Dermal Fillers are biocompatible, which means they do not have a harmful effect on the human body. They are designed to create lift and add volume to key areas of the face that show signs of aging. The active ingredient in our dermal filler varies from a brand to another. Some use hyaluronic acid (HA), others like Radiesse, incorporates calcium hydroxyapatite, some are the combination of both.
You can normally expect to see the outcomes of dermal filler treatments instantly after the procedure. You may develop some swelling and bruising at first, that goes down over the next few days to a week.
Results differ depending on filler used volume used, and your body's response. For most patients, the final, optimal results of dermal filler injections become fully apparent within 1-2 weeks post-treatment when we use HA and 3 to 6 months for Calcium Hydroxyapatite an PLLA.
Dermal filler results typically last between 8 to 18 months, subject to the type of filler used, the area treated, and some individual factors. To maintain ideal results, regular touch-up treatments are recommended. It's essential to consult with a qualified doctor to decide the best treatment plan for lasting and natural-looking results.
As with any medical procedure, there are risks involved with the use of dermal fillers. Any dermal filler can cause short- or long-term side effects, permanent side effects, or a combination. However, most side effects associated with dermal fillers occur shortly after.
The most common side effects are bruising, redness, swelling, and mild pain.
Before your dermal filler treatment, avoid blood-thinning medications (aspirin and ibuprofen) to lower the risk of bruising.
