Skin Fillers - where to get wrinkles and lines reduced in Edinburgh

 
What are Fillers?

A dermal filler is a substance which is injected into the skin to plump it up, make it firmer and smooth out lines and wrinkles.

Once injected into the skin, fillers like Restylane and Perlane will lift, 'plump-out' and add volume to the areas being treated.

Give your mouth more volume, a fuller appearance and more sensuous form by enhancing the lips using dermal fillers. 

This can also produce a better lip definition and a reduction in lipstick bleed.

 

Facial Contouring

Cheek and chin dimples can be achieved using dermal fillers to smooth out the hollows and alter the facial contour. 

What type of fillers are available?

 

Available filler products are many and varied.  One option is to choose Restylane or Perlane which both consist of non-animal, stabilised Hyaluronic Acid (which occurs naturally in the body).  Both products work by replenishing the body's own supply of hyaluronic acid which is lost due to the ageing process.  The loss of HA causes the skin to become dryer and thinner, resulting in the appearance of facial lines.

How does it work ?

 

1.  The filler is injected, usually without the need for a local
     anaesthetic, into the lines to plump them out.

2.  The filler remains in the skin, where it binds with water to
     produce a lift and firmness to the treated area.

How long does it take?
 

Treatments usually take around 30 minutes. For lip enhancement, a local anaesthetic injection is usually given to prevent any discomfort.

How long does it last for?

How long fillers lasts varies from case to case. It depends on many factors, such as your age, skin type, lifestyle and muscle activity, but most patients choose to have a follow-up treatment in 4 to 12 months.
