Dermal Fillers

As we age, our skin loses elasticity and we naturally lose proteins and facial fat that keeps us looking youthful. This transpires as volume loss and begins to become visible as the top half of our face begins to sag and the bottom half appears wider. Dermal Fillers are an effective, non-surgical treatment option to restore your youth by refreshing your appearance and enhancing areas of your face.

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are made of Hyaluronic acid which is a substance that occurs naturally in your body to provide your skin with elasticity. At The Clinic, we use the leading brand of fillers, Juvederm. Juvederm’s hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are built on Allergan’s heritage of quality, science and meaningful innovation. Carefully designed with specific properties to address the most popularly treated areas of the face.

Other leading dermal fillers available on request although Juvederm is our preferred dermal filler and supported by extensive clinical research and data.

What are the benefits of Dermal Fillers?

As the dermal fillers we use contain a naturally occurring substance that is safe and effective, this treatment is suitable for a range of patients. Dermal fillers are an effective treatment to reduce signs of ageing and/ or add volume to better sculpt your face.

Dermal fillers are ideal to treat lines and wrinkles whilst restoring plumpness in the skin meaning it is ideal to soften facial lines, particularly around the mouth including smokers lines and nasolabial folds.

Our lip enhancement treatment is perfect for those looking for fuller, softer lips whilst keeping them looking natural. Facial contouring is also a popular option amongst both men and women, using dermal fillers in the cheeks, jawline and chin to add structure and definition to the face, whilst our tear trough treatment can help refresh a tired appearance.
