DERMAL FILLERS

ABOUT DERMAL FILLERS

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance within the body which is found in the deep layers of the skin known as the dermis, and one of its functions is to keep skin smooth and healthy by helping it retain water. As we age, our skin starts to produce less Hyaluronic Acid, leading to it becoming dry and thin. Natural lines and wrinkles deepen; lips lose their fullness; lines appear around the mouth and nose area, and cheeks lose volume giving them a sunken and hollow appearance.

Adding moisturiser with Hyaluronic Acid may provide a short-term effect; however, Hyaluronic Acid facial fillers truly get moisture deep under the skin. Since facial fillers are injected into the skin, the Hyaluronic Acid integrates into deeper layers of the skin, working from within to attract water and restore volume. Our dermal fillers re-introduce Hyaluronic Acid under the skin to where it is needed and actually ‘fill’ in lines and wrinkles, for a smooth result which can last up to 18 months, when your body will gradually break down the filler and the effects will fade.

PROCEDURE TECHNIQUE

Dermal filler treatments can be very quick and effective and have minimal impact on your time. It commonly take about 20 – 40 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated. Your face will be cleaned, and a topical numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area for approximately 15 minutes to minimise discomfort during the treatment. The most common areas treated are: Lips, Cheeks, Marionettes and Nasolabial folds.​

HOW QUICKLY WILL I NOTICE RESULTS?

You will see instant results after your Dermal Filler treatment.

Post treatment there may be some tenderness, redness and swelling to the site, this is very normal and will subside, usually within a few days.
