As these structures thin down, the changing shape adds to the visible signs of aging – hollowing, sagging and retrusion.
By revolumising in and around the areas of loss, dermal filler can counter some of these aging signs and provide youthful impressions.
Hyaluronic acid is our filler molecule of choice and it is produced naturally in our bodies to support our cellular structure. Clever scientists have harnessed the abilities of hyaluronic acid to create a range of fillers that can be specified to each area.
Another benefit of hyaluronic acid is that it can be dissolved if needed.
Applications for dermal filler include lips, cheeks, chins and more.
I use the well regarded Restylane® range of fillers and you could reasonably expect 12 to 24 months of benefit.
More information on the Restylane® range can be found at restylaneusa.com
In addition to this cosmetic treatment, we offer a range of other services designed to enhance your appearance.
Restylane® is a Class III medical device containing hyaluronic acid (and sometimes lidocaine) used by professionals for facial wrinkles and lip enhancement, with associated risks. Side effects, such as swelling, pain, or bruising, may occur and last a few days, with rare, delayed inflammatory reactions possible. It should not be used in cases of allergies to the components, in patients on blood-thinners, or on compromised skin. The effect usually lasts 12-24 months.
