Dermal Filler

These treatments are suitable for most people especially those looking to: • Reduce lines and wrinkles • Add volume or definition to features such as lips or cheeks • Define contours of the face • Rebalance symmetry or facial profile • Boost skin softness and suppleness for a more hydrated skin tone

Dermal fillers are very versatile treatments placed within the face to add volume, smooth the skin or reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The hyaluronic acid within the filler attracts water to the area, giving a more hydrated, glowing appearance to the skin.

We only use the latest generation of products from market leading brands such as Juvederm and Teosyal. Choice of product is made according to the treatment area and the desired effect.

Any injectable procedure carries some risk. We pride ourselves on delivering treatments as safely as possible and will always assess your treatment plan individually. You will only be recommended treatments that are safe and will work best for you. All treatment is carried out by a highly experienced fully registered doctor trained to manage any complications. Non surgical treatments are minimally invasive and therefore much safer than surgical alternatives. The products we use are rigorously tested and have a robust safety profile worldwide.

The results can last between 6-18 months depending on the area treated and the product used.

Most people will experience only minimal discomfort with these procedures. We will offer you numbing cream before your treatment and the filler products contain lidocaine (a local anaesthetic) which provides a more comfortable experience.

Treatment will always begin with a consultation to discuss what you'd like to achieve, a full medical history plus a facial analysis. We'll take some photos for your medical record and to allow us to assess your results. The treatment itself will take between 30-60 minutes and the results are immediate. Afterwards you may experience some numbness from the anaesthetic and the area may feel slightly swollen. Minor reactions such as swelling and redness are common and usually take 12-24 hours to settle. There is a small risk of bruising which can take a few days longer to resolve. We ask that you avoid exercise, alcohol and anti inflammatories on the day of your treatment.
