WHAT ARE DERMAL FILLERS?
Dermal fillers are gels injected beneath the skin’s surface to smooth wrinkles and add volume and contour.
HOW DO THEY WORK ?
The products are composed of stabilized hyaluronic acid (HA) which occurs naturally in the cells of the skin.
It helps hydrate and adds volume to the skin. It is naturally broken down by our own bodies.
WHAT DOES THE PROCEDURE ENTAIL ?
The procedure is simple and straight-forward, involving a few tiny injections directly into the skin, and takes between 15–30 minutes.
HOW SOON WILL THE RESULTS BE SEEN AND HOW LONG WOULD THEY LAST ?
Results are seen instantly after the treatment, although this gradually improves over the course of the following 2–4 weeks.
Results can last between 9–18 months although results can be maintained over a long period of time through regular repeated treatments.
ARE THESE FILLERS SAFE ?
In general, dermal fillers are considered very safe. The most common reactions are redness, swelling, bruising, itching, and tenderness which subsides within1-7 days.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a substance which occurs naturally in the cells of the skin, thus there is a very rare risk of allergic reactions.
Even people with food sensitivities can receive these fillers safely.
WHAT AREAS CAN DERMAL FILLERS BE USED FOR ?
- To replace the volume and contour lost from the face and restore the structural support, giving a more youthful appearance.
- The lips are injected to improve their shape, size, symmetry and proportion.
- An underdeveloped chin or nose may be injected to make it appear more projected and proportionate.
- Resculpting of the jaw line by lessening the effect of sagging.
All cases are done by our dermatologist Dr. Veenu Jindal.
