DERMAL FILLERS
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are a non-invasive treatment to add volume and structure to your face. They add fullness and help to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, depressions and scarring by enhancing your natural features and shape of your face.
-
As we age, we start to lose volume in certain areas of the face which can make us look tired and sunken. This is caused by the body’s decreased ability to produce collagen and elastin, and loss of fat. Unlike wrinkles which require muscle relaxants to soften them, facial volume and folds require a dermal filler to help re-volumise and hydrate the area.
-
Dermal filler formulas are based on sugar molecules which our bodies naturally produce. The main function of these molecules is to bind water to lubricate and act as a shock absorber to moveable parts of the body such as joints. Importantly, it also works to manage water balance in your skin. Once injected, the formula works to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, contour the face, making it look plump, firm as well as hydrating and revitalising your skin. And the best benefit? Results are instant – in just 30 to 60 minutes, you will see the difference!
-
A thorough consultation is very important to identify if the dermal filler is appropriate for you, which product should be used and to identify a realistic outcome for treatment.
Justine at The Hills Cosmetic Studio will provide a comprehensive consultation to ensure that Dermal fillers are appropriate for you. From there you will receive the appropriate treatment to help you regain your confidence and look your best with subtle and natural results.
-
The treatment takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes. You potentially may experience some swelling, bruising and tenderness for a few days after the treatment.
