INJECTABLE DERMAL FILLERS:SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION
Today’s fillers contain this naturally occurring hyaluronic acid to fill in wrinkles and lines and plump up cheeks and even hands, to provide immediate fullness while also helping the skin retain more moisture naturally so that the skin looks firmer and more resilient with a beautiful glow. There are many other reasons too why you might want to explore the option of fillers that are not necessarily age-specific: maybe you want to correct those deep under eye hollows or acne scarring. Maybe you don’t necessarily want to restore what was lost but would like to re-contour and define your features to achieve a more symmetrical, balanced appearance. Whatever your motivation may be, our experienced aesthetic dermatologists will take the time to understand fully the results you are hoping to achieve and design a customised treatment plan to make you look and feel your absolute, confident best.
There is an incorrect perception about fillers which has developed from the older, less refined way of tackling facial rejuvenation. This is what traditionally has – unfairly – given fillers such a bad name. Take the lines around your mouth, for example. A decade or so ago, filler was often injected into the nasolabial folds, or laugh lines, to literally fill the wrinkles themselves. These days, the goal is to plump and lift in other parts of the face for a more natural-looking result. As you age, your fat pads slide down, which makes the skin sag lower, causing deeper folds at the bottoms of your cheeks. The solution is no longer to “fill in” wrinkles, but to inject filler right near the cheekbone to restore fullness, which lifts the face, reducing the look of the smile lines in the process.
