Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours, and smooth out lines and wrinkles. They are made from a soft, gel-like substance that closely mimics the body’s natural hyaluronic acid, a molecule responsible for keeping the skin hydrated and plump.
As we age, collagen, elastin, and fat stores gradually deplete, leading to sagging skin, hollowness, and more visible folds. Dermal fillers work by replenishing these losses, instantly restoring youthful structure and balance to the face.
Unlike skin boosters, which focus on skin quality, dermal fillers are used to reshape, contour, and volumise specific features while maintaining a natural appearance.
Dermal fillers are versatile and can address a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including:
Dermal fillers are suitable for adults who want to restore or enhance facial features in a natural way. You may be a good candidate if you experience:
Volume loss in areas such as the cheeks, temples, or lips
Deepening lines and folds that make you look tired or aged
Desire for subtle contouring or enhancement (e.g. sharper jawline, balanced chin, fuller lips)
Hollowing or shadows under the eyes
Hands that appear thin, veiny, or aged
A thorough consultation will be carried out to discuss your medical history, assess your goals, and design a personalised treatment plan.
A series of small injections are placed strategically into the chosen areas using fine needles or cannulas. The filler integrates with your natural tissue to restore shape and volume.
Most dermal fillers contain a local anaesthetic to minimise discomfort. A topical numbing cream can also be applied before treatment.
The procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes depending on the number of areas being treated.
Often only a single session is required for visible results. Top-up sessions may be performed to maintain or fine-tune the outcome.
Improvements are immediate, with final results settling within 1–2 weeks. Depending on the product and treatment area, results usually last between 9 and 18 months.
