Dermal Filler

Everyone's skin ages differently and dermal filler may be used to rejuvenate multiple problem areas, from smile lines to vertical lip lines, you can smooth away unwanted wrinkles and restore natural contours.

Treatment with dermal filler is an easy, non-surgical option to instantly enhance your looks.

The dermal filler consists of a sterile gel and contains non-animal stabilised hyaluronic acid - a substance found naturally in the body.

Hyaluronic acid holds water, giving volume to the skin. However, as we age, our natural production of hyaluronic acid diminishes. A simple injection of hyaluronic acid can replenish the lost volume and improve your appearance by creating fuller, more defined lips and smoothing out folds and wrinkles. It may be used for;

• Lip enhancement and definition

• Facial contouring

• Smoothing wrinkles and folds throughout the face

There are a few hyaluronic acid based products, all with varying levels of viscosity to suit specific treatment programs and skin needs. The treatment lasts, on average six months depending on your body's ability to degrade the product. Filler injections show instant results to restore your youthful appearance with minimal recovery time.

The side effects with the hyaluronic acid treatment are usually temporary and localised to the area of injection. They may include bruising, redness, swelling or tenderness.
