Lip Filler
Lips are a focal feature of the face hence, lip fillers becoming hugely popular over recent years (with a little help from one very famous celeb). Using dermal fillers you can enhance the fullness of the lips, correct shape, create more definition to areas such as the cupids bow, and reduce the appearance of surrounding fine lines caused by ageing. This treatment usually lasts up to 6 months.

Cheek Filler
With the natural ageing process, we lose volume in our face creating a sagging or sunken look. Dermal filler can be used in two ways; firstly to replace the volume loss in the cheeks and create lift to reduce that sunken appearance, and secondly to create an appearance of high cheekbones giving a contoured more defined appearance to the face. This treatment usually lasts 12-18 months.

Nasolabial Folds
Often referred to as smile lines, the deep crease running from the corners of the nose to the edges of the mouth becomes deeper with ageing and volume loss. Dermal filler can be used to correct or soften these lines creating a smoother appearance to the skin and rejuvenating the face. This treatment usually lasts up to 12 months.
-
Marionette Lines
The lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin are more pronounced as we age and can make you appear to have a down-turned mouth or permanent frown. Dermal fillers can help to correct or reduce the appearance of these lines, taking away that “sad” look. This treatment can last up to 12 months.

Hand Rejuvenation

Temple Filler
Hollowing at the temple region can be a tell-tale sign of ageing and can give a skeletal appearance to the face.

This treatment lasts approximately 18 months.

Filler Brow Lift
A subtle lift in the lateral brow can make a real difference to the framing of the face. Dermal filler can be used to enhance the arch of the brow and open the lateral eye area for a fresher appearance.

Filler Dissolving
There are occasions when you might want to remove your hyaluronic acid fillers either because you are unhappy with how they look, or the filler has migrated outside of the intended area. Hyaluronidase can be used to inject into the area of filler to encourage it to break down and be metabolised. If desired the area can be refilled 2 weeks after dissolving.
FAQs
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable gels used to plump lips, soften facial lines, restore volume and revitalise the face.
The clear gel product contains a synthetic Hyaluronic Acid which is injected under the surface of the skin to add volume and hydration, softening lines and signs of ageing. As hyaluronic acid is naturally produced by our bodies, it is biodegradable and will naturally break down over a period of time.
How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?
The dermal filler used for your treatment will vary on the area being treated. Dermal fillers are broken down naturally by the body so each individual will metabolise the products at different rates. Generally, softer fillers used for areas such as lips can last up to six months whereas thicker consistencies used for areas such as cheek augmentation can last up to 18 months. Further information can be found under the specific treatment.
Are The Treatments Painful?
Dermal filler treatments are administered via injections, and may cause you some temporary discomfort. A cream is often used to assist in numbing the area prior to your treatment, and our high quality products combine a local anaesthetic with the hyaluronic acid for comfort during your procedure.
Can Anybody Have Dermal Fillers Treatments?
Dermal fillers are generally considered safe. However, you may not be able to have your treatment if you have broken or inflamed skin near the site of injection, a known allergy or sensitivity to the product or any of its ingredients, a condition which causes raised or excessive scarring or are pregnant or breastfeeding. You will have a consultation prior to your treatment at which time any concerns can be discussed.
Will I Need Time To Recover?
The beauty of non-surgical treatments such as dermal filler is the lack of recovery time required. Many clients experience minimal swelling and little to no bruising post treatment and are able to go about their daily activities as normal.
