Lips, Cheeks and Lines - Fillers - FLUID FACE LIFT

Dermal Fillers are effective solutions to facial lines and folds, sunken cheeks and enhance your lips - restoring volume and youthfulness. This is a very effective natural treatment that gently replenishes hyaluronic acid, reversing the 'tell-tale' signs of aging. Commonly used fillers include Restylane, Juvederm Ultra, Radiesse and Sub Q. Other fillers can be used on request.

FILLERS FREQUENTLY ASK QUESTIONS

What are dermal fillers?

A dermal filler is a substance which is injected into the superficial part of the skin to plump it up, make it firmer and smooth out lines and wrinkles.

There are many fillers on the market these days, but Dr Wolf only uses synthetically produced non-animal products consisting of hyaluronic acid which is a natural chemical constituent of the skin. These products are far less likely to produce allergic reactions than old-fashioned fillers such as collagen which is derived from animal products. Newer products are available based on poly-l-lactic acid, and a new collagen-based product which lasts up to 12 months with far fewer allergic reactions.

Are dermal fillers Safe?

Dermal fillers are extremely safe with a low incidence of allergic reaction. There is, however, a very small possibility of allergic reaction, which will be discussed with you when you come for your consultation. You can expect some degree of redness and swelling after the treatment, which usually clears up within 1-2 days.

How are dermal fillers done?

Depending on the area treated the filler is injected after application of a topical anaesthetic cream. Occasionally a local anaesthetic is injected to numb the upper and lower lips. The filler is then injected into the lines and defects to plump them out.

The filler remains in the skin where it binds water to produce a lift and firmness to the treated areas.

How long does the procedure take?

Treatments usually take around 30 minutes. For lip enhancement, a local anaesthetic injection is usually given to remove any discomfort.

How long do dermal fillers last?

Typically, the results can last six to nine months but this varies from one person to another. The filler is gradually broken down and absorbed by the body, so the lines, wrinkles or lips will ultimately return to their previous appearance without top up treatments.

Can Fillers be removed?

Fillers cannot be removed, but there is a substance that can be injected that will metabolise and break down the filler faster and your tissue will regain its previous look and shape.
