Dermal filler
What it is for
Dermal filler adds measured volume where it has naturally reduced with age, or refines a contour you would like to define more clearly. The aim is balance, not a changed look.

Dermal Filler
Hyaluronic acid filler used to restore volume, refine contours and soften defined lines, shaped conservatively around your natural features.

It may help with
- Reduced volume in the cheeks or midface
- Defined nasolabial folds or marionette lines
- A chin or jawline that you would like to define
- Lips: hydration, balance or gentle definition

How it works
A hyaluronic acid gel is placed precisely with a fine needle or cannula. The product attracts water and supports the area temporarily; it is metabolised by the body over time, and reversible if ever needed.
