Dermal Fillers

Dermal Fillers at Chesterfield Clinic

Dermal Fillers are very popular treatments used to address skin conditions; such as deep lines, wrinkles and volume loss. This skin rejuvenation treatment is versatile and suitable for contouring and lifting the face.

Dermal Fillers are injected into the skin to give your face a natural volume, leaving your skin hydrated and more youthful.

We offer two types of dermal fillers at the clinic:

Do I need Dermal Fillers?

  • Do you feel that your face looks tired and dull?
  • Have you lost volume and would like a fuller face?
  • Do you have thick, static lines that are not addressed by anti-wrinkle treatment?
  • Are deep folds beginning to appear between nose and cheeks?
  • Are you developing jowls in the lower face?
  • Would you like to improve the proportions on your face or facial features, e.g. short chin, plumper cheeks, more defined jawline?
  • Are you beginning to see hollows appear or deepen around eyes?

How do Dermal Fillers work?

Dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring molecule found within our skin. They work by replacing lost volume in the face making our skin more plump, hydrated and defined. When injected under the skin, dermal fillers help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles that appear at rest.

The beauty of dermal fillers is that they also boost the production of our natural collagen and which continues to improve. Dermal fillers can also be used to reshape and beautify various features of our face.

There are various types of dermal fillers and choice depends on the overall outcome required.

What problems can dermal fillers treat?

  • Volume loss in cheeks and temples
  • Static lines and wrinkles on the face
  • Smile lines
  • Dark circles under eyes
  • Non-surgical nose job
  • Short or weak chin

How often should I have dermal filler treatments?

Who should not have dermal filler injections?

Dermal filler injections should not be used:
