cream to the areas that will be injected, to ensure the highest level of comfort for the patient. The procedure typically takes around 30 minutes to complete.
Dermal fillers are not permanent and the results are fully reversible. Results typically last between 6-18 months, depending on the type of filler used, the treated area and lifestyle factors.
