DERMAL FILLERS
Dermal fillers are diverse, with tissue replacement fillers, stimulators, and permanent, semi-permanent, or temporary options based on composition and duration. Temporary hyaluronic acid-based fillers provide reversible and biodegradable effects, restoring skin volume for 8-12 months on average. The choice depends on individual needs and preferences. Dermal fillers are commonly used in facial aesthetics to restore and revolumise skin, addressing static lines, volume loss, and enhancing facial contours for a more youthful appearance. They are particularly suitable for areas such as lips, cheeks, jawlines, tear troughs and static facial lines.
ASSESSMENT
This includes a consultation with our team. Discussion of what you are concerned about and looking for. Then medical history and consent form completion.
TREATMENT
The procedure lasts 20-30 minutes. Topical local anaesthetic cream is applied 15 minutes prior to starting.
As a result there is very little discomfort.
RECOVERY
The majority of people require no downtime following these procedures and can return to work and normal activities the same day. Some minimal swelling and bruising may occur, lasting a few days.
RESULT
Results are seen immediately after treatment, with further improvements over 7 days as the filler integrates and hydrates the area. Results can be expected to last 8-12 months.
