WHAT ARE THEY?

As the skin ages, it gradually loses some of its collagen, hyaluronic acid and fat. These are the materials that prevent the skin from becoming droopy or saggy. Dermal fillers help to restore our skin to its former youthful appearance. We inject this material into the skin in areas you need to plump up again and look firmer.  

Which one do you use?

There are many kinds of fillers, and new ones are coming onto the market every day. Generally, they consist of either collagen or hyaluronic acid and last 6-12 months. Some common brand names include Teosyal, Restylane, Hydrafill, Juvederm and Radiesse. We use Teosyal, which is an Award Winning 100% hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler.

We use it as it is a non-animal product, Dermal Fillers. It causes less pain and swelling on injection. Moreover, it is very versatile and has a superb safety record. Furthermore, it is temporary, allowing you to reassess your needs in 6-12 months. Clinicians injected over 600 000 syringes before January 2008.
