Sydney Cosmetic Surgery - Dermal Fillers

 

Aesthetic Surgery Centre specialists use temporary and semi-permanent dermal fillers to improve your skin appearance...

Dermal fillers are used in cosmetic surgery to improve the skin’s appearance and to fill defects in the skin:

  • for fine lines e.g. around eyes
  • for thicker lines e.g. above lips and around mouth and chin area
  • for deeper lines e.g. nasolabial folds and lip enhancement (called “Paris lips”)

Temporary dermal fillers

There are many different types of dermal fillers on the market.

Hyaluronan Gel is a natural substance found throughout the human body. One of its functions is to keep the skin moist and elastic. The gel is made from a naturally occurring material, providing cushioning and support within the skin.

There are many dermal fillers to choose from and our staff will advise you about the most suitable type of treatment for your needs.

Dermal filler procedure

  • If possible, remove all makeup before the treatment
  • If desired, a cream may be applied for 30 minutes to numb the area first
  • Local anaesthesia may also be injected into the area
  • The dermal filler is injected directly into the skin using the finest needles
  • The procedure takes about half an hour to an hour and is performed in our Aesthetic Surgery Clinic
  • You may go home or straight back to work immediately

After your dermal filler treatment

Do not use oil based make up or moisturisers for the first 48 hours. Do not touch the area with unwashed hands.

Any redness or crusts should settle in 24 to 48 hours.

Please notify us of any persisting lumpiness, redness or itching to the treated area. Bruising can occur, but will resolve in a few days.

What results to expect from temporary dermal fillers

Improvement is immediate although a second top up treatment may be necessary. The effects last around six months, although can last longer depending on area injected and skin type.

A booster or top up treatment is advisable every 6 to 12 months with a dermal filler or anti-wrinkle treatment.

What types of treatments other than dermal fillers are available?
