Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are a non-surgical treatment used to treat facial lines, volume loss or enhance facial features.
There are two main categories of treatment with dermal fillers:

1. Treatments for signs of facial aging. As the face ages there are changes to the texture of the skin and volume loss in underlying structures. These changes result in formation of rhytids (wrinkles or lines), lip wrinkles, flattening across the cheek area, nasolabial lines, marionette lines and other changes to the frame of the face.

Dermal fillers can be used to treat and improve the cosmetic appearance of many aging features. There is a range of dermal fillers available and the most appropriate depends on the area you want treated.

2. Treatments to enhance or balance natural facial features: Lip enhancement, cheek enhancement or non surgical rhinoplasty are examples of these types of treatment. This can be about correcting asymmetry or cosmetically enhancing features.

Treating Signs Of Facial Aging With Dermal Fillers

Dermal Fillers are principally used for wrinkles, lines and grooves in the lower face. Common upper face rhytids such as eye wrinkles, frown and forehead lines are more effectively treated with muscle relaxing injections.

Combinations of dermal fillers and muscle relaxing injections can be used and our Doctors will explain how each treatment works so you can make an informed decision on what is an appropriate treatment for your concerns.

Dermal Fillers For Natural Enhancement

There are a number of areas on the face that people seek treatment to enhance their natural features.

1. Lip Enhancement: To treat asymmetry or for fuller more defined lips.
2. Non surgical Rhinoplasty: to camouflage bumps, increase the bridge or to correct asymmetry.
3. Cheek enhancement: to enhance the mid face frame and augment the appearance of cheekbones.
4. Chin enhancement: To balance the appearance of the lower face by enhancement of the chin.
5. Tear Trough Fillers: to reduce the appearance of dark circles.

What Is Involved With A Dermal Filler Treatment?

At your first appointment our Doctors perform a full face assessment and explain what treatment options are available. Your Doctor will discuss what to expect from the treatment including realistic expectations from treatment, possible side effects, how long each treatment lasts and be able to give an accurate quote.

  • Dermal fillers are injected into the area of volume loss or rhytid (wrinkle/line) formation. The results are immediate.
  • It is best to time the procedure so you do not have important events coming up in case of bruising or swelling.
  • Dermal Fillers are not permanent, the time it lasts depends on product used, where it is placed and individual factors.
  • Cost Range For Dermal Fillers

    There is wide variation in the cost depending on the condition being treated, the product used and the amount of product required. It is not possible to give an estimate so it is best to come for your free consultation with one of our Doctors. There is no obligation with the assessment.
