What it is

A dermal filler is a gel placed under the skin to fill a crease or add volume. The effect is temporary. It is not Botox — toxin relaxes muscle; filler adds shape.

Common uses

• nasolabial folds

• sunken cheeks

• chin and nose bridge (selected cases)

• lips

• some scars and hollows

• deep wrinkles and furrows

It will not lift heavy sag the way surgery does.

Who it may not suit

Men and women can both be treated.

Tell us if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have had filler or lidocaine allergy, have an active skin infection at the site, or get cold sores.

If you have an event, treat early so swelling can settle.

​

What to expect

Time: a few minutes to about an hour, plus waiting time for cream.
After: no bandage. You may eat, drink, and wear makeup with sunscreen the same day.
Feel: redness, tenderness, swelling for a few days is common.

If you stop: the gel is absorbed over months. The face returns toward its previous shape. Filler does not permanently stop ageing.

Call the same day if the skin turns white or dusky, pain is severe, vision changes, or swelling is one-sided and worsening.
