Dermal Fillers — Hyaluronic Acid (Teosyal)

Dermal fillers at Dermafit use Teosyal hyaluronic-acid gels to add volume to the lips and to correct wrinkles in the lower face. Hyaluronic acid is a substance the body produces naturally, which is why it integrates well and carries a low risk of adverse reaction; in cross-linked gel form it is injected through a fine needle to fill a wrinkle line or shape and volumise the lips. The clinic uses the Teosyal Kiss formulation specifically for lip enhancement and a 1 ml Teosyal gel for wrinkle correction and facial volume, with anaesthetic cream applied first for comfort. Because Dermafit is a dermatology clinic, the physician assesses facial anatomy and skin condition before treating, and the result is visible immediately. Hyaluronic-acid filler matures fully within about a month and typically needs repeating every six to twelve months. Mild temporary redness, bruising or rarely small lumps at the injection site can occur and settle on their own.

Hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan that occurs naturally throughout the skin and connective tissue, where it binds water and gives tissue its volume and hydration. Because it is body-native, cross-linked hyaluronic-acid filler integrates smoothly into the dermis and has a very low rate of adverse reaction, which is why it has become the dominant injectable for soft-tissue correction. At Dermafit the brand used is Teosyal, a respected Swiss filler range. Two distinct indications are offered. For lip enhancement the clinic uses Teosyal Kiss, a formulation designed specifically for the mobile, delicate tissue of the lips, to add volume, restore age-related volume loss and define the lip border. For wrinkle correction and facial volume a 1 ml Teosyal gel is used, injected beneath the wrinkle line in the lower face to lift and fill creases such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines. The procedure is performed by a dermatology physician. The skin is cleansed, anaesthetic cream is applied for comfort, and the filler is introduced through a fine needle directly under the target wrinkle or into the lip body. Treating in a dermatology setting means the physician evaluates skin quality, anatomy and any lesions before injecting, and is equipped to manage the rare complications of filler. The result is visible immediately and continues to refine over the following weeks, reaching its final appearance within about a month as any initial swelling resolves. Hyaluronic-acid filler is gradually broken down by the body and the effect generally lasts six to twelve months before a repeat treatment is needed; a key advantage of HA filler is that it can be dissolved with an enzyme if a correction is wanted. Expected, temporary side-effects include redness, minor bruising and occasionally small palpable lumps at the injection site, which resolve spontaneously.
