Dermal Fillers

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are a popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours, and smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. Composed of substances like hyaluronic acid (HA), which naturally occurs in the body, these fillers provide a safe and effective way to achieve a youthful, rejuvenated appearance. They are commonly used to enhance areas such as the cheeks, lips, jawline, and under-eye hollows, providing natural-looking results.

How Do They Work?

Dermal fillers work by injecting a gel-like substance beneath the skin to add volume, smooth lines, or enhance facial features. Depending on the type of filler used, they can provide immediate results by plumping up the skin or work gradually to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. The procedure is relatively quick, with minimal discomfort, and can be tailored to achieve your specific aesthetic goals.

Why Consider Dermal Fillers?

As we age, our skin loses its youthful fullness due to a natural decline in collagen, elastin, and fat. Dermal fillers are an effective way to address these concerns, offering a non-permanent solution that can be customised to your needs. They can help smooth deep lines, add definition to facial features, and restore a youthful contour to the face. The effects of dermal fillers typically last from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the product used and the area treated.

What to Expect During Treatment

The treatment process is straightforward and usually takes less than 30 minutes. After a consultation to discuss your goals and determine the best filler for your needs, the injections are carefully administered to the targeted areas. You may experience slight redness or swelling, which typically subsides within a few days. The results are natural and subtle, ensuring you look refreshed and rejuvenated, not “overdone.”

Is It Right for You?

If you’re considering dermal fillers, a consultation with a qualified GP and Cosmetic Physician is the first step.
