Dermal fillers are injections that can lift and plump your lips, cheeks, jawline and other facial features to achieve a more youthful appearance and enhance shallow contours. The results are visible straight away, with softened facial creases, and can last for months or years.
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines, soften creases or enhance facial contours.
With a primary ingredient often being hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally exists in our bodies, they are designed to mimic the body's own hyaluronic acid, providing hydration and volume.
Dermal fillers work by boosting the skin's supply of hyaluronic acid, revitalising and adding volume to the skin. The gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The hyaluronic acid in the
fillers attracts moisture, which helps to plump up the area, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance. The results are natural-looking and subtle, with immediate visible effects.
Lip fillers provide volume, definition and hydration, crafting the desired shape and fullness a subtle enhancement or a more noticeable volume increase.

Adoreal connects you with certified clinics that uphold our high standards of care, innovation and patient satisfaction. Start today by finding a clinic that aligns with your aesthetic goals.

The injection process is precise and swift, typically involving a fine needle or cannula to introduce the filler into specific areas of the face. This is done with careful attention to your comfort, often with the application of a numbing agent to minimise any discomfort. The entire session usually takes less than an hour.
The results of dermal fillers are immediately noticeable and can be enhanced by the care taken in the days and weeks following the procedure.
Typically, results can last from 6 to 18 months. Lip fillers often require more frequent touch-ups, given the high mobility of the area. Note that the longevity varies depending on the type of filler used, the area treated and individual factors such as metabolism, lifestyle and skin condition.
Following your treatment, you will be provided comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and comfort. Key recommendations include:
• Avoiding excessive sun exposure
• Applying ice to reduce swelling
• Refraining from touching the treated areas unnecessarily
Many clinics also recommend scheduling follow-up appointments to assess the
treatment's progress and address any concerns.
While filler treatments are widely regarded as safe and effective, you should approach any aesthetic treatment with awareness and understanding. Common side-effects may include:
• Temporary redness
• Swelling
• Bruising
• Tenderness
• Allergic reactions
• Infection
• Asymmetry
To ensure the highest levels of safety and satisfaction, there are certain circumstances where individuals should refrain from dermal filler treatments. These include:
• During pregnancy or breastfeeding
• If you have a history of severe allergies or anaphylaxis
• In the presence of active skin infections or inflammation near the treatment area
• If you are taking medications that can increase bleeding or bruising risk
• If you have autoimmune conditions that may affect healing
During your consultation, a specialist will conduct a thorough assessment of your medical history and discuss any concerns to determine if a filler treatment is a suitable option for you.
