A dermal filler is a treatment that injects a gel (Hyaluronic acid) to restore youthful properties to your skin or enhance features of your face. Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in your skin. As you age, hyaluronic acid decreases and this is thought to contribute to the appearance of aged skin. By injecting hyaluronic acid, dermal fillers aim to restore an appearance of youthful, rejuvenated skin. Our doctors will hold a thorough consultation exploring your concerns and establish a treatment plan that is best suited to you. In cases where you are completely happy with your treatment plan, you may receive your dermal filler injections on the same day.

The injections may cause mild discomfort and there may be some soreness at the injection site after treatment. You will have numbing cream applied to these sites beforehand to help reduce the pain at the time of injection. The local anaesthetic in the dermal filler itself will help manage the pain after the treatment.
