Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable hyaluronic acid gels that are used in a variety of different ways to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, boost skin volume, and add structure and symmetry to the face. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring 
substance and a major component of our skin.  It attracts water molecules , which is why it is such an effective tissue filler and can also help to hydrate the skin.

There are many brands of dermal fillers available, but some have a better safety profile than others. Most brands have several different fillers in their range to enable treating different areas. These will range from soft fillers to treat fine lines and lips to firmer fillers to give contour and shape. At Renew we only ever use premium filler brands such as Teoxane, Revanesse and Juvederm from reputable UK pharmacies. 

Fillers come in many different thicknesses for use depending on the area to be treated. For example a firm filler would be needed to sharpen the jawline, a voluminous filler to plump the cheeks, soft filler for lips and a very fluid filler for treating the tear troughs.  
Areas often treated include lips, cheeks, chin, jawline, nasolabial folds (nose to mouth lines), marionette lines (mouth to chin lines), smokers lines around mouth, down turned corners of mouth and tear troughs under the eyes.​
 

During the ageing process the face can lose volume and structures can weaken and start to sag. By placing dermal filler in specific anatomical regions it can revitalise and revolumise the tissues. This can create a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
 
Dermal filler can also be used to create more harmony to the facial features by creating more structure and balancing existing asymmetries. 
 
Treatments are carried out following a personalised consultation to discuss your requirements and assess your suitability for this treatment.  Topical anaesthetic cream or a small injection is used to numb the area so that you can be completely comfortable throughout. Filler is injected under the skin using small needles or cannulas depending on the area treated and the results required. Downtime is usually minimal , but there can be bruising, redness and swelling in the days / weeks following the treatment. For this reason it is advised to have treatments at least 3 weeks before any important event.  The results of the treatment are seen straight away and usually last between 6-18 months, varying from person to person and the area treated.
