By supporting the skin’s supply of hyaluronic acid, dermal fillers can help add volume to the skin and soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles, for a natural, softer look. Dermal fillers are a soft injectable gel made from stabilised, non-animal hyaluronic acid. The gel is tissue-friendly and closely resembles the hyaluronic acid that occurs naturally in the body. It is long-lasting but not permanent.
Dermal filler treatment offers a way to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, smooth the skin, and support a more youthful appearance. Results are often visible soon after treatment and typically last around 6 to 9 months, though this varies between individuals. Dermal filler treatment can provide a natural-looking result that aims to preserve facial expression. As your face changes over time, dermal fillers may allow you to adjust your look subtly as you age.
Dermal fillers can be used to help smooth facial lines and wrinkles, add fullness to the lips, shape facial contours such as the cheeks and chin, and revitalise the skin.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE WITH DERMAL FILLERS
- Please be aware of signs of vascular occlusion, including immediate blanching of the skin (paleness, tissue turns white). The skin may become dusky or discoloured with a bluish tint with fine reticulations (lace-like pattern). This can often occur away from the actual injection site and is often associated with pain. If this occurs, please contact us immediately and DO NOT DELAY. If the clinic is closed, then please get in touch with your local Hospital Emergency department ASAP
- If you have a history of cold sores, then we advise taking anti-viral medication prior to the treatment
- Avoid wearing swimming goggles if you have cheek or tear trough fillers for two weeks
- Lumps under the skin are regular post-treatment and can be assessed during your follow-up appointment.
