Service Description
WHAT DOES THE DERMAL FILLER INVOLVE? The procedure takes around 60minutes and patients can expect to notice the effects for as long as 12 months after treatment. There is even precedence of results lasting up to 18months in some cases, however, treatment with fillers is completely reversible. With any injectable treatment, there can be some slight bruising or swelling that accompanies it. This should not persist much longer than a day, and is easily coverable with makeup. PROCEDURE TIME 60minutes BACK TO WORK Immediately ON SET OF RESULTS Immediate DURATION OF RESULTS 12-18 months POSSIBLE RISKS Possible mild injection-site swelling and bruising WHO WOULD THIS TREATMENT SUIT? Facial fillers can be used on a wide range of patients, and are primarily used for skin rejuvenation and the reduction of lines and wrinkles. Other suitable candidates are those seeking to add structure and volume to the face. I see a lot of patients who have lost volume in their face due to living a very active, high impact lifestyle (such as runners). Fillers help to restore the volume loss that naturally begins to occur when we reach our late thirties, and in turn gives a fresher, brighter appearance. WHO SHOULD AVOID THIS TREATMENT? There is no known risk to those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, but we would advise against having treatment under these circumstances. WHAT RESULTS DOES THE TREATMENT AIM TO PROVIDE? The results should be subtle, leaving our friends and family believing that we are simply looking our best and great for our years. Treatment lasts between 6 - 12 months but, naturally, towards the end of this period the effects begin to gradually soften, so there is no dramatic change. When the effects begin to soften, we aim to ‘top up’ the treatment.Patients will often come in to the clinic and point to a specific line that they don’t like. Good practitioners shouldn’t just look at treating this specific line, but will look beyond it to how the face looks as a whole, since treating an individual line could make the patient look unnatural. Sometimes the patient will say that people tell them they look sad, tired or grumpy when this isn’t really the case. In these instances, it’s usually not a single line that is causing this impression but multiple factors and the practitioner should discuss treatment options with the patient.
