22 Jun Lip Filler

Dermal Filler is a sterile gel consisting of non-animal, stabilised hyaluronic acid and a local anaesthetic called lidocaine. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar chain molecule, naturally occurring in the skin and throughout the body.

The sterile gel is injected into the skin to correct facial lines, wrinkles and folds, for lip enhancement, for shaping facial contours including chin, cheeks, jawline and the nose and for skin rejuvenation.

One of the reasons injectable hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are increasingly popular is their ability to add volume and decrease wrinkles with a single visit to the doctor.

Results typically last for up to one year, depending on the location of the injection.

Dermal fillers are formulated to treat your cheeks, lips, chin and temple area as well as the sections on the side of your nose and around your mouth. Juvederm, Revolax and Restylane are types of dermal fillers. Some fillers treat specific areas of your face better than others.

You will experience minor discomfort during the injection of fillers. But most fillers are viscous so when they are injected they stretch the skin causing injection pain.
