Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are hyalorinic acid based gels which are injected into various layers within the face to enhance features, reduce shadows and lines, hydrate skin and replace volume loss.

As we age our bodies go through natural ageing processes, including volume loss in the fat pads of the face and bony reabsorption. Through strategic placement filler can help disguise this volume loss to produce a natural, rejuvenated look to the face. Fillers can also be used to balance and enhance facial features such as augmenting the chin and lips.
