What are Derma Filler Treatments?
Derma filler treatments are cosmetic procedures that inject hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in the skin, into the facial areas that have lost volume, elasticity, or smoothness due to aging, sun exposure, or other factors. They’re ideal for individuals who want to restore or enhance their facial features, such as the lips, cheeks, chin, or nose.
Why Derma Filler Treatments?
Derma filler treatments are a popular option for individuals who want to achieve natural and long-lasting results, without the use of surgery or general anaesthesia. Derma filler treatments can also improve the appearance of the skin, by reducing the visibility of wrinkles, scars, or sagging.
The Treatment Procedure
The derma filler treatment procedure consists of the following steps:
- Consultation: A healthcare provider will assess your skin type, medical history, and aesthetic goals, and recommend the best type, amount, and placement of derma filler for you.
- Preparation: You will be advised to avoid certain medications, supplements, and alcohol for a few days before the treatment, and to arrive with a clean and moisturised face.
- Numbing: A topical anaesthetic cream or a local anaesthetic injection will be applied to your facial area, to minimise any discomfort during the procedure.
- Derma Filler: The provider will use a syringe with a fine needle, to inject small amounts of derma filler into the targeted areas of your face, creating a subtle and natural effect. The provider will also massage the treated areas, to ensure even distribution and smoothness of the filler.
- Aftercare: You will be given detailed instructions on how to care for your face after the treatment, such as avoiding water, sun exposure, and makeup for the first 24 hours, and applying a cooling gel or ice pack regularly. You will also be scheduled for a follow-up appointment to assess the results and make any adjustments if needed.
Benefits of Derma Filler Treatments
The derma filler treatments offer several benefits, such as:
- Improved Appearance: Derma filler treatments can improve the shape, volume, and contour of your facial features, giving you a more youthful, refreshed, and attractive look.
- Minimal Downtime: Derma filler treatments are non-surgical and minimally invasive procedures, which means you can resume your normal activities right after the treatment, with no scarring or recovery time.
- Natural Results: Derma filler treatments use hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance found in the skin, which means the results are natural and compatible with your body.
Potential Side Effects
While generally safe, derma filler treatments can cause some side effects, such as:
- Pain and Bleeding: During the procedure, which can be reduced with numbing cream or injection and pressure.
- Swelling and Bruising: After the procedure, which usually subside within a few days.
- Lumps and Irregularities: As the filler settles, which can be corrected with massage or additional injections.
- Infection and Allergic Reactions: Which are rare, but require immediate medical attention.
