Dermal Filler

Dermal fillers are injectable gels used to restore volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours. Most fillers made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin, helping to hydrate and plump targeted areas. Results are immediate and can last several months to years depending on the type of filler used.

Reduce signs of ageing, correct scars, enhance lips, and restore facial symmetry.

• Improves fine lines 
  Dermal fillers restore lost volume and reinforce the skin’s structure, effectively softening fine lines in common areas such as lip lines and other delicate facial contours.
• Restores facial volume
  Replenish lost fullness and counter the effects of aging for a naturally refreshed, more youthful look.
• Rebalance & contour
  Thicker dermal fillers can be used to refine facial proportions, enhancing areas like the cheeks, jaw, and chin for a more balanced, sculpted appearance.
• Plump & defined lips
  Enhance lip size, shape, and symmetry. Whether naturally small or reduced over time, precise injections restore volume in just half an hour, creating a fuller, more balanced appearance.

Filler is commonly used in specific areas to address volume loss, enhance contours, and create balance in facial features:

• Lips – To add volume, define shape, and smooth fine lines.
• Cheeks – To restore youthful fullness and lift.
• Jawline – To enhance definition and improve facial proportions.
• Chin – To improve projection, strengthen the profile, and enhance overall facial balance.
• Temples – To restore lost volume for a more balanced facial structure.
• Nasolabial Folds – To soften deep creases and maintain a smooth, natural look.

Dermal fillers provide instant results, with visible volume and contouring right after treatment. Their longevity depends on the type, injection site, and individual metabolism, typically lasting from several months to a few years. Areas with less movement tend to retain fillers longer, and touch-ups can help extend results. Over time, the body naturally metabolizes the filler, gradually softening and diminishing the effects

Filler migration occurs when injected filler shifts from its intended placement, sometimes resulting in unintended fullness in nearby areas.

While rare with a skilled injector, it can happen due to factors like filler type, injection technique, movement in the area, or excessive volume.

To minimize risks and achieve the best results, choosing an experienced provider is essential.

If you’re unhappy with your filler for any reason, hyaluronic acid-based options can be safely dissolved with hyaluronidase, restoring your natural features within days. While waiting a few weeks for the filler to settle is often recommended, dissolving remains a reliable solution.

When performed by a skilled professional, dermal fillers are generally safe, but like any cosmetic procedure, they come with risks. Most fillers, especially hyaluronic acid-based ones, are well-tolerated and can be dissolved if needed.

Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and redness, which typically resolve within days. More serious complications, though rare, can include infection, lumps, migration, or vascular issues if injected improperly.

Choosing an experienced injector and following proper aftercare significantly reduces risks.

If you’re considering fillers, it’s always best to consult a qualified professional to ensure safety and optimal results.
