If you’re looking for a non-surgical way of rejuvenating your skin, dermal fillers are a popular option, yielding predictable results.

A versatile treatment, dermal fillers can add volume to eliminate wrinkles, hydrate the skin, and enhance shallow contours. By replenishing the hyaluronic acid levels in the skin, dermal fillers improve your complete facial aesthetic, helping you to love the skin you’re in again. Dermal fillers have the potential to last up to 9 months, depending on how regularly you have treatment.

What happens to your skin as your age?

Skin is the biggest organ in the body and goes through a lot during our lifetimes. When skin is young, it’s abundant in a substance called hyaluronic acid, which helps skin cells survive longer. Around about the age of 30, our skin starts to lose its elasticity and volume, as its supply of hyaluronic acid begins to diminish. Dermal fillers replace the level of hyaluronic acid to specific areas of the skin, making them a natural answer to ageing and the effects of lifestyle factors like smoking and sun exposure.

What should I expect from treatment with dermal fillers?

Firstly, we will ask you a few general questions about your health and what you’re looking to achieve with treatment. This allows us to draw up a tailored plan, targeting the areas of your skin you’re unhappy with. Dermal fillers can address areas like:

Under-eye (tear trough)

• Cheeks
• Nose to mouth lines
• Lips and smoker’s lines
• Nose
• Augmentation and shaping of the chin
• Jawline

The fillers are applied using a very fine needle or cannula and should not cause any pain or discomfort.

What makes dermal fillers so great?

• Improve facial symmetry: smoothening deep wrinkles and adding volume to targeted areas of the skin to improve the harmony across your facial aesthetic.
  Youthful-looking and healthy skin: dermal fillers restore your skin to look younger and healthier.
• Natural solution to improving your skin: dermal fillers replace the hyaluronic acid in your skin, which is a natural substance found in the body. Over time, the body breaks the fillers down safely and naturally.
• No recovery period associated: you won’t have to take time off work for treatment, and you can resume your normal activities as soon as you leave the practice. We may recommend that you avoid certain cosmetic products for a few days afterwards.
