What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers help to restore facial volume and smooth out lines. Composed of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin, they work by hydrating and plumping the treated areas. These fillers are effective in enhancing facial contours, reducing signs of aging, and improving overall facial aesthetics. Minimally invasive, their results are temporary yet can last several months to a couple of years, depending on the product used and area treated.

What areas can Dermal Fillers be used for?

Dermal fillers are versatile cosmetic treatments used to enhance various facial areas. Commonly, they're applied to plump lips, soften wrinkles and fine lines, and restore volume to cheeks. By targeting these specific areas, dermal fillers provide a more youthful and refreshed look, subtly enhancing natural facial features while maintaining a balanced and harmonious appearance.

What does the procedure entail, and is it painful?

The procedure involves injecting small amounts of filler into the skin using a fine needle, typically taking 15-30 minutes. While the procedure might cause some discomfort, the pain is generally minimal and numbing cream will be applied to the area prior. Results are visible immediately and after care is simple.
