Dermal Fillers

What are Dermal Fillers? Dermal fillers are injectable gel-like substances made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain hydration and volume in the skin. By carefully injecting dermal fillers into targeted areas of the face, we can restore lost volume, soften wrinkles, and enhance facial contours for a more youthful and vibrant appearance. Benefits of Dermal Filler Treatment Restored Volume: Dermal fillers are an excellent option for restoring volume to areas of the face that have lost fullness over time, such as the cheeks, temples, and under-eye area. Softened Wrinkles and Lines: Dermal fillers can effectively fill in fine lines and wrinkles, including nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and vertical lip lines, for smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Enhanced Facial Contours: Whether you desire more defined cheekbones, a sharper jawline, or fuller lips, dermal fillers can help enhance your natural features and create a balanced, harmonious appearance. Customized Treatment: Gemma will work closely with you to understand your unique concerns and goals, tailoring a treatment plan specifically to address your needs and achieve optimal results. What to Expect During Dermal Filler Treatment ​During your dermal filler treatment at GLT Aesthetics, Gemma will conduct a thorough assessment of your facial anatomy and discuss your aesthetic goals. After determining the most appropriate filler and injection technique for your needs, they will carefully inject the filler into the targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, with any discomfort being brief and well-tolerated. ​Aftercare and Recovery ​ Following your dermal filler treatment, you may experience mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites, which typically subsides within a few days. It's essential to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol consumption for the first 24 to 48 hours to minimise swelling and promote optimal healing. You can generally resume your regular activities immediately after treatment, although you may be advised to avoid wearing makeup or touching the treated areas for a short period. ​Results ​You will notice an immediate improvement in the treated areas following your dermal filler treatment, with final results becoming more apparent as any swelling subsides. The results of dermal fillers typically last six to twelve months, depending on the type of filler used and the areas treated. Repeat treatments may be necessary to maintain your desired appearance over time. ​Schedule Your Dermal Filler Consultation Today ​Ready to enhance your natural beauty and achieve a more youthful, radiant appearance with dermal fillers?
