As lines, wrinkles and folds appear on your once youthful complexion, it’s normal for your confidence to be shaken. These signs of ageing are a result of losing collagen and elastin production. When we’re young, these two powerhouse proteins keep our skin firm, smooth and bouncing back into place. When collagen breaks down, it leaves weakened areas under the surface and our outer skin falls creating moderate to severe lines and folds.
What are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are used to fill and change the facial profile to a more youthful one.
During the ageing process, volume loss in the face is experienced by many people. Volume loss is caused by the decreased ability of the body to produce enough collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin allows the skin to return to it’s normal tight and plump state. Once volume is lost in the face, it can give you a hollow and sunken appearance.
Our aim is to restore volume and hydration in areas such as the cheeks and lips using filler specialised to each area. The use of fillers can restore the volume lost and enhance areas whilst still looking natural. Dermal fillers can also be used to fill deep folds and help to improve the appearance of scars, fine lines and creases.
The dermal fillers used contain Hyaluronic Acid, which is a naturally occurring sugar found in the human body, helping to keep our skin hydrated and looking more youthful.
What are my options?
Different areas of the face require a specific type of dermal filler, depending on the desired outcome, to ensure a great result and longevity is achieved.
In an area such as the lips, a soft product with a thinner consistency is our recommendation to ensure your result is complimentary, natural and subtle.
Dermal fillers are most effective when carried out in combination with wrinkle injections to reduce the signs of ageing.
See the image below to find out what areas can be treated with dermal fillers and the type of filler used.
Dermal fillers are made from a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid, a sugar our bodies naturally produce to keep our skin and connective tissues hydrated. The hyaluronic acid is suspended in a smooth and pliable gel. When these dermal fillers are used on the face, they actually attract moisture to the area, creating natural and dewy results. These cosmetic injectables can address an array of cosmetic concerns.

Nasolabial Folds
The crease or fold running down from the sides of the nose down to the corners of the mouth. Soften these deep lines with dermal filler to create a more youthful and harmonious appearance.
Lip Enhancement
Lips are a vital component of our appearance and expression. During the ageing process we lose volume in our lips and definition is reduced. Fillers can restore this, whilst considering the four factors that contribute to making lips attractive; border, symmetry, balance, and volume.
Cheeks
As we age our cheeks, also known as ‘malar fat pads’, loses volume giving a sunken appearance. Define your cheekbones and restore volume by providing shape, contour and definition to give you a youthful appearance.
Tear Trough
Volume loss and dark circles under the eye can make you look tired, older and sunken. Filler can reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollowing under the eyes whilst restoring hydration and smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.

Lip Lines
The vertical lines which appear above and around the lips, also known as “smoker’s lines”, give the appearance of aged skin. Using filler in this area adds fullness and restores volume for younger and plumper skin.
Corner of the Mouth
These lines can occur from the downwards pull of lower face muscles, which can make the face look sad and aged. Dermal filler can reduce the appearance of these lines, giving a more uplifted and youthful appearance.
Jaw Reshaping
The structure of the jaw line is enhanced with filler and can give a slimmer and more contoured look.
Jowls
The sagging of the jowls gives an aged appearance and is caused by a decrease in the production of collagen and elastin. The loss of volume causes fat pads to descend, creating jowls. Treatment in this area can help re-create a jawline and soften the appearance of sagging in the lower face resulting in youthful, plump-looking skin.
Chin
For some, the chin may appear small or hidden. Elongate the face by improving the size and shape of your chin with filler, as it adds volume in certain areas to make it protrude. This treatment can also address the crease between the lip and chin, referred to as the ‘mental crease’ by softening this line using a dermal filler.
