Introduction
Young skin is smooth and elastic and contains
a large amount of naturally occurring Hyaluronic acid that
helps the skin look healthy. As we get older, the ability
of the skin to produce this acid decreases and the amount
in the skin begins to fall.
As a result, our skin and lips start to lose
volume, and our face starts to feel the effects of gravity.
Now there is a natural, non-animal and non-surgical solution
for smoothing facial folds and giving the lips a fuller, more
sensuous form.
Dermal filler, is a crystal-clear, biodegradable
gel made from the same Hyaluronic acid that naturally occurs
in the skin. The gel is injected in tiny amounts with a very
fine needle resulting in natural looking and immediate results
that refresh our appearance and involve NO DOWN TIME.
Where can Dermal Filler Be used?
• Lips to add volume and improve definition
• Facial lines
• Facial folds such as Naso-Labial folds (lines between
angle of mouth and nose)
What does Dermal Filler Treatment involve?
• An injection just below the skin’s
surface
• Local anaesthetic cream or injections are often applied
first
How long does Dermal Filler Treatment last?
Regular Hyaluronic acid usually lasts between
6 to 9 months, depending on skin type, lifestyle and skin
maintenance. Long acting Hyaluronic acid usually lasts between
9 to 12 months.
Do I need skin test?
No. As Dermal filler is non-animal based,
you do NOT need a skin test prior to its application.
Are the any side effects?
• Side-effects may include some swelling,
redness and occasional bruising which usually disappear within
a couple of days
• Most people resume their daily routine immediately
after treatment
