Dermal fillers are injectable treatments made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body. They are used to restore volume, reduce wrinkles, and enhance facial contours.

Dermal fillers work by replenishing lost volume and stimulating collagen production. The gel-like substance is injected into specific areas of the face to plump the skin, smooth wrinkles, and add definition to facial features.

Dermal fillers can be used to treat various areas, including the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, and under-eye hollows. They can also be used for non-surgical nose reshaping and chin augmentation.

Yes, dermal fillers are generally safe when administered by a qualified medical professional. They are non-permanent and reversible, and any potential side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site.

During the treatment, a numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort. The injections are performed using fine needles, and the procedure typically takes around 30 minutes. Afterward, you may experience some swelling or bruising, but this should subside within a few days. Results are noticeable immediately and can last several months, depending on the type of filler used. Regular maintenance treatments can help maintain the desired effects.
