Question 1

What are Dermal Fillers?

Answer

Over time as our skin ages and loses its youthfulness. Many people become aware of wrinkles and lines that can age them, making them appear tired and less attractive. Dermal fillers are a regenerative treatment, which can define, restore and enhance the face while respecting the unique anatomy and character that makes you.

Question 2

What treatments can I have?

Answer

Dermal fillers are injected just under the skin to plump out lines and to add volume where needed. The dermal filler comprises of a gel made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body. This makes it a very safe product to use. Areas such as the cheeks, chin and jawline can be enhanced to create a contoured look. Volume can be added to the lips, cheeks or the under eye area. Deeper lines such as nose to mouth, mouth to chin and smoker lines can be dramatically softened. The results are instantly visible and generally last 6-9 months, sometimes longer and require no maintenance.

Question 3

Are there any side effects or risks?

Answer

There may be some redness, swelling and bruising after the treatment which can take a few days to resolve. Whilst dermal fillers are medically safe the treatment may not be not be suitable for certain patients. A full medical consultation will be carried out with the doctor to ensure the procedure is safe to carry out.
