Structure,
not volume.
Hyaluronic acid fillers restore the support that thins with age — mid-face, temples, chin and jawline — and refine the lip when that is the goal.
We treat the face as a whole. Often the answer to a tired look is not more lip but a small amount of product in the right structural place.
Benefits
Placement is guided by anatomy, with cannula technique where it lowers risk.
- Lip definition and hydration without overfilling
- Cheek and mid-face support
- Chin projection and jawline definition
- Softening of nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Under-eye hollowing where appropriate
- Dissolvable — hyaluronic acid filler can be reversed
Treatment Areas We Address
Filler is placed with the whole face in view, because the areas work together — restoring one without considering its neighbours is what makes a result look treated rather than balanced.
Lips are addressed for definition, hydration and symmetry as much as for volume, with the border and proportion of the lip refined rather than simply enlarged. The cheeks and mid-face are where age-related volume loss usually shows first; replacing support there lifts the lower face and softens tiredness. The chin and jawline are treated for balance and definition, bringing the profile into proportion with the rest of the face. Under-eye hollows and the tear trough, where skin is thinnest, are addressed conservatively to reduce the shadowed, rested-look gap. And the nasolabial folds and marionette lines respond well to restoring the structure that has shifted above and around them, rather than filling the crease itself. At consultation, these areas are assessed together, and your provider recommends the combination that serves the whole face.
Types of Dermal Fillers We Use
We work primarily with hyaluronic acid filler families: the Juvéderm range — including Voluma for cheek and mid-face support, Volbella for subtle lip refinement, and Ultra for lips and lines — and the Restylane range, each with products formulated for different depths and areas. Product choice is not one-size-fits-all: it depends on the area being treated, the depth of support needed, the longevity you want and your goals, all of which are worked through at consultation.
Sculptra is a different category entirely — a collagen biostimulator rather than a traditional filler, placed to rebuild your own volume gradually over a series of sessions. You can read more on our Sculptra page.
What to Expect at Your Filler Consultation
Your appointment begins with the consultation itself. Your provider maps your facial anatomy and examines how volume has shifted, reviews any reference photos you bring and talks through what you want to change — and, just as importantly, what you want to preserve.
Health history is reviewed in full, including blood thinners, supplements that can increase bruising, and pregnancy or breastfeeding, all of which affect whether treatment is appropriate and when. From there, your provider builds a treatment plan: which areas, which product, and how much — erring conservative, since filler can always be added at a follow-up but is best not over-placed at once. If the plan is straightforward and you are ready, a first appointment may include treatment the same day; if more consideration is warranted, nothing is placed until you are comfortable.
Results vary and are not guaranteed. All treatments begin with a consultation.
How long does filler last?
Typically nine to eighteen months depending on the product and the area treated. Lips tend to metabolise faster than structural areas.
Will I bruise?
Some bruising and swelling is normal for a few days. Avoid alcohol, fish oil and NSAIDs beforehand where medically safe.
Can it be undone?
Yes. Hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if you are unhappy with the result.
How do I know how much filler I need?
The amount is based on your anatomy, the area being treated and your goals — there is no standard dose. Your provider recommends a starting amount at consultation and prefers a conservative approach, adding more at a follow-up if you would like.
What is the difference between filler and Botox?
Botox and other neuromodulators relax the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, like frown lines and crow's feet. Fillers restore volume and structure in areas where tissue has thinned or shifted. They treat different problems, and many patients benefit from both.
Can I get filler if I have had filler elsewhere before?
Yes. Your provider will assess what product is already present, how it has settled, and whether any of it needs to be dissolved before adding more. Being open about prior treatments helps ensure a safe and natural result.
