About Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a non-surgical injectable treatment to replace volume loss, contour and correct age-related changes. Dermal fillers main ingredient is Hyaluronic acid which is known for hydration and anti-ageing properties. This substance is naturally occurring in the skin and found in abundance in our youth and as we get older it starts to diminish. By restoring Hyaluronic Acid to areas of the face that has volume loss gives a nice natural look.
Results last from 6-18 months.
Areas treated can be cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, lips, lip lines and tear trough.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort is minimal during and after treatment. Topical anaesthetic cream is available, and the use of a cannula both help with comfort and minimise the risk of bruising.
