Hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers can be used to sculpt the face and restore a natural, youthful look. Fillers are used to reduce wrinkles, enhance the lips, add volume to the face, and help to hide scars from acne, surgery and trauma. Fillers do not affect muscle motion or facial expression and can be used together with Botulinum toxin (Botox®). When fillers are injected properly, they look very natural and undetectable. Filler injections can be performed quickly and safely with minimal discomfort and they provide instant results. There are many types of fillers available on the market.
Serious problems are rare but can include:
- infection
- a lumpy appearance under the skin, which might need to be treated with surgery or medicine
- the filler moving away from the intended treatment area, which may need to be removed using surgery
- scarring
- blocked blood vessels in the face, which can cause tissue death and permanent blindness
Mr Saour will explain the risks fully with you during your consultation.
Results with the HA fillers generally last 6 months- 9 months. Some studies have shown evidence that the results last longer than 9- 12 months with repeated injections.
You should not get dermal filler injections if: you are allergic to lidocaine or hyaluronic acid, are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a herpes blister in the area to be treated, or if you have a disorder that prevents blood from clotting.
