Dermal fillers are a safe and effective procedure to help smooth out problem areas and tackle signs of skin ageing. Made of hyaluronic acid (HA), found naturally in the body, fillers volumize, augment and hydrate the skin.
Local anaesthetic is applied to the skin to minimise discomfort. They are generally not painful, however treatment around the nose and lips tends to be more uncomfortable than other areas.
Dermal fillers start from £350.
At River Aesthetics we use Ellansé® and Perfectha®.
6-12 months, this is dependent on filler used and the area which has been injected. The filler is naturally broken down by the body.
The most common side effects are bruising and swelling which should settle within 48 hours.
At River Aesthetics we use a cannula technique which helps to minimises the downtime.
