Dermal fillers are used to restore volume, enhance facial contours (cheeks, jawline, temples), and reduce deep static wrinkles. They provide immediate, natural-looking results that last 9–18 months.

Contraindications:

Pregnancy or breastfeeding

History of severe allergies or anaphylaxis

Active inflammation or infection in the treatment area

Blood clotting disorders or anticoagulant use (consultation required)

Procedure:

A numbing cream should be applied to the treatment area at least 30 minutes before the injection. This cream can be provided by the doctor in advance or purchased at a pharmacy without a prescription. At the clinic, the skin is cleansed and additional anesthetic may be applied if needed. The filler is then injected with a needle or cannula into the targeted areas. The session typically takes 20–40 minutes. Swelling, redness, or mild bruising may follow.

Aftercare:

Avoid touching, pressing, or massaging the area for 48 hours

No alcohol, exercise, or facials for 24–48 hours

Swelling or bruising may last several days

Remain upright for 4 hours post-injection
