Question 1

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are substance/gels injected beneath the skin’s surface to smooth wrinkles and add volume and contour. The products are composed of stabilised hyaluronic acid (HA) which occurs naturally in the cells of the skin, drawing in water to reduce the wrinkled area.

Question 2

Are dermal fillers safe?

Yes. Dermal fillers are very safe and have been used for over a decade. We use only products with proven safety record. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a substance which occurs naturally in the cells of the skin, thus there is no risk of allergic reactions.

Question 3

What areas can dermal fillers be used for?

Accepted Answer

Dermal fillers target areas of the face which lose volume and contour as we age (i.e. cheeks, lips, chin and nose). Dermal fillers may be used to replace this volume loss and restore the structural support, giving the patient a more youthful appearance.

Question 4

What does a dermal filler procedure entail?

Question 5

Are dermal fillers painful?

It can be painful if the procedure is carried out by an injector who is not properly trained. Typically, dermal filler procedures require no anesthetic as the dermal filler contains local anesthetic. The procedure will vary from person to person depending on your requirements and the severity of the wrinkles being treated.

How soon will I see results from dermal fillers and how long do they last?
