DERMAL FILLERS
Dermal fillers are less invasive than traditional cosmetic procedures and can provide a more natural-looking result. They encompass a wide range of treatments which can be targeted to specific areas of concern. Dermal fillers, also known as facial fillers, contain a high level of hyaluronic acid which give skin its elasticity and volume by helping retain water. As part of the natural aging process, there is a loss of volume and elasticity in the skin. Dermal fillers can be used to soften lines and wrinkles as well as shaping and contouring various facial features – reintroducing youthful plumpness
Dermal fillers work by boosting the skin’s supply of hyaluronic acid. This injectable substance has a gel consistency made up of stabilised, non-animal hyaluronic acid, which is tissue-friendly and closely resembles the hyaluronic acid that exists naturally in the body. There are many different dermal filler gels available, though we at Astounding Skin Aesthetic use Juvéderm® and Teosyal® which are a premium brand with well established safety profiles. We also use the newer popular brand Revolax® with promising results and safety profiles that leads the market and gives outstanding results in a variety of different areas (including the cheeks, nose, and lips). Dermal fillers are long-lasting but not permanent with the result of a single filler treatment lasting between 12-18 months with Teosyal®, Revolax® and between 6 - 24 months with Juvéderm®.
Our Dermal Fillers are a safe, effective and minimally-invasive way to enhance your natural beauty. At Astounding skin Aesthetics we use the latest techniques and highest quality fillers to achieve the most natural-looking results. Whether you are looking to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, add volume to your lips, or restore fullness to the cheeks, we have a filler that is right for you.
