Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a natural occurring biodegradable hyaluronic acid gel that flows easily into your skin via an injection, instantly filling out those troublesome lines, wrinkles, deep folds along with scars or dents in the face.
Dermal Filler Injections are also used to create volume to enhance lips, reshape the nose, sculpt the chin or define and plump out cheeks.
The result is the skin of the area treated becomes lifted, smoother and unwrinkled and the skin appears younger, offering a natural, rejuvenated look.

The procedure is generally pain free as a local anesthetic is applied to the treated area prior to the administration of the injections. Care is taken to make it as comfortable as possible.
As with all injections there may be some mild temporary discomfort and redness in the direct injection site, which subsides quickly.
How many treatments do I need?
One treatment is usually required to achieve the desired look. The selected dermal filler will determine the longevity of the results from 6 to 18 months.
Depending on the severity of the lines and wrinkles, Anti-wrinkle Injection may be recommended along with the Dermal Filler Injections as the filler can create volume in the crevices, but the botulinum toxin in the Anti-wrinkle Injection can stop the repetitive action which can cause the fine lines and wrinkles.
How quickly will I see the results of Dermal Fillers?
You will see results immediately after a single treatment.
Some dermal filler formulas provide further results over a few weeks as the product injected into the area forms a scaffold to support and stimulates the production of the body’s own collagen increasing further volume from within the skin.
