DERMAL FILLER
As ageing occurs, our fat pads shrink and the bony structures of our face reduce – leading to sagging and loss of contour and volume, appearance of fine and deep wrinkle likes and folds, making us look and feel “tired” or “old”. This too is often caused by many factors including extrinsic and intrinsic influences such as sun damage and the body’s decreased ability to produce collagen and elastin.
Dermal fillers act by providing volume and support to affected areas.
This happens by hydrating and filling the defected area to give the face a smoother, youthful appearance. Dermal fillers are often used to give extra volume to areas such as lips and cheeks.
Our dermal fillers are of the highest quality, non-surgical, and a cost effective alternative to restoring and replicating the function of the naturally occurring hyaluronic acid. This restores fullness and volume to many different areas. Hyaluronic acid is the most common type of filler and is made from a substance that can be found naturally in the body. Hyaluronic acid attracts and draws in water which keeps the skin hydrated and plump.
Accompanied within most fillers is a local anaesthetic, this helps minimise the discomfort caused by the procedure as well as reducing pain afterwards.
Dermal fillers can address various signs of ageing on the face and body and are versatile in use. Common areas of use are:
-
Lip Augmentation – plumping and hydration for naturally thin or aged lips.
-
Facial Contouring - enhances cheek bones, chin and jawline contouring the face
-
Static lines – deep lines around the lips, nasolabial and marionette lines.
-
Tear troughs – adding volume to sunken cheeks and hollow eyes.
DISCLAIMER:
These treatments are not permanent, ongoing treatment is advised to maintain your result. Repeat consultations and sessions should be scheduled every 3 – 6 months.
Unlike antiwrinkle treatment, dermal fillers are immediate, meaning that clients will see the immediate benefit from the moment the procedure is performed. There are products available to dissolve fillers if necessary.
