Dermal Filler Injections

diminish the most common signs of aging such as wrinkles and skin folds

Dermal fillers can replace lost volume to help smooth wrinkles, plump the lips, and restore a more youthful appearance.

How do you do it?

As we get older our bodies & face are affected and will change. Many conditions contribute to this, from the weather, sun damage, pollution, fatigue, hormone changes and also the natural aging process.

As a result of aging the skin’s natural moisture retaining hyaluronic acid also declines. This inevitable moisture loss causes the lines, folds and creases around the mouth, nose, jaw, cheeks and lips, giving us an older and more tired image.

What is involved?

Dermal Filler treatments offer patients a wide range of benefits, including a more youthful appearance. This treatment can be used to improve the appearance of moderate lines and wrinkles and is especially effective around the mouth, cheeks, jaw and nose.

Dermal fillers (hyaluronic acid) mimics the volume lost from the skin to achieve natural results. The filler is used to smooth out and fill lines. By replacing the volume in these areas, skin will appear smoother and feel softer, giving an overall more youthful look.
