Dermal fillers are a versatile solution used in facial aesthetic treatments, injected into the skin to lift, contour, and add volume to both the face and certain areas of the body, such as the hands. They are highly effective for both anti-ageing and beautification purposes. Fillers can smooth out wrinkles, enhance facial features, and restore volume to areas affected by ageing. They work by boosting the skin’s supply of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps to retain moisture and add plumpness.
With the right type of dermal filler, the skin becomes smoother, reducing the appearance of mild to deep wrinkles, particularly in the mid and lower facial regions. Dermal fillers offer a non-surgical facelift option, known as the “liquid facelift,” to provide natural lifting and contouring results. The treatment typically lasts between 6 to 12 months and provides a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
The most common areas treated include:
• Nose to mouth lines (nasolabial folds)
• Marionette lines (either side of the mouth)
• Smokers’ lines (around the mouth)
• Glabella lines (between the eyebrows)
• Lips and philtrum column (adding volume and shape)
• Chin and jawline (to shape, define, and adjust the facial profile)
• Nose (to achieve a smoother, straight, or lifted nose profile)
• Liquid facelift/8-point facelift (to lift and fill areas where fat has depleted)
• Under eye-hollows/tear trough (which become deeper with age)
• Cheeks (for subtle beautification or to plump areas where fat loss has occurred)
