Dermal Fillers
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are used to fill out or plump up lines on your face that have been created by the loss of elasticity due to ageing. By restoring the volume to these areas your skin will look smoother and softer, resulting in a fresher and more youthful appearance.
The dermal fillers used at Standish Street Dental Practice are synthetically produced consisting of hyaluronic acid, a natural chemical constituent of the skin which makes the treatment completely safe.
Dermal fillers can be used on eye lines, mouth lines, smile lines on the cheeks, chin indentations and frown lines between the eyebrows. Dermal fillers are quickly used to fill in thinning lips with immediately visible results achieved within minutes.
Our approved ranges of dermal fillers are also ideal for treating deeper lines on the forehead, around the eyes and mouth. Clinicians will recommend the most suited treatment tailored to your needs. The smoothening effect from dermal fillers is apparent quickly and lasts for up to six months. Treatments are undertaken by our clinicians following a comprehensive no obligation consultation.
Case Study
This lady was concerned about her thinning lips and the development of folds either side of her upper lip. She requested that we gradually change her appearance in order to bring about little attention. Our conservative treatment planning facilitates this progressive transformation.
Patient Concerns
- Thinning lips
- Development of naso-labial furrows
Treatment Plan
- To administer filler into the outer borders and body of the upper and lower lips
Procedure
- Complete facial assessment with pre-operative photographs
- Following the provision of adequate local anaesthetic, fillers were injected into the outer borders and body of upper and lower lips. A higher volume of dermal filler was required to soften the appearance of the naso-labial lines
- Review and free top up(s) if necessary
Result
Our client was satisfied with the end result. This required a couple of visits to achieve, but a conservative philosophy is always more natural than an overcorrected result.
