Dermal Fillers
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are gels injected beneath the skin to add volume, support structure or smooth certain folds.
Fillers differ in their properties, and the choice depends on the area being treated and the effect intended. How long the effect lasts depends on the product used and individual factors, and is explained before treatment.
Concerns it may address
- Loss of volume in the cheeks or temples
- Lines from the nose to the mouth
- Lip shape and definition
- Chin and jawline definition
- Facial balance and proportion
Who it may suit
Fillers may suit adults who would like to address volume loss or refine a contour, and who prefer a measured, gradual approach.
- Volume loss related to age or facial structure
- A wish to refine, rather than change, your features
- Good general health and no active skin infection in the area
When it may not be suitable
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Active infection, cold sores or inflammation in the area
- Some autoimmune conditions, or a previous reaction to filler
- Recent dental treatment, for some areas of the face
- Concerns better suited to another approach, such as loose skin; a clinician may advise against proceeding
Alternatives that may be discussed
Where the concern is skin quality rather than volume, skin boosters may be more appropriate; for lines caused by movement, anti-wrinkle treatment. Individual areas are explained on the lip fillers, cheek fillers, chin fillers and jawline contouring pages.
Consultation and assessment
Your consultation assesses the whole face and explains which areas, if any, may benefit before any product is chosen.
Preparing for your consultation
- Photos from a few years ago, if they help explain what has changed
- Previous filler or injectable treatments, with products and dates if known
- Medicines and supplements, including blood thinners
- Your priorities, so the plan can be staged around them
Facial assessment
Your features, expression and skin are assessed at rest and in movement.
Medical history
Health, medicines, allergies and any previous treatments are reviewed.
Plan and consent
If treatment is appropriate, the plan, aftercare and possible side effects are explained before you consent.
Your filler appointment
Your clinician assesses the face as a whole and explains which areas, if any, may benefit. Technique and treatment planning vary according to the treatment area, clinical assessment and product selected.
Some plans are built gradually rather than all at once, depending on your assessment.
Why plans differ
Facial structure, skin quality and how volume has changed are different for everyone, so the areas, amount and staging of treatment are planned individually.
Recovery and downtime
Swelling, tenderness or bruising can occur after treatment and usually settles. Your clinician will advise you on aftercare, including avoiding pressure, heat and strenuous exercise for a short time.
Aftercare principles
- Avoid pressing or massaging the area unless advised
- Avoid heat and strenuous exercise for the time advised
- Expect some swelling, and judge the result only once it settles
- Seek advice promptly if you notice increasing pain or a change in skin colour
Safety and suitability
Fillers are not suitable for everyone. Rare but serious complications, including those affecting blood supply, can occur; they are explained at consultation, and treatment is carried out by a licensed clinician with knowledge of facial anatomy.
Injectable treatments are medical procedures and are not suitable for everyone, including during pregnancy or breastfeeding and with certain medical conditions. Temporary redness, swelling or bruising can occur, and less common side effects will be explained at consultation. Results vary from person to person.
Questions,
answered.
Will fillers look natural?
The aim is a result in proportion with your face. Plans are tailored and usually conservative, and treatment can be built up gradually.
How long do dermal fillers last?
This varies with the product, the area treated and individual factors. Your clinician will explain what to expect for your plan.
Can fillers be reversed?
This depends on the product used. Your clinician will explain the product proposed for you, and whether its effect can be reversed, before any treatment.
What is the difference between fillers and anti-wrinkle treatment?
Fillers add volume and support, while anti-wrinkle treatment relaxes the muscles that create expression lines. They address different concerns and are sometimes planned together.
Which areas can dermal fillers treat?
Fillers may be used for the lips, cheeks, chin, jawline and certain facial folds, depending on your assessment. Each area is planned in relation to the whole face.
How much does dermal filler treatment cost in Dubai?
The cost depends on your individual plan, including the areas treated and the product used. Fees and treatment options are discussed as part of the consultation.
