Dermal Fillers — Facial Volumetry

Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers used to restore volume and definition where the face has flattened with age — cheeks, chin, jawline and the folds running from nose to mouth. Rather than only filling lines, the clinic plans volumetry across the face so proportions stay balanced. Plans range from a single ampoule to multi-syringe work, and hyaluronidase is available to dissolve filler should an adjustment ever be wanted.

Facial volumetry uses cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel to replace deep volume that is gradually lost from the cheeks, temples, chin and jawline with age. Because that volume loss is part of what drives sagging and deepening folds, restoring it in the right places is often associated with a more refreshed appearance than treating individual lines alone. At Derma Solutions the physician assesses the face as a whole and proposes a plan — from a single ampoule for a cheek or chin correction up to a structured approach using several syringes across one or more sessions. Numbing cream is applied first and most fillers also contain lidocaine for comfort. The gel is placed with a needle or a blunt cannula depending on the area; results are visible immediately and continue to settle over one to two weeks as any initial swelling resolves. Mild swelling, tenderness or small bruises are normal for a few days. Hyaluronic acid results commonly last several months to well over a year depending on the product and area before the gel is naturally broken down by the body. A practical safety feature of hyaluronic acid is that it can be dissolved with hyaluronidase, which the clinic offers if you want to reverse or fine-tune a result. Volumetry suits adults noticing flattening of the cheeks, a less defined jaw or chin, or deepening nasolabial and marionette folds; suitability is confirmed at consultation.
