What Are Fillers and Dermal Fillers?

Fillers and Dermal Fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore volume and smooth out wrinkles in various areas of the face. Made from hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible materials, these fillers work by adding volume beneath the skin, helping to lift and contour your facial features naturally.

How Fillers Work:

  1. Consultation: Our practitioner will assess your facial structure and discuss your goals to determine the most suitable filler for your needs.
  2. Injection: The filler is carefully injected into targeted areas using fine needles or cannulas to achieve natural-looking results.
  3. Results: The results are typically visible immediately, with minimal downtime and long-lasting effects.

Pre-Care Recommendations for Dermal Filler

  • Stay hydrated and minimize excessive sun exposure in the days leading up to the treatment
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours before the dermal filler treatment

Common Treatment Areas

Fillers and Dermal Fillers are versatile and can be used to enhance various areas of the face:

  • Lips: Achieve fuller, more defined lips with fillers that enhance shape, volume, and symmetry.
  • Cheeks: Restore lost volume in the cheeks, creating a lifted and more youthful contour.
  • Nasolabial Folds: Smooth out the deep lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
  • Marionette Lines: Reduce the appearance of lines that extend from the corners of the mouth down toward the chin.
  • Under-Eye Hollows: Fill in the hollows under the eyes, reducing the appearance of dark circles and providing a refreshed look.
  • Chin and Jawline: Enhance the definition of the chin and jawline for a more sculpted facial profile.

What to Expect During Your Filler Treatment

  1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a consultation where our practitioner will assess your facial features and discuss your aesthetic goals. This ensures that the treatment plan is tailored to your needs.
  2. Procedure: The filler treatment typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the areas treated. A numbing cream may be applied to enhance comfort during the injections.
  3. Recovery: You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually resolves within a few days. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
  4. Results: The results of your filler treatment are visible immediately, with full effects becoming apparent as any swelling subsides. Depending on the type of filler used, the results last around 6 months.

Risks and Complications

As with any cosmetic procedure, there are inherent risks and potential side effects associated with dermal fillers:

  • Post-Treatment Discomfort: Mild swelling, redness, bruising, or discomfort at the injection site is common and typically resolves within a few days.
  • Infection: Although rare, there is a risk of infection following any injection-based treatment. Sterile techniques are always used to minimise this risk.
  • Allergic Reactions: Although uncommon, allergic reactions can occur and may require treatment.
  • Lumpiness or Granuloma Formation: In some cases, small lumps or granulomas may form under the skin.
  • Vascular Complications: In rare instances, if a blood vessel is inadvertently injected, it can lead to complications such as localised necrosis.

Our practitioners will discuss these risks with you in detail during your consultation to ensure you are fully informed before proceeding with treatment.

Post-Treatment Care

After your dermal filler treatment, it’s important to follow these guidelines to ensure optimal results and minimise any potential side effects:

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimise exposure of the treated area to excessive sun or UV lamps until any initial swelling or redness has subsided.
  • Cold Compress: If swelling occurs, applying a cold compress to the treated area can help reduce it.
  • Avoid Touching the Area: Refrain from touching or massaging the treated area unless directed by your practitioner.
  • Avoid Strenuous Exercise: For the first 24 hours after treatment, avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat exposure.
