How do dermal fillers work?
Throughout the ageing process we lose some of the skin’s ‘building blocks’ such as collagen and fat, which are the materials that prevent skin becoming loose, allowing fine lines and wrinkles to appear. As we age, our skin becomes thinner and more visible lines and wrinkles start to appear. The facial bones and fat pads begin to shrink accelerating the creation of folds and deep wrinkles. The dermal filler acts as a replacement for the lost fat and helps to restore our skin to its former youthful appearance. The product is carefully injected into different layers of the skin depending on the type of filler selected and the patient’s needs. Dermal fillers are available in different thicknesses and viscosity that match to the patients’ needs. The thicker products are generally reserved for deep folds or wrinkles, whilst smoother product is used to plump out fine lines and wrinkles.
What are the Benefits of Dermal Filler?
How painful are the dermal filler injections?
As a local topical anaesthetic cream is applied 20 -30 minutes before treatment, most patients find the injections tolerable with slight initial discomfort.
Who will carry out my Dermal Filler treatments?
Your treatment will be carried out by one of our trained medical professionals, either a Nurse or a Dr.
How long does the dermal fillers last?
Typically, most fillers last around six to nine months, with the exact time depending on the area applied and the individual patient, as some patients’ bodies break down the fillers faster than others.
What does the dermal filler procedure involve?
The first step in the process is to arrange a consultation with a practitioner. At your consultation the practitioner will take details of patient medical history, current medication and complete a care plan, having discussed the patient’s requirements and expectations. The practitioner will then be in a position to advise treatment options and make individual treatment recommendations. Treatments generally take between 30 – 45 minutes. A topical anaesthetic cream will be applied prior to appointment to maximise patient comfort during the procedure. After having the injection, the practitioner will give patients aftercare advice and information.
Are there any side-effects?
Occasional side-effects would include temporary redness, tenderness during injections, and swelling and bruising at the injection sites. However, these would normally be expected to settle within a matter of hours.
It’s important you continue to show your skin some love following your treatment at Grand Aesthetics to get the best results. You’ll be prescribed a bespoke course of treatments and home care products to take with you, all of which will be explained in detail. Make sure you’re following the recommended routine between each of your appointments at our clinic to enhance the effects of your aesthetic treatments.
