Restoring Volume, Contour and Smoothness
Dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance the body naturally contains, are injected to restore facial volume, soften wrinkles and sculpt natural contours. Different formulations suit different areas, such as the cheeks, lips, chin and fine lines.
Dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance the body naturally contains, are injected to restore facial volume, soften wrinkles and sculpt natural contours. Different formulations suit different areas, such as the cheeks, lips, chin and fine lines. Your physician chooses the product and depth for each area. Results are visible immediately and typically last 9 to 18 months, depending on the product and area.
Restore Volume
Replenish lost volume in cheeks and temples for a youthful lift.
Sculpt & Define
Enhance features like the chin, jawline, and nose bridge.
Smooth Lines

How It Works
Hyaluronic acid fillers integrate with skin tissue, restoring lost volume and structure by attracting and retaining moisture. Cross-linking gives a smoother texture, longer-lasting results and natural movement.

Pain Management

Natural Movement

Risks, side effects and who should not have fillers
Common side effects are temporary redness, swelling, tenderness and bruising. Rarely, filler can block a blood vessel (vascular occlusion), which needs urgent attention: severe pain, whitening or colour change of the skin, or vision changes after treatment mean you should contact us or seek emergency care right away. Hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed. Your physician will review your history and goals at consultation.

Common Questions
Do fillers hurt?+

Fillers can treat various areas including cheeks, lips, chin, jawline, under-eyes and fine lines.

Will it look natural?+
Natural-looking enhancement is the goal. Your physician plans for proportion rather than overfilling, so you look refreshed rather than 'done'.
