Dermal Filler FAQ's
A dermal filler is injected under the skin via a needle or canula. The filler is a gel which provides a varied amount of volume and structure.
Injections can cause discomfort even when a very fine needle is used, especially in areas around the lips. Before any treatment is carried out a local anaesthetic cream can be applied and given time to numb the area. This together with an experienced practitioner will make the treatment a lot less painful.
The injection process itself is 15-30 minutes. Before a treatment takes place a safety, medical and aesthetic assessment will be undertaken to ensure quality and safety at all stages of treatment.
Results are subjective and very individual, the likely results will be discussed with you prior to any treatment. Typically, some dermal fillers can now show results for up to 18 months with the lip area typically lasting between 6 and 9 months.
