Dermal Filler — Facial Volumetry (Hyaluronic Acid)

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 individual lines, the clinic plans volumetry across the face so proportions stay balanced. Treatments range from a single millilitre to a structured full-face plan, and hyaluronidase is available to dissolve filler should an adjustment ever be wanted.

Facial volumetry uses cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel to replace the deep volume gradually lost from the cheeks, temples, chin and jawline over time. Because that loss is much of what drives sagging and deepening folds, restoring it in the right places often does more for a refreshed look than treating lines one by one. At Skin-Medic the physician assesses the face as a whole and proposes a plan — from a single millilitre cheek or chin correction up to a multi-millilitre full-face approach carried out across one or more visits. Numbing cream is applied first and most fillers also contain lidocaine for comfort. The gel is placed with a fine 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 are commonly associated with a duration of around nine to eighteen months depending on the product and area before the gel is naturally broken down. 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 flatter cheeks, a less defined jaw or chin, or deepening nasolabial folds; suitability is confirmed at consultation.
