What is a Facial Filler?

It is a substance which is injected into the skin to ‘lift and fill in’ facial lines and creases, temporarily restoring its youthful and plumped-up appearance.

The results can be quite stunning and take years off you in a single stroke.

Where can it be used?

Facial fillers can be used to create fuller, more sensuous lips and fill in:

• Scars
• Deep facial wrinkles
• Creases and furrows
• Sunken cheeks
• Skin depressions

Who can use Facial Fillers?

Facial Fillers are equally effective on men and women. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for patients with a history of neuromuscular disease, or who are currently taking aminoglycoside antibiotics or penicillamine. If you have a special event coming up, have the treatment beforehand so that your skin has time to settle down.

How long is the procedure?

• From a few minutes to an hour.
• You may be required to come in 1 hour earlier for the application of anesthetic cream.

After the procedure:

• No bandaging is required.
• Normal activities can be resumed.
• You are free to eat, drink and wear makeup with sunscreen protection immediately after the treatment.

Are there any side effects?

• The treated area may feel a little red, tender and swollen, but these will wear off after a few days.
• Occasionally, some people may have an allergic reaction to the treatment, developing itchy and slightly puffy skin.
• People who are prone to cold sores may get one afterwards.

How soon can I expect to see the effects?

Most often, immediately.

What happens if I did not continue treatment?

The skin will return to its original state but the filling and plumping effect on the skin will have delayed further development of wrinkles.
