DERMAL FILLERS FOR MID & LOWER FACE

Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers stimulate the skin’s natural collagen production, which is responsible for keeping skin looking buoyant. Our skin naturally loses collagen as it ages, so dermal fillers are a good option for keeping skin looking its best.

Treatments with dermal fillers restore volume to skin lines, depressions and hollows through the process of injecting dermal fillers to achieve a natural and toned look, which leaves skin looking fresher. Dermal fillers can be used to treat many areas of the face and address a range of concerns:

Cheeks: Lost volume in the mid-face can be restored, and can also help improve the contour and definition of the cheekbones which in turn support the lower face as a result.

Nasolabial folds: These lines can be filled to soften and smooth their appearance.

Marionette lines: Dermal fillers can be injected into the nose to chin lines to minimise their appearance.

Jawline and chin: Dermal fillers can enhance or replace lost volume in the jawline and chin, creating a more balanced facial profile.

Patients will notice results instantly after this treatment. The effects can last from 6 – 12 months depending on the quantity and position of filler. There is a risk of bruising from any treatment that involves injections.

Pain tolerance varies with each patient. We have a few options to help involving the use of topical or injectable anaesthetic, together with limiting the number of injections per treatment. This will be discussed in more detail at your consultation. We sometimes use a micro cannula technique which minimises the risk of bruising. This involves using a small sterile needle to pierce the skin and then a minute plastic tube to place the filler into the skin.

During your initial consultation, we will decide which injection technique will give you the safest and most effective treatment outcome.
