ANTI-AGEING INJECTABLES
Dermal fillers benefits are only temporary, often fading over four months; further treatments are required to keep the intended effect strong. After finishing therapy, you’ll return to normal in no time. In the days following the injection, some patients experience temporary side effects such as redness, bruising, and swelling. Possible side effects, such as a sagging eyebrow or puffy under-eyes, will be discussed during your appointment to reduce their severity. Our highly trained medical skin specialists have found that such adverse effects are uncommon. Depending on the individual, dermal fillers may take a few days to two weeks to fully take action.
Dermal fillers, when adequately injected, do not paralyse all facial expressions. A natural expression, rather than a frozen one, can be achieved by the precise placement of injections by our dermatologists, cosmetic specialists, and aesthetic nurses. Fillers enable targeted and specific reduction of muscle action, resulting in gradually softer lines and wrinkles and the appearance of younger, more vibrant skin. Injections must be administered with surgical precision to get optimal results with minimal adverse effects.
FILLERS FOR CLENCHING OF THE JAW AND GRINDING OF THE TEETH
Dermal filler injections into the jaw muscles can reduce muscle tension and stop clenching and grinding of the teeth. This not only helps to preserve tooth enamel but also alleviates pain in the face and head. The effects will be noticeable within one to three days of treatment and last three to six months.
DERMAL FILLERS
There are two primary varieties of dermal fillers. Fillers made with Hyaluronic Acid and those made with other substances. The skin naturally contains a chemical called hyaluronic acid. Dermal fillers like these are non-animal, biodegradable, and stable. Collagen and hyaluronic acid work together to maintain the skin’s elasticity, firmness, and plumpness in their youthful forms. At the Canterbury Skin and Laser Clinic, you will discuss the optimal treatment strategy to get your desired result, which may involve a combination of fillers.
Dermal fillers are injected into the skin in the same way that anti-wrinkle injections are, so the effects are visible right away. Treatment sessions last around 30 minutes; most patients report being comfortable and pain-free throughout. However, applying an anaesthetic lotion can assist if you are anxious about the procedure. Dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid typically last between 8 and 12 months; however, they can last 18 months in some patients. Dermal fillers can range from extremely thin to quite thick, giving them a highly adaptable treatment for a wide range of wrinkle depths. Injection sites may be red, swollen, bruised, and sensitive immediately following therapy, although these side effects usually dissipate within a day or two.
Lip fillers are one of our most requested dermal filler treatments. Dermal fillers are a therapy we have used to repair the lips’ scars and improve the appearance of thin lips, uneven lip shape, and smoker’s lines. Learn more about the lip filler procedure we provide here.
