Dermal Fillers are various types. The most common types are made of Hyaluronic acid, a gel like substance that draws water. This is the most commonly used non-surgical treatment in conjunction with the neuromodulators to treat the deep wrinkles, Age related facial volume loss, thinning of lips etc. This is the best tolerated procedure in seeing instant results for lost volume restoration for a well-rested look and to reverse early signs of aging.

How does it Feel to get the treatment?

It is a very quick and relatively well tolerated procedure. You will be receiving numbing in areas that are sensitive. The results are almost instantaneous, and you will notice a fuller, more plump appearance in the treatment area. You may experience some temporary swelling, tenderness and bruising immediately after but it usually starts to resolve after 2-3 days. The compound retains water molecules and gives a naturally nourished and hydrated appearance to the skin. The risks are usually reduced by thorough history and questionnaire by our medical team and not injected for patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive. Rarely it may cause allergic reactions, swelling lasting longer than 3 -4 days, temporary bruising depending on the patient. To know if you are a safe candidate for the treatment please book a complimentary Consultation with our physician today.
