Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Filler

Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers used to soften deeper folds and restore volume and definition to areas such as the cheeks, chin and jawline. At Med-Derm the doctor plans treatment across the face so proportions stay balanced rather than simply filling individual lines, and pricing is transparent per 0.1 ml so you only pay for the volume used. Results are visible immediately and develop further as any swelling settles.

Dermal filler treatment uses cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel to replace volume that is gradually lost from the face with age and to smooth deeper static folds. Because that volume loss contributes to flattening of the cheeks and deepening of the lines running from nose to mouth, restoring it in the right places can do more for a refreshed appearance than treating lines in isolation. At Med-Derm the doctor assesses the face as a whole and proposes how much product to use, charged transparently per 0.1 ml so cost follows the volume needed. Numbing is used for comfort and most fillers also contain a local anaesthetic. The gel is placed with a fine needle or a blunt cannula depending on the area; results are visible straight away 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 typically last several months to over a year depending on the product and the area treated before the gel is naturally broken down by the body. A practical safety feature of hyaluronic acid is that it can be dissolved if an adjustment is wanted. The same per-millilitre approach covers wrinkle filling and facial contouring (volumetry). Filler is suited to adults noticing flattening of the cheeks, a less defined jaw or chin, or deepening folds; it is avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding, and suitability is confirmed at consultation.
