Dermal Fillers consist of Hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally present in the skin that provides volume, shape, hydration, and elasticity.
Over time, the amount of Hyaluronic acid in the skin diminishes, leading to a loss of firmness and fullness. Dermal Fillers offer a fast and efficient solution to restore facial volume and diminish wrinkles, resulting in a rejuvenated, youthful look.
Additionally, fillers can be used to enhance the lips by adding volume and contour, as well as defining the cheeks, chin, and nose.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Typically used in the lower half of the face, dermal fillers are commonly applied to the following areas:
• Nasal bridge between nose and lips
• Nasiolabial folds at the sides of the mouth (produced by smiling)
• Marionette lines under the mouth
• Border of the lips and into the lips (to enhance, volumise and define)
• Chin
• Cheeks
The fillers add volume to the skin, which helps to plump it up and create a smooth, wrinkle-free appearance. They are also effective in filling out moderate to severe folds and lines that develop with aging.
After treatment, the results are immediate, leaving the skin looking smoother and more youthful. Most patients need just one session, with results typically lasting 9-12 months. At our Cheshire clinic, we provide a follow-up consultation two weeks after the treatment to ensure the desired outcomes are achieved. If necessary, additional top-up treatments can be administered, which may incur extra charges.
Small amounts of filler gel are injected just below the skin’s surface with a fine needle into areas of the face where wrinkles and lines are present. To minimize discomfort, a local anaesthetic cream can be applied beforehand.
You may experience minimal discomfort, but this can be alleviated with anaesthetic. The anaesthetic can be included in the filler itself or applied topically to specific areas.
At Skyn Doctor, we believe in a “less is more” approach, aiming for subtle results that enhance your natural features. We use only top-quality Dermal Fillers that meet European standards and regulations, tailoring each treatment to your unique needs.
