Dermal Fillers for Facial Rejuvenation

The fundamental working principle of dermal fillers is ‘pumping’. This simply implies that they will pump up the area around the region that has received the injection, leveling with other parts of the skin, thus making it not look sunken by any means. Ultimately, different fillers may have this goal achieved in slightly different ways, but the bottom line result is that the skin will look plump and firm, young and refreshed.

Dermal Fillers for Facial Rejuvenation

What are Dermal Fillers?

dermalFillerAs skins ages it loses collagen and fat. This causes skin to sag and develop wrinkles and lines. Hyaluronic acid can help reduce the signs of aging by moisturizing the skin and return its elasticity and tone

Fillers used at Seraphim Aesthetics are non animal, natural hyaluronic acid implant which is injected into the skin. Using these dermal fillers for line reduction, skin becomes smooth and facial lines plumped out as the product works with the body's own hyaluronic acid to reduce signs of aging.

Are dermal fillers a safe anti - aging treatment?

Dermal fillers integrate with the surrounding tissue, allowing free passage of oxygen and hormones. This results in natural, healthy looking facial skin. Over time the fillers are broken down by natural biological processes and removed from the body.

 Where can dermal fillers be used?

  • Eyes – To smooth crow's feet
  • Brow – To smooth out frown lines between the eyes
  • Nasal Lines – To plump out the deep lines from the sides of the nose to the corners of the lips (naso-labial folds)
  • Lip Enhancement – Fuller, pouting lips: or on the lip/skin border for a subtler look (vermillion border)

What does this rejuvenation involve?

At the first consultation, Dr. Chandy will discuss your medical history and your expectations of the fillers' cosmetic effect. If this not suitable, she will discuss this with you and offer alternative wrinkle reduction treatments (such as Botox or Botulinum Toxin)

The filler is injected with a very fine needle just under the skin. To eliminate discomfort, a dental block wit local anaesthetic will be given to numb the treatment area. The whole process may take around 30-45 minutes.

How long do the anti-aging effects last?

Most dermal fillers last between 6 and 12 months. This can depend on lifestyle, skin type and age.
