Dermal fillers

Over time, skin loses its natural abundance of hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurring substance found in the skin.

In addition, facial lines can result from repetitive facial movement in skin that has been damaged and has lost collagen and elastic tissue.

Dermal fillers (Hyaluronic acid gel and calcium hydroxyapatite) are identical to natural substances in the body which means they are very safe. They are used to create a softer and more youthful appearance.

Types of Hyaluronic acid gel used in the clinic include Restyalane, Juvederm and Belotero products. Collagen has also made a comeback with very low allergy potential.

Folds and wrinkles can be smoothed out, lips can be enhanced to achieve a fuller and more sensuous look, the cheeks and chin can be given a fuller shape and the hands, neck, and cleavage can also be made smoother.

The results are visible instantly and can last (dependent on the areas treated) for up to twelve months.
