Dermal fillers
Dermal fillers
If you start experiencing lines and wrinkles around the mid face, sagging or loss of volume, delicate and precise placement of dermal fillers would help restore and smooth out the fine lines and folds.
What are dermal fillers ?
Dermal fillers are injections containing hyaluronic acid in a unique cross linking gel matrix.
Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in our skin that helps provide fullness, hydration and elasticity.
With age, hyaluronic acid starts to decrease, causing skin to lose volume and therefore increasing wrinkles and lines to appear.
Where can fillers be placed ?
The most common areas where patients concerns are :
- Nose-to-mouth lines (nasiolabial folds) commonly known as smile lines.
- Mouth to chin lines (marionette lines) that can make you look ‘sad’.
- Cheeks, chin, jaw and lips are also other areas where fillers can be placed
What about Forehead lines?
Unfortunately, there is a high risk of placing fillers directly into the forehead region, therefore the best option would be either placement of anti-wrinkle injections ( Botox) to relax the muscles causing the lines, and/or skinboosters are a great way to reduce these lines around high risk zones, along with very good skincare regime!
How long do results last?
Results are immediate and can last up to 6-9months.
